Powell did some rim-rolling last night too. The interesting wrinkle I want to discuss more in the KP thread is how I saw more Rockets like spacing last night on offense which I really liked. I don't think we can take too much out of this as it could have been Rick's decision that the Pistons could not cover our spacing with their bigs (and he was right). Even Powell drew out Griffin close to the 3 point line. If it was me I would have left Powell wide open and let him shoot a couple 3's. I don't think this strategy will work all the time but I enjoyed seeing it.
Altho we have other rim-rolling capable guys, ie Maxi and KP I think the Mavs really want Powell for now to be that main guy on offense.
