    Cool, and you would have thought that jazz would be using it more.

    Pick and Roll was our butter and bread play back then with McGrady and Yao. That combo was perfect with a guy as tall as Yao rolling to the basket (making it impossible for smaller defenders to guard him) and a tall guard like McGrady who can go for a jumpshot over the defender.

    Too bad we didn't have much of a team back then.
