    Carmelo first off the bench once again. Stotts is really going to ride with Melo til the end.

    There had to have been some form of agreement between Melo and Olshey/Stotts that he would be the 6th man if he came back.

    Melo is like playing zone defense while the rest of the team is in man.

    They were all supposed to be in zone on the baseline out of bounds.

    Good pass by CJ, drew the defender even deeper before making it.

    Not talking about one play. Talking about his defense in general. Both this season and last.

    GTJ promptly gets burned and hands the ball over in back to back possessions.

    If this was any other team we would be down 10. Even Ricky Rubio can break down our defense on a simple drive.

    no energy, no movement, no passing, just guys sitting and watching the ball on both ends.
