We have seen it work to great effect several times throughout the season, but we have also seen the Rockets get killed by it. Advantages: -Better on offense -Better at forcing turnovers on other end -Better at help defense (easier to double post players due to mobility) -Faster Disadvantages: -Terrible at Rebounding -No shot-blockers (besides the occasional PPat block) How do you guys feel about it? I personally am fine with it because it has won the Rockets alot more games than it has lost. This lineup has also gotten Rockets back in a couple of games such as the Grizzlies and Timberwolves game.
Right now, seems to work as a defensive tactic to disrupt the opposing team. Decent enough offensively, but would be better if the PF (Parsons) can hit his 3s more consistently to spread the court.
i like it at certain occasions and against certain teams... but its all about matchups and thats all it boils down to..
Usually the PPat, Parsons, Lee, Martin/Dragic, Lowry lineup is the more effective one, anyway. Great for energy, terrible for defensive rebounding.
