Love this entire post, great read. My rebuttal would be that that's why we have Chris Finch on our bench. The man is all about exploiting match-ups regardless of the team we are playing. A great coach can beat great players. Running teams have struggled in the past, but I don't recall a rebounding running team like this one ever having been in the playoffs. I'm not saying you are wrong, Raven, but I am saying I'd like to see what this particular running team will do with a playoff series or two.
Worst thing you can do is bring in a stat padder with low b-ball IQ in a running game. Josh Smith is 1 of those lower IQ types that can't keep up with Lin, Harden and company in that regard.
