    Melo is getting steady ball time now with a coach who runs plays. It's tough for any player to wait on Harden to pass you the ball. CP3 said the same thing in an interview in OKC.

    Bulls
    Thunder
    Bulls

    Melo is doing this against chump teams. I wonder how he will do against better teams now that he is warmed up. Clippers up next.

    Carmelo is shooting good especially shooting over 50% the last 2 games.

    You are better than this but I will say.

    I am not surprised at the development over there, in Oregon.

    Da fuc Rockets didn’t try to scapegoat Melo at all. Find me a single quote that even suggests that.

    Well, you have to read between the lines though.

    It wasn't all scape goating, but if you cut a veteran, that you signed late in the offseason, and who was willing to tag along for the minimum.

    It entails diminished signs of RESPECT.



    https://www.slamonline.com/nba/rockets-source-carmelo-anthony-just-cant-play-nba-defense-anymore/

    Also the Rocket quote said, he can't play NBA defense no more, then says, he could thrive with the Heat or other defensive teams......haha.
    It just meant he wasn't a good fit on a team with some other defensive liabilities.

    Chris Paul was injured, suspended and didn't play his best D as well.


    I mean even MCW played 16 games........and he was awful, even on Offense. Come on, mang.

    The Blazers have been impressive with Melo. They are a decent big and one elite defender from in being the conversation of the best in the West.

    Washed up???? Bum??? Zboy, Reeko & Yolo ALL have a lil splainin to do. Has anybody heard from them??? Getting worried

    The more Melo proves himself, the more I look at Daryl Morey's job safety. You cut this man after only 10 games, while our bench has been trash last few years. Tillman should be HIGHLY looking at resumes right now

    I guess Melo loves playing the Bulls.

    Let's see how they fare the next game, against the Clippers.

    And now somehow he apparently won player of the week???

    Despite Harden dropping 60, or Luka doing what he does. Yep, sympathy award....

    Please don't post stupid shyte. 15 years in the league is more than enough of a sample size.
