@  BenQueens : (23 May 2013 - 04:03 AM) Well, that finish was worth staying up for. G'night!
@  2016Champions : (23 May 2013 - 04:00 AM) Melo: "Why couldn't Vogel sub Hibbert out game 6?"
@  BenQueens : (23 May 2013 - 03:54 AM) The overhead shot of that play is amazing. He read where George was going perfectly.
@  2016Champions : (23 May 2013 - 03:53 AM) Frank Vogel is going to answer for his decision to bench Hibbert during this moments
@  RollingWave : (23 May 2013 - 03:53 AM) Lebron James should be playing at a higher league
@  2016Champions : (23 May 2013 - 03:52 AM) He just makes it look so easy.
@  BenQueens : (23 May 2013 - 03:51 AM) Hibbert shaking his head right there- that's brutal.
@  2016Champions : (23 May 2013 - 03:50 AM) Are you serious Lebron?!!! wow!!
@  BenQueens : (23 May 2013 - 03:50 AM) Wow.
@  2016Champions : (23 May 2013 - 03:49 AM) lol
@  BenQueens : (23 May 2013 - 03:48 AM) You know that Gatorade commercial where D Wade wakes up in a cold sweat from a nightmare? I guess Paul George is in the sequel.
@  2016Champions : (23 May 2013 - 03:45 AM) Frank Vogel: "I don't usually take Hibbert out the game when I need a crucial stop... but when I do it's in the playoffs"
@  2016Champions : (23 May 2013 - 03:42 AM) Chris Bosh: "I don't usually grab rebounds but when I do... it's a HUGE offensive putback 3 point play"
@  RollingWave : (23 May 2013 - 03:21 AM) Paul effing George!!!!!!!
@  BenQueens : (23 May 2013 - 02:15 AM) It's still jarring to see elite teams like MIA and SAS completely ignoring offensive rebounds.
@  BenQueens : (23 May 2013 - 02:04 AM) Haslem really knows how to blow a layup.
@  2016Champions : (23 May 2013 - 01:37 AM) Hi Ken
@  Ken Yang : (22 May 2013 - 03:00 PM) Hey Guys
@  bboley24 : (20 May 2013 - 09:35 PM) TWill...  stay classy.

Man, is this team ever fun to watch (rabbit ears won't pick up the games, you need cable). I don't see any other style that this team could play that would be as successful as this style. They're too young and too newly formed to be able to best older and more experienced opponents at their own game. What is the only thing our team has more of than any other team in the league? Youth. It is our ONLY edge. What one advantages does youth bring? Speed and stamina. It would be foolish not to exploit the one and only thing that sets us apart. Can we keep up this pace all season? Why not? We're 10 deep with youth and there's not a huge talent drop off, save for Harden, coming off the bench. We can manage exhaustion. This pace is even more tiring for the older opponents we face and their stamina will also wane as the season nears the end.

Nice article. I do think that, for now, our pace will not have much, if any, adverse effect over the course of the season. Perhaps this is part of why our defense is sub-par. By reducing defensive intensity they can conserve energy and put it into the offense. The final score doesn't matter...as long as we have one more point than the opponent does. I would still like to see a better PD for the Rockets, but I'll take wins all day long.

What about starting Parsons at the PF and Delfino at the SF? If we did that we could trade one of our many PFs for a backup SF. We could get Stephen Jackson from SA as an expiring contract if the price is right. What do you all think?

Why so Serious? :D

I like Jackson as a player, but not interested in trading for him....maybe as a FA though....
