    Melo didn't swing to a wide open CJ in the corner and instead dribbles it in for a contested two.

    Dame looks fine except for splitting that double team. Think his finger is hurting there

    Watching Carmelo Anthony is so freaking painful.

    Need to take better care of the ball. A couple of bad turnovers and a dumb foul by Ant there.

    We need 2 or 3 guys who can defend 6'8"-6'10" players and not be a total liability on the offensive end.

    Whitewise and Hezonja really love throwing up weak half assed balls.

    Need to play guys that won't hurt you, even if they won't help you. Simons isn't it.

    His problem trying dribble between two guys. The hand might have little bit to do with that.

    Good that we're winning, but I'd prefer to see less hero ball at this point and more just making smart, routine passes off of inside-out play or two dribbles of penetration.

    Starting to think Trent's great play in the first half of the bubble might have been worse for him in the long run, because now he thinks he's James Harden. He's forgotten what got him going in the first place and thinks he's our primary scorer.

    I don't see Gary forcing up any more shots than the rest of the team. They've gone complete iso offense, the only difference is who is initiating.

    The problem with Simons he probably didn't have to play defense in high school.

    The Lakers are a bunch of cry babies. I'm so damn tired of watching them run to the refs every time they get called for a foul. I really wish they would stfu and play the game
