Is there an argument to be made that if they take the Sabremetrics approach, this could be their year?
And what about Lue? I know absolutely nothing about that guy.

Herro hurt before I had a chance to put up a graphic comparing his stats to Dame's. By the time he comes back I'm sure balance will have been restored to the universe, but we'll always have those totally representative first two weeks of the season.
