    We are doing so many good things in this game. Almost all negative comments concern Melo. We want to win and melo is holding us back.

    LMAO Nassir misses one three and he's taken out for Melo. LMAO Stotts' brilliance has no bounds.

    But heres the narrative that people give me a lot that I dont get: He basically has little to no chance for success when he's dropped, but we cant try anything else because it theoretically wouldnt work.

    RoCo’s nickname should be the Warden because he has the Jazz on lockdown

    Un-freaking-believable! Stotts brought Melo's brick laying, no D ass back in and took the person responsible for the energy and defense out?

    What the actual F*ck?

    Damn what the fuck happened to Melo lately? At worse he was always money with catch and shoot shots. He doesn’t even have that lately

    Nas plays great defense, has a great drive, but misses one three and he's taken out for Melo who immediately bricks a 3 and gets scored on and doesnt rotate under to take away Gobert under the rim.

    I agree that the logic you're saying you've been given by others is not strong.

    I do think Kanter is a liability in EVERY coverage option.

    Another awful end to a good quarter wastes a lead.

    I thought our defense in the 1st half (minus the Kanter minutes) was more than acceptable.

    Duplicating it in the 2nd half will be a real test.

    Carmelo Anthony should change his name to Self-Sabotage.
