[Ferguson_Mellochill]

I would like to see us test out a small ball lineup as follows:

(5) Paschall
(4) House
(3) Royce
(2) Don
(1) Mike

Might that work in the Playoffs? I really don’t want to see Paschall play less when Gay comes back. I want to see more development from Paschall.

Geez, might House be the missing piece? It might be nice to have one more 3 and D guy instead of NAW.

House is a pretty ideal backup at the 3 for the modern game. He can guard 1-4, make open 3pt shots, move the ball, and make some athletic plays. The problem with Paschall is that he doesn't rebound enough. I'm not sure why that is. The Jazz need his energy and toughness on the floor.

I don't think you can play Mike in small ball. If you replace Mike with Gay, that would be a lineup I'd like to see.

I hope Whiteside dominating Wood made y'all rethink your love affair with him

One game, dimwit.

After all those losses it doesn't feel like 6 straight wins.

 

[The Thriller]

We got 35 pts, 24 rebounds, and 4 blocks from our center position last night. If we get THAT kind of production from the center position consistently, Phx better watch out.

 

[The Thriller]

Mitchell playing darn near the best ball I've ever seen. 9-15 shooting, 30 pts, 7 assists, and 6 boards. Those are prime Flash numbers. He controlled the game.

Paschall is more of a 4 than a 5. Take him as a poorman's Morris Sr if you will. Can score OK but doesn't do anything else you’d expect from a big man. We just don't have enough size and defense at the 3/4 spot to justify going small.

Nice to know that in Butler we already have our future PG.

Right now the whole team is playing great. I would love to see Royce and mike shut down for ten days to let them recharge. That way they come back for the playoffs with a full battery

All star break

Not a bad small-ball lineup.

As opposed to the small-ball lineup I want to see this lineup for just a couple of minutes at some point, just for fun:

Doke
Gobert
Whiteside
O'Neale
DM

Just play a zone. No one can score anywhere. Would be fun to watch for a few minutes.

We can score but it'd be a nightmare defensively

I think this deserves it's own thread. I'll start one.

I need a gif of that thing Hassan did with his head when he was flexing on the Rockets. Dude is one of the most entertaining ****ers I have ever seen.

That head was on a SWIVEL.
