    Like all good things, this winning streak will inevitably end, but let's enjoy it while we can. How about a thread of saying nothing but good things about our currently red-hot team?

    I'll go first: as one of those who have bitched the most about Melo since the moment we signed him, he's being the best Melo he can be. And over the past ten games he's +66 - more than anyone on the team except the mighty Anfernee! I salute you, old-timer!

    Anfernee is finally showing signs of confidence, of which i think was the biggest factor holding him back. Consistent minutes and confidence.

    He is bringing the ball up and playing within the offense much more it seems.

    Aaaannnd his defense looks improved compared to times past.

    i live what i am seeing and will definitely enjoy it while it lasts!!!

    A 24 game win streak to add onto the 4 game streak making it a grand total of 28 would be cool.
    I would take 24 more wins this season with a few losses scattered in there if that works out better.

    Melo's clutch time stats:

    looks like the opposite of clutch to me, especially compared to Dame:

    clutch time stats for the NBA:

    notice that Dame is right near the lead in assists as well as 2nd in points

    I do know that, and I'll bet you're keen on sunshine for the garden and providing nice warm places for the cats to take a nap.

    If the Blazers can keep the win streak going and force the Lakers into the play-in, that alone would make the season a win for me.

    Yes. But also rain to relieve drought.

    This is a joke and in NO way truly how I feel, plus I have bills to pay.

    I heard that Simons was statistically our best defender during April. Not sure what stat was being used, but caught that on Chad Doing’s show on my way home today.
