    i'm not surpprise the Rocks are playing with such intensity. what i find surprising is that they're finding ways to gut out the win! that last game against the Suns, they had no business winning that one and yet they blow out the suns in the fourth.

    my question is with such a long season, 78 games to go, can they sustain such sense of purpose and desire to win?

    LA,

    For the time being it looks like the Rox are going to have to grind hard just to get wins. It will take them a while to assimilate new players and adjust to hybrid zone defenses.

    They don't have the luxury of many easy baskets (offensive put backs, fast breaks etc.) right now, so intensity esp. at the defensive end, will be the key to sustaining a good start.
