    Chriss looks very winded.

    He looks like Capela his first couple of years with less hustle but more pure athletism.

    Chriss oscillates from traffic cone to Ben Wallace with each possession.

    Chriss just needs a bigger motor... he has all the tools. We don't know if Hartenstien is dumb because he is playing too hard to notice.

    Capela looks concerned on the bench. He's feeling the pressure.

    Honestly too it's that we have two of the best PGs/playmakers in the game.

    They get dudes easy shots.

    Yea, he is springy but he doesn't seem like he is in great cardio shape. His face is very round.

    It's too early to call out Chriss atm, because he hasn't had "winning team" coaching, which will teach you all the right habits and mindset for a new player. He's still very new, essentially a rookie - and we should treat him as such. I like the activity and raw athleticism he's been providing. He has great instincts in the paint on defense and can play a stretch 4 with some solid help defense on incoming drivers and switch off on mid-sized centers - but he needs to understand how to properly play the pick and roll and switch defense.

    He can learn all of these, just got to give him some time - enjoy the fact he has shown flashes rather than nothing at all.

    Why? He's not losing the starting spot. Plus he's paid already.

    How many shots does Melo have? I missed the first 6 minutes. I think I've only seen two.

    Not sure if you followed them last season, but they were the hardest playing team in the league. Effort + grit.
