    Can a Stotts-defender explain to me what Stotts' strategy is when Dame gets trapped right now? Surely they must think he's doing something right against it and I wanna see what they see.

    If we lose we gonna play the Clippers which basicly means a guaranteed first round exit. Pretty simple

    Lot it on Dame reading and passing the ball quicker.

    I disagree a lot with Stotts but I have no problem with using an 8 man rotation on back to backs. These guys are well-conditioned athletes in their 20's and early 30's. No reason they can't play 35 minutes of high intensity basketball two nights in a row. I want him to play the guys who have proven they are effective.

    Phoenix's only offensive strategy right now is to attack Kanter every time
