coach woodson is another believer:

Ian Begley ‏@IanBegley 26s

#Knicks coach Mike Woodson says on @ESPNNY98_7FM, "I think I'm forced to go back to small ball" with Tyson Chandler out.

Ian Begley ‏@IanBegley 1m

Woodson says on @ESPNNY98_7FM "it's been proven since I've been here that the small lineup works." Wonders how it will work vs. big teams

9. Similarly, IF THOU HAST SPENT the entire offseason predicting that thy team will stink, thou shalt not gloat, nor even be happy, shouldst thou turn out to be correct. Realistic analysis is fine, but be a fan first, a smug smarty-pants second.

The reason why small lineups have worked in the NBA isn't because smallball is so much superior to size...it's just that this league has way too many untalented stiffs lumbering up and down the court which gives the perception that big doesn't work.

The problem is that in Toronto, big is actually a strength.
