    injuries.
    capella got paid and loafing it
    cp3 showing his age
    rule changes

    are contributing to this way more than melo. the defense hasnt even been that bad considering. but the team cant score. no one is playing well. NO ONE.

    Did I say that Melo was a loser, the CP3 contract is a killer for the team?

    Meh, Melo made some good plays tonight, offensively and defensively. Should be a 20 minute per game player, getting the ball in the post off a switch.

    Meanwhile, we get net negatives from Gerald Green and MCW, neither of whom should have been signed, and Hartenstein, a (terrible) rookie.

    More Clark more Chriss. I at least want some athletes who play hard and at least do certain things well.

    He talks **** saying that he's better than those that make more money than him making the team feel like crap. He's a dam cancer.

    source?
    I see his production is much more than what he is paid for from this team.

    Dude doesn't even post up anymore. He only has one offensive move. Fake for a jumper and then takes a jumper inside the 3pt line. Every guy guarding him knows exactly what he will do. So predictable

    being atrocious on defense. negative impact on winning basketball. but box scores though. 12 shots a game to score 14 pts. awesome!

    Gotta give you props, you are milking this bad start for all it's worth.

    Good job, OP! You win a balloon!

    It's true though... he is no risk at the minimum. That's why we can talk about cutting him without batting an eye.

    But Melo is nowhere near the biggest problem this team is facing. He has accepted his role and is kindly helping his teammates supply bricks for the city of Houston. He hasn't badmouthed teammates or the coach.

    This team needs a big man in the worst way. Even Clyde could see it. There has to be some deterrent at the rim.

    Our offense is broken, but we are missing 3 rotation pieces in Harden, Ennis, and Nene (or rather, someone that should be in Nene's PF/C spot.) The offense will come around with Harden's health. The REBOUNDING and rim protection needs emergency attention.
