The Celtics were running a lot in this years playoffs. If CHI could add Bosh and LeBron they'd be able to run because they'd be able to rebound. Running doesn't always mean soft. As far as the half-court goes what happens if LeBron can catch the ball around the free throw line or elbows as opposed to the top of the 3 pt line with 5 guys watching him? Could be scary. Your original point of how effective these guys can be together is not without merit however.
In fact, the Celtics were at there best when they were running. That held true the entire season and in the playoffs.
Darko should change his name to Merlin. The guy is an absolute magician, and has shown that he can turn lead into gold.
LOL. Yeah, I wish I could be on here more often. My job as a professor (and as a husband) takes up tons of time. I had more time as a graduate student.
