    Agreed with this, and I saw that article on how just putting a hand up helps so much, more than even distance from the shooter. And I can't really mind so much that both Lin and Harden cheats on steals, especially when playing together, because I remember reading in one of those Sloan analytic papers that having more than one person good with steals on the floor exponentially improves steals for the team (good synergy; ironically having two good defensive rebounders is bad synergy, though two offensive rebounders have good synergy).

    But yeah, closing out and having a hand up... or at LEAST having a hand up. :rolleyes:
