    See that’s the thing, things will not be fine. Somethings gotta give; a change needs to be made ASAP.

    This book is out on this team...teams have gotten better and we have regressed; our stars are a year older; these new additions...to put it mildly, aren’t very good; this switching on defense doesn’t work when you don’t have players who play defense; MDA is clueless not only defensively but offensively now too, Cp3 is paid and hurt (what’s new?); James Harden is a MVP, with another sig shoe, sitting on a nice fat extension that’s still playing himself into shape, Melo is....washed up; EG believes he’s getting traded (has the Ryno bug); PJ is all heart but is old now too and can’t be a man hog to lead a team; Green is only effective on a good team, Capela is solid but again not a stud 5....this team is NOT built to win a chip let alone get out the west.

    Hope Morey (if you’re reading this) does something quick and pulls another trick out of his back soon because this team is doomed!

    Agreed. Melo is old and looks washed while the game has gotten faster....

    Melo can cross off enlisting after retirement on his checklist.

    It's unfair to pin the bad start on Melo, but the guy is just not a good player anymore but still gets the ball and the green light to shoot as if he's still has it. The reality is he hasn't been very good in years even if his numbers were still good. Anyone that's been watching him play the past few years sees his game is still that of a ball stopping iso guy that is abysmal on defense. To his credit he seems to be trying to fit in on the Rockets but that's never been his game and the reality is he's not good enough to warrant be a ball hog at this point either.

    I guess Kellerman was correct again. I salute you and our brave troops.
