    Rodney looks very lost out there. No point guard. No offensive rhythm at all. Looks like summer league.

    15 straight points by the kings, then we call a timeout? Why bother by now

    So little ball movement.....so much isolation. Expectedly poor results.
    Pass the ball, cut to the basket with those high flyers, and get the defense to rotate.

    Stotts and Neil don't think we need more than one on the team at a time.

    So they slap us on drives... no call.

    Elleby comes within a foot of the King and it's a foul?

    So after the time out:
    Iso (Melo)
    Iso (Hood)
    Iso (Melo)
    Iso (Trent)
    Iso (Melo)
    Iso (Trent)

    ...they have enough scorers out there, it's like they are all afraid if they give it up, they won't get it back. That could be a problem.

    Is Melo going to shoot every time he touches the ball?

    Melo doesn't seem interested in passing either.

    Melo needs to pass out in those situations in the post when he draws the help defender to him
