    it will seriously save us about 40% of the time... the other 60% you lose

    obviously that loses you most series, turn it the other way and you probably win the series. that's houston's dilemna with "tmac ball"

    Winning is everything.... Anybody can score 30+pts and grab a bunch of rebounds, but if you don't win a game, then everybody will forget about this like a toasted PB&J bread on the counter...

    I am as pessimistic about this team as they come, but this was a meaningful win more than people realize.

    Yes, Minnesota is a lower-tier team but we had everything to lose and playing on the road is tough for every team in this league. Minnesota took out Phoenix twice. They had nothing to lose.

    Better win than many will give credit for...

    besides, does kobe set up a triangle play with the game on the line? or does he go with an iso or PnR?

    I love the last minute substitions. Taking Yao on the defensive end. Putting Aaron Brooks to speed around the court and force the Wolves to chase him down for the foul. Adelman is doing great.

    yao is probably the most "3-second conscious" big man i've ever seen. he's constantly ducking in and out of the lane trying to avoid them (b/c he knows he'll get called). jefferson sets up camp and then roasts some marshmallows.

    You will have to look under Al Jefferson's shoe to find him.
