    I think because he’s gotten his shot blocked so much at the rim he’s rightly gun shy.

    It's sad when teams feel they can double team 53% TS 35 year old Carmelo Anthony because everyone else on the floor is such a nonfactor.

    GS loves clowning us at full strength.......and short handed. They are our absolute daddy no matter the situation. It's delightful.

    Terry needs to say fuck the philosophy and switch everything. There's no one on that GS team that can take advantage of 1v1s.

    Big picture, Bones. What's your stance again? Are you a anti stotts guy, anti olshey guy, what's your core belief in what's wrong? In 5 words or less ha.

    An't has made a couple positives plays...

    Nice cut a few plays ago and did a good job not to follow Lee to the corner and be there to break up a lob in the 1Q.

    Rough otherwise.

    Does Terry have literally NO idea what to do besides run post ups on every possession for Carmelo? Like he's being PAID to COACH.

    phoning it in this season.

    Look at what Kerr is doing with that shit roster. Compare that to our idiot on the bench

    Still surprises me how much I've enjoyed Trent Jr. this year.

    Props to him.

    I don't understand why we don't try to run more with a lineup like this. I want to hear Terry yelling "push!" but I haven't.

    just when you thought it couldn't get worse

    by the way, I think the Moses experiment should end

    they're clearly tanking.

    we are playing to win.

    look at how well they're playing team ball

    I will never understand why we don't switch on screens where the defenders are Melo, Little, Hezonja, Hoard, and Trent... They're all very similarly-sized defensively and GS eats us up with screens. They'd be far less effective if we switched them... I just don't understand that.

    If Kerr is trying to tank tonight, he's doing some bad coaching!
