Oh I feel you in that way. Many teams are going small ball because of the defense hand-check rule, but to this point, no one has won a championship without a dominant defensive force in the frontcourt. But watching a small-ball oriented offense for all these years, there's many things wrong with it. I should tell you that I seen Ryan Gomes have career games against the Wizards because of a lack of a defensive presence. If he did that every game, he'd be an all-star.

Classic example, my team, the Wizards. I have to admit, it's quite a fun offense to watch, high-scoring games, it's exciting. Other than steals, our defense sucks ass. but with an injury to Caron, then to Gilbert, the season is over, gone to the toilet. That's what you get when your whole offense depends on 3 guys, and you lack any depth, especially with 2 centers who physically fight each other often, and one is a crybaby. My hope is that they tank, but I know they have too much pride to do that.
