I disagree. Some players are better with their back to the basket. Some players are better facing the basket. David Robinson had a game facing...
Lue is in his last year. That's a big factor.
I often hear questions like, "What's the best zone defense?" If there was a correct answer to that question, most teams would be running the...
"It's never going to be over as far as an endpoint," Francis said at Thursday's practice. "He's going to coach the way he wants to coach, and I'm...
