    I think Kevin Heart said it best when he was on ESPN First take. Skip asked him "Would you say you're addicted to watching first take?"

    Kevin Heart - "I'm addicted to what you'll say wrong next."

    Why does he move away from the path when someone is driving to the basket?

    Why not try to pick up a charge call?

    Or take a swipe?

    He literally does this...

    I thought Melo had a chance to be a decent piece off the bench and an upgrade over ryno .....

    Unless he starts showing something I think he might actually be done

    I’ve seen enough. It doesn’t look like there’s anything Melo has to add to this team. We should make like the Thunder and add, by subtracting Melo.

    And I’m rounding up

    On one of the 3 pointers today, they set him up for an open three and he unnecessarily took a side dribble until his man recovered, had an arm in his face, and then shot a contested 3. Miss of course.

    Imagine coaching someone like that lol....

    And people argued with me when I said it would be horrible to bring in Melo cause he sucks now.

    Yes but that’s some Joe Chee percentage
    And we don’t treat him like a 2 million dollar player

    I’m just saying he needs to shoot better cause he takes a lot of shots

    Rebounding could take a leap but his scoring off the bench has been mediocre at best so far.
