    o i am not i don't understand. He just scares me specially when he is not hitting those shots, and also the playoffs slow down a lot. RA would have to be very careful how he handled that one that is all

    I haven't been Rafer's biggest fan over the years. But even I will tell you that it's way too late to make that kind of radical change at this juncture.

    avery johnson told devin harris to be a one man fast break. meaning, even if no one else is running with you, force the action and see what happens.

    i would love for adelman to give brooks that kind of freedom. of course, you have to trust the guy not to take a 1-on-5 shot.

    he's just so fast that he might beat the whole opposing team back and find an easy basket or get fouled.

    That end to end is why brooks should play more. The spurs off a good defensive stand gives it to parker and it on. The rebound should be passed to hash mark and brooks should get ghost. That's how to get easy baskets.

    Put brooks in pnr and watch him get to the rim.

    Is me or anyone notice this, when Tmac on the court, when he handle the ball, our movement is slow.

    Play in smart way please. Tmac should patient a little bit when he is not hot.

    :( Landry's explosiveness is gone? Man, the injury seemed to have inhibited him a lot...

    Somehow, if Brooks was able to develop more (maybe next year). His speed will probably become a big thread. Last time I checked, teams have trouble stopping paul and parker. Last year's finals the cavs could not stop parker, he was crazy out there.

    In general, I don't understand why RA insists on sticking with his shorter rotation when you have certain guys that can play a solid role for like 5-10 mins a game... I understand there are issues with chemistry but I really liked the rotation of our role players being the second squad coming in... it seems like the rotation is shortened more now and this hurts when guys like rafer, and even tmac, are off on their shooting

    Defensive 3. Even though it is for us, I hate this rule.
