Rudy claims he has a whole new arsenal of offensive plays, do you beleive him? Will the Rockets start passing the ball 4-5 times, like the Kings & Mavericks. Will Moochie be used as a backup? or will he be our #1 PG in the 4th quarter? So the question for this poll is will we see the same old ISO's and three guard lineups down the stretch? Bad habits are hard to break, so we get our first look tonight!!!!
I hope we don't use the three guard lineup. Our offense may be ok with it, but it really hurts defensively.
The 2 guard lineup was one of the reasons we lost so many close games. When you are giving up 2 inches at PG, 4 inches at SG & 4-5 plus at the SF position, you are mis matched (not creating a mismatch). Offense: That rotation does not produce easy shots and if the shot does not fall you have a much more difficult time getting the rebound. Defense: None of those 3 guards a even average defenders, and the lineup allows the other team can post you up each time down the court creating easy shots.
I hope not. This team is too damn deep and too damn talented in the froncourt this year for Rudy to start with that three guard lineup crap. I wouldn't put it pass him though. That Philedelphia game he put Hawkins, who is a shooting guard, in for Nachbar, who is a legit small foward, and Nachbar was having a hell of a game. So who knows.
With the short bench tonight, yes there most probably will be a 3 guard lineup used. As for when the team is healthy, I see no point and I pray it doesn't happen too often.
