    Thank you Ricky for adopting our new theme. "If you're playing well you play, if not, we have a seat on the bench for you." . In the past we would have to struggle watching Rafer shoot less than 35% and throw crazy A passes. Luther do the same and get posted up all day everyday. Moody and No D Tmac.

    I love watching Ricky make adjustments to our favor and giving youngsters the opportunity to contribute if the starters aren't playing well. Morey also deserves credit for getting players to fit our system.

    This system will serve us well in the playoffs

    Thats basically how it is and the depth alows us to do that..........

    If Rafer does bad bring in Bjax....if he does bad bring in Brooks

    Then,, If Scola Does bad bring in Landry......Then Chuck Hayes.....


    Cant say that with The Shooting Gaurd, small forward or Center Position......But we will be fine

    PS.....Trade Luther Head......Way to incosistant......Get what a hustler for him

    Our key to our success in the playoffs, all relies on a little guy we picked up on 2/21 named Bobby Jackson. Smart basketball IQ, and ability to get other guys the ball at the right time will be the difference maker. Don't count on Aaron Brooks bringing it when Rafer is struggling.

    Not the whole, but when he is not feeling it he needs to sit for several minutes. Of course T-Mac is superstar our only one. It refeers more to Rafer I belive.

    I liked it better the first time. When Rudy did it.

    if tmac doesnt feel it, he should penetrate and get those fts. if he keep shooting fts he can regain his 'hotness' :)

    It feels good to watch games & not worry about the coaching moves for half of it. Rick is very impressive with his matchups & I love watching the hightlights & hearing every guy on the team getting tick and scoring. C.O.Y.? I think so....I would love to hear his speech when Yao went down

    Adelman like Rudy can "yank" a player out without them taking it the wrong way. He calmy just keeps the hotter hand in, good work by him. Its the same no matter how you look at it still - contributor plays, non-contributor on the bench

    We're not talking about if Scola or Battier is off then bring in someone else, this is Rafer all the way :p No matter how hot Rafer gets you still need to sub in the other guys and make it a balanced guard rotation. It limits Rafers shots, keeps everyone fresh, and everyone competing.
