    At least we slowed the bleeding at the end. Hopefully they got their hot shooting out of their system.

    The C in Carmelo stands for comedy.

    might be a little early to say he can't put 2 good games together. Since you know, the game is still in the 1st quarter...

    Between Dame and Melo 1-9 from the field. The 2nd gave us some life.

    You didn't expect the guy behind Covington to be better, did you?

    That last shot was SOOO Melo. Ignore Dame, ignore the hot Simons. Hold the ball and then take a 26' and hit nothing but air.

    Doesn't look like he wants to bother on offense either

    I see Anf is trying to prove me wrong since I posted that; more power to him. OK, then, why can't a guy like Melo, in the league for 15 or 20 years, show some consistency?

    That 9-2 run to end the quarter really saved us. But we still got work to do

    Good decision and aggression, Gary! Attacking quickly pays off!

    He is looking way more confident.... but they’re also playing him as more of a shooting guard without CJ around.
