    34 points, penetrating, 3 pointing, assisting..... what an all star performance. what will they do to bring brooks out of the game. will he be doubled?

    just so tired about such many yao tracy trading threads, let's talk about these warriors on the court

    They will undoubtedly clog the lane.

    There's not much they can do if he has his jumper working. I see him launching another 5-7 threes tonight. If he can hit a couple quick Js to start the game, the Lakers will be at his mercy. :cool:

    I'm with you. I expect Farmar to see more minutes in game 5, while Fisher's should decrease.

    they are going to leave Chuck open and double AB and everyone else with his man.. we saw that at the end of the game on Sunday.. im just hoping this will backfire and Chuck will have an offensive explosion of 6 points!

    "must take ball out of Brooks' hands."


    They will leave Artest wide open.

    I saw Chuck scores near the rim where nobody is defending him in Jeff's time, but not so much now.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Fisher gives another hard foul on Brooks to knock him on his ass.

    I also wouldn't be surprised if Fisher, Farmer, and Brown get away with more holding since the game will be in LA.

    I expect them to clog the paint, and to probably lay off Hayes and ignore him, essentially playing a 4 vs 5 offense.

    They'll make him finish at the basket without doubling.

    you see some 5'11", 160 lbs dude who's been kicking your teams butts collectively. pretend you are some 6'8" or taller clearly outweighing this guy by at least 60 pounds seeing him drive to your lane... you'd probably test the law of physics on this play.

    i expect hard fouls on him from the lakers. as a rocket fan, i expect him to bounce back and prevail.

    NOTHING + Brooks is inconcistent. I wouldn't be suprised if he shot 3/11 tonight.

    They will probably double him and be over aggressive in thier paint defense against him. If he can get a few quick assists to cutters such as Scola and Hayes early, they may have to go back and play him straight.

    This is what I'm afraid of.. We all remember when AD gave Fish a little nudge that Fish thought it was a dirty play (yeah i know hilarious) Fish got physical and confrontational with AB soon after.. AB was completely taken out of his game

    I'm scared if AB is antagonized physically he will become unsure of his abilities.. lets hope this isn't the case now that he sees hes virtually unstoppable
