Video of what Zach calls "a fun little play [that the Rockets] should keep [...] coming": <iframe width="640" height="360"...
Because you don't really know you're talking about. I can appreciate you trying to educate folks and do research on read-and-react offense, but...
I'm sorry, but this just isn't true. Yes, help-defense matters a great deal, but saying that the entire goal of pick and roll defense is to get...
Read and react basketball has been around for far longer than Rick Robett's system/guidelines/whatever. He just put a "The" before it and markets...
Everything bmd said is 100% correct, actually. There is no such thing as the read and react offense. The Rockets have a read and react system,...
Please no. No. No. No. No. And why would backup center be a priority? Makes no sense to me. Okafor probably will get bought out at the deadline....
Morey once said he does not believe in changing head coaches mid-season as well. So, ya... don't get your hopes up.
I was being sarcastic, which wasn't directed at you, but rather the folks who seem upset Asik hasn't been traded yet. I fully agree with your...
Well, in that case the Rockets must be tanking to improve the value of their 2014 first rounder up come trade time, right? Morey so smart!...

Wrong again. There was not supposed to be any flex action going on. The Rockets signal for flex action out of Horns is elbow: [IMG] The signal...
Again, a better pass + a better/proper screen = success. The rest is secondary. Here's the same play from last nights game with Harden standing...
What I meant to say that the players in the corner are interchangeable. The Rockets have successfully run this set with Harden in the corner the...
Meh. Lin may have wanted them to change sides, but there is no corner either of them is supposed to be in. If Lin makes a better pass and...
Haha. Harden did exactly what he was supposed to. The play Lin called is a pick and roll out Horns, with the initial screener (the PF) then...
Synergy's defensive numbers aren't particular useful, see http://hoopspeak.com/2012/01/stop-synergy-abuse/ Beverley is better at fighting...
Not really. Some of the concepts on offense are the same and there's some minor playbook overlap, but that's the case with numerous teams. The...
53.1%, which is elite, but probably not sustainable....
Well, duh. :) Fun stat though: LMA leads the league with 49 attempted mid-range jumpers in three games. The Rockets as a team have attempted 29...
