?

When Melo comes back from the health/safety protocol, should he lose his spot in the rotation?

Poll closed Jan 3, 2021.

  1. Yes, he was horrible before and there are better players behind him.

    18 vote(s)
    31.6%

  2. No, but give him one last chance. If he stinks it up, into the doghouse he goes.

    3 vote(s)
    5.3%

  3. No, give him a couple more chances, and if he doesn't play well, then give away his minutes or spot.

    6 vote(s)
    10.5%

  4. No, but keep him on a short leash each game. Pull him if he's not playing well.

    28 vote(s)
    49.1%

  5. No, a player should not lose his spot because of an injury. He deserves his place in the rotation.

  6. No, Melo re-signed w/ the Blazers on a min contract. He's a future Hall-of-Famer & deserves respect

    I was thinking about that but I doubt that will fly. Maybe though, they do cling to their excuses.

    We've played one good game....odly enough, against the defending champs.
    Otherwise it's been 2 complete blowouts and an OT struggle to beat 2 NBA players and 7 scrubs.

    Was hoping for a little more consistent quality

    They haven't solve 3 point line last year and it seems this year won't be any different. I just can't the coach altogether and think the players have to take some of the blame because there not adjusting neither and yes the coach is not making no adjustment either.

    Why the f*** is CJE playing over Ant??? This makes no sense at all. Stotts is really stupid. That’s it.

    GREAT pass from Giles to Blevins. Don't think he was expecting that.

    Elleby is missing badly on WIDE OPEN '3's. Should be closer than that if he is a good shooter.

    Saying this for years
    We're talking CJE out there over Ant, but we also have Jones and Blevins out there over Ant ... a starter and a guy who shouldn't be on the roster who plays the same position as Ant.
