Near playoffs most coachs have a 8 man rotation. This is nothing new. You can't base things so people may get hurt. If someone gets hurt he will be replaced by someone out of the rotation now.
I don't think it's in the Webster's Dictionary. But any good Google search will define "rotation" for you as it applies to the NBA.
yeah, wafer's vision is not so great... once the ball goes to him, no one else is gonna get it. I like that he's aggressive and confident, but there are gonna be nights when his shot is off. there were 2 or 3 plays during the toronto game when he should've given it to yao in the post, and 1 play when battier was wide open on the other wing and he simply didn't see him.
