Blazers win with mismatches

Using Rasheed Wallace at small forward and Bonzi Wells
at shooting guard gives them the edge in their exhibition opener

It was early in the first quarter Tuesday when Maurice Cheeks
reveled in his latest experiment as coach of the Trail Blazers.
Cheeks started Rasheed Wallace at small forward in the Blazers'
exhibition opener, and the potential for exploitation was
immediately evident. Usually a power forward who is matched
against players at or around his 6-foot-11 height, Wallace was
guarded early by Houston small forward Jim Jackson, who at 6-6
had no way of stopping Wallace's shots.
So after Wallace posted up Jackson on the Blazers' sixth possession
of the game, which resulted in a virtually uncontested basket,
Cheeks couldn't hide his enthusiasm.
"How easy was that?" Cheeks said to himself on the sideline.
It was easy enough that Wallace finished with a game-high 19
points in 24 minutes, which helped the Blazers cruise past the
Yao Ming-less Rockets 104-80 in front of 12,451 at the Rose Garden.
Cheeks also tried another variance, starting Bonzi Wells at
shooting guard, which again produced an offensive mismatch that
allowed the bulky, 6-5 Wells to shoot over spindly 6-4 Cuttino Mobley.
