    zone isn't really working...unless the goal was to get Wallace in an offensive rhythm.

    I've always contended zone should be only run as a change of pace defense for a small amount of time in the NBA.

    The more I watch Scola, I think Yao's greatest issue in the offense is that his decision making is too slow. Scola instantly gets the ball up or has an offensive move in mind when he gets possession.

    you only play zone for small stretches. it confused the pistons earlier on but they caught on.

    and yet adelman stuck with it for now over 9 minutes. :rolleyes:

    our offense is good, but it's being wasted b/c of our zone.

    maybe you should actually have the team practice the zone before we use it in a game rick.

    Battier has been pretty lousy lately, on both ends of the court.

    I missed the Pacer game. Did Yao get hurt? Why isn't he playing?

    our offense is pretty darn good ...

    our d surprised and shocked them initially but now they've solved it ...

    i wonder if they should go bak to man to man defense. i dont think they have enough of a post presence to take advantage.
