    It's amazing that even though he knows he's going to be playing in a different system here in Houston, he hasn't adjusted his iso style of play. You almost gotta respect that about Melo...almost. I hope he understands that a Carmelo iso play in the mid post isn't a first, second, or even third option.

    @Swapshop AKA @rocketsballin (OP).

    We get it. You got a few likes by making this silly thread. Congrats.

    That said, your daily bumps to keep it on the first page are coming off as really desperate and frankly a little sad.

    Damn let the man have his thread. I'm enjoying it, why are you gonna try and bully these new members. If you want to comment on a new thread create one. Luther Head for the HOF

    Being a new member has nothing to do with it. Saw it bumped once, twice ok no biggie but it's become a daily thing and for some reason that annoys me.

    I suppose it is summer though and the thread is harmless.

    But it’s an option that will be explored. When you get a player, you gotta take the game that comes with it. Yes, he will be asked to be at the three point line more, but just as with Joe Johnson.. we tried to get him in the post. Chris Paul still gets his mid range shots. Melo will get his, but you don’t want to regulate him to strictly being a spot up shooter, even though he will be asked to do a lot more than he’s used to.

    In the playoffs, a Carmelo isolation is certainly a second-third option, especially when James/CP3 are getting rest, or we get Steph switched onto Melo.

    Start at 9 secs. Is that Rockets legend Von Wafer talking trash while getting cooked by Melo? Am I the only one who caught this? Lol

    You deduced this from a 10 second clip from a pick up game where it only shows him posting up once?


    Lmao

    And what's weird, is that our style of play IS ISO.

    So insecure.

    So easily triggered.

    And not even that good of a bballer.

    At least Durant has the last part going for him.

    This thread has died 8 different times and @Swapshop has bumped it back to the front page each time. Probly the most desperate thing I have ever seen on Clutchfans.

    Carry on.
