    Will the NBA's proposed change in the rules to allow zone defenses, but at the same time limit a defender's time in the paint to 3 seconds, hurt the Rockets? It sounds like the NBA owners/execs are doing their best to try and stop the Rockets-style offense and prevent our guys from using their strengths. Maybe I've missed the thread, but I haven't seen anything mentioned on this -- thus my first post after just avidly reading this BBS for close to two years. Can someone comment on what effect this new rule might have next year on our team? Should we be concerned???

    Zone defense SUCKS. That will lower the scoring even more.
