I don't think they should really go for pure fastbreaks, since that will tire Yao out. Instead, we should push the ball quickly so that TMac can...
Here is what I expect the matchups to be. 1. When we're on offense Yao v Okur Hayes v Boozer TMac v Kirilenko Battier v Fisher/Harpring...
Barkley was a slightly better passer than Hakeem. But that's not the reason he won the seattle series for us. Seattle's game plan was to...
That Dallas was deeper, more experienced, and just plain more talented than this year's Jazz team. I haven't watch much Jazz games this year,...
With Okur and Boozer, they have players who can at least provide scoring output at the equivalent position Yao plays. But they are in big trouble...
It's not going to happen. Even if we win all the rest of our games (giving us an 18 game winning streak!), SA would have to lose 5 times out of...
The difference in percentage b/w wins and losses is not statistically significant. Since you're a stats guy, I'm going to geek out on the...
The biggest question is: who could we get that is better? He's a solid player who is worth about what we pay him (5 million or so?). Low...
Shaq, in his prime, was more dominating. Once he got the ball in the post, players felt like they had accomplished a lot if they didn't get dunked...
VSpan's problem is that he is simply a bad passer. People may want him to replace Rafer, but he is likely to be a much worse assist man and ball...
The prob with Vspan is that his style is not well-suited to the team. He is an up-tempo guy who gambles a lot both on passes and on defense....
KMart has been overrated his whole career and is now probably a scrub. He might be worth a gamble (if we can get him for 3-4 million), though I...
Every Rockets fan in his right mind knows we are underdogs to Dallas and Phoenix. That's why we have so many more losses than they do... That...
I think the OP just doesn't really understand basketball strategy too well. He seems to not realize how big of an effect coaching/game planning...
Sefolosha could be good, but he's probably not the right fit for us now. Too young, and we want to win now.
Duhon would be great for us: Bonzi + Sura + 2nd round pick might be good enough, depending on how bad Chicago wants to win now. Chicago is pretty...
Rafer isn't bad in our system -- solid ballhandling, good defense, good decision making, and unselfish. He's better than most of the PG above, but...
I'm as angry about yesterday's loss as anybody, but I think JVG deserves a lot of credit for the amazing defensive job the Rox did yesterday. The...
Gay is doing a little better now, but I don't know why people think that meeans he's going to be a star. There are many many steps in between...
I can't agree with this Rocket lineup. Dallas has an advantage at every position except versus TMac. Yao >> Deke. The only solution is to find a...
