    All that expensive "talent" and they are 2-4 and currently getting abused by the winless Wizz. Will D'Antoni be joining Westphal in the unemployment line soon?

    D'Antoni has never been known for defense (neither have Stoudemire/Anthony/), and he has Toney Douglas instead of Steve Nash running the offense. Plus, Tyson Chandler isn't rebounding. A trainwreck of a team. They could really use Raymond Felton right now. Glad they don't have him. :)

    Patty Mills would do great things on that team.

    I always thought the combination of Carmelo and Amare to be weak.

    Both forwards.

    Both high volume shooters.

    Neither is a pure post player.

    Both not great at other parts of the game.

    How is it that they compliment each other?

    Both Amare and Melo aren't team players, they're me players.

    Neither play defense worth shit too.

    They're really quite talent-less aside from their starting 3/4/5 and, as already mentioned, they're best players don't make their teammates better and don't play defense.
