    Melo might be a better defender than Bazemore right now. Baze has been horrible defensively the past few games.

    Maybe? But neither Id say are “good” defenders. Melo’s usually off in no mans land and I barely ever see him make a clean rotation.

    Sometimes that may be the case, but I'm seeing some very slow close outs and a lot of slow feet.

    As for talent, we have a 1st team All-NBA player, according to many here, a near all-star in CJ, a future HoF'er in Melo', and one of the better Centers in the league. Doesn't seem like that much of a lack of talent....at least with the starters.

    Imagine Jordan Clarkson instead of Simons coming off our bench. That would be so much more of a punch than what Simons has been doing

    Our guards having trouble getting around picks. One thing Gober sitting at 3 point line so hard recovery off the pick our guards need to pick up there higher up.

    This team looks overmatched against any decent team.

    What's funny is how much better the style of Utah's offense looks than Portland's.

    Clarkson makes two runners and now we are asking how we missed out on him?! Have any of you seen him play before?

    Not sure because Melo is going to be in the HOF means he's good and has quick feet. Maybe we should go after KG and Tim Duncan if being a future HOF matters.

    Mitchell with the blatant iso push off and no whistle. Lovely.
