    Here's something unexpected:

    Trent has 6 assists.

    not just the broadcasts. the whole team/coaching staff/front office is in on it. for what.... i don't know. WTF do we owe melo? he didn't play here in his prime, and shunned us at nearly every opportunity earlier in his career.

    I look at quality of shot not whether the shot happens to go in in that last handful of attempts. I’m not ok with some of Gary’s shots but at the same time he’s learning to do things besides just shooting threes.

    Not a huge fan of his or any of our forwards. If we were playing him over Giannis and PG13 I'd be up in arms though.

    I think that's totally reasonable. I didn't mean this to bash on Trent, just commenting that he gets a major pass for some unknown reason while others on the team are public enemy #1 after every mistake.

    That's in line with your bench Dame & Melo takes for sure.

    Our starting front line has 29 rebounds Covington 10 Kanter 10 Jones 9 that's pretty good.

    i didn't say bench dame.

    i said rest him. And not play him 40 mins at the end of a road trip when he's clearly hurt.

    there's a difference, but i wouldn't expect you to understand basic common sense.

    Melo kept them at bay here in the fourth. He’s had awful games, but he’s been good today. Also has 2 steals and a block.

    Still stand by that desire? He looks alright to me, despite your pre game and in game medical diagnosis.

    I like his 31 points.

    damian is shooting 7 for 20 and looks like he's wincing everytime he's going inside. he should not be playing when he's hurt.

    I make no bones about it. I don’t want Melo on the team. But I’ll shut up for the rest of today. It’s his night.

    That's perfectly acceptable! He'll have more bad nights than good ones, but he was good tonight so I'll tip my cap as well.
