His form on that shot is a high elevation jump with a flick of the wrist - it's not a normal jump shot. Some people have theorised that when he...
Adams was the screener for Ja. So they put Melo in the action and asked him to trap hard. That involved Ja beating him but giving Ja’s man time to...
I find it strange that he played 33mins while Lebron played 40m. Also I find it odd that he wasn’t guarding Adams in the fourth but they had Melo...
My main complaint from yesterday: we gave up 18 offensive rebounds which resulted in the Grizzlies having 16 more possessions than us. They had...
Well it’s a good thing then
I don’t mind Westbrook shooting that pull-up 2. If we’re going to win the championship, he needs to be able to hit that. It keeps defenders from...
Totally agree. A lot of Russ’ defensive lapses have been when he has pushed up close on a Melo trap. Clearly we’re asking them to do that, but...
It’s a shame we never got to see Prime Melo and Lebron play together. Lebron setting Melo up is just fun to watch.
Never seen anything like this, an undrafted rookie playing 4th quarter mins in a close game on a vet heavy team. To me he plays like a smaller...
I’m liked the Westbrook, Reaves, Lebron, Melo and AD/Dwight rotation. Lebron, Melo and Reaves have been shooting lights out and Lebron, Reaves and...
Our scheme doesn’t rely on perfect man defence. It just asks for effort, control and help. So Bazemore, Reaves and Bradley have all been good...
I hope Melo sticks around and hits the 30k with us. Would be nice to do it at the end of his 20th season trying to repeat. Would be a great way to...
The good news is, there aren't a lot of those massive 3's we have to really worry about. PG and Butler this year? When Ariza gets back we have a...
Replying to LT's comment from the WMC thread on Reaves rotating well and being intelligent in defence. He rotates well and plays good on ball...
Wrote something way too positive for this thread, check out Reaves thread instead.
Bazemore, Bradley and Reaves have been good on ball. Westbrook and Lebron have gotten some timely stops playing the free role. AD & the bigs are...
Absolutely, Ellington, Nunn and Ariza are 3 shooters we are missing with Nunn and Ariza providing 3&D. Also THT is out and he can be a different...
Yes I’ve noticed the same thing so far. Monk and Melo together don’t seem to gel. I’m sure they’ll continue to test it, so we’ll see if that...
Both of their first 2 shots were early shot clock mid range fade aways. I feel like it’s the kind of shot you take to see if you’re hot on the...
I honestly wouldn’t mind throwing Reaves in early as well, he contested hard without fouling on CP3 and Booker. Just have a big waiting in the...
