    Hard to make a run when they make every shot and we miss everything

    Melo in for 6 seconds....jacks a '3'.
    2nd trip, offensive foul on a moving pick.

    I despise our “offense”.

    I like that GT worked on his game and added the aspect of missing of the dribble

    Melo is so predictable. Selfish player.

    He knows he's on the floor with Melo. If it doesn't shoot it when he gets it, he won't see it again.

    Melo with the 0-pass possession. Even though he made the shot, bigger picture, that is not a good thing.

    I would rather give up a layup than a wide open three.

    Man, we're missing a lot of open 3's.

    I really hope this isn't a common theme during the season. This kind of play (and game 2 vs the Kings) kind of shows they're in a lower tier than the Nuggets (let alone the Lakers, Clippers, Celtics, Bucks, Heat)...

    Melo is going to isolate every single possession. This shit is absolutely ridiculous.

    There is so much raw talent on the bench unit but all that is going to be moot if Melo shoots every single possession.

    It’s so fucking predictable. Dude drives, moron guard leaves his man in the corner, wide open three pointer.

    I see the Blazers 3 point defense is in mid season form!
