    Do these guys even watch the game?

    Honestly - there are people on this board who deserve to be in their position and earn their paychecks as they watch the game and see what's actually happening.

    Yes. It's Dwight's fault guys he's got one shot.
    Let's ignore the nice passes out of the double team.
    Let's ignore the fact he isn't trying to force his offense in the paint against superior numbers (what people on this board have criticized him for previously)
    Let's ignore the fact the team simply goes away from the post on occasions.

    Common sense.
    I hope they eventually use it.

    True..that TO was on howard. You should always expect the ball when playing with dynamic guards. I now see why he could not even coexist with steve nash last year. I mean STEVE NASH! Dwight is useless.

    But you have to do something with Howard to win against elite teams

    Two bad coaches going at it tonight. It's got to feel good knowing you won't be outcoached.

    I would play the vets on the bench unit more in the 4th--Garcia, Brewer, TJones.

    Howard can't handle defending the perimeter.

    McHale is that really hard to say?Tell Parsons to stay with freaking Melo their best player instead of helping others

    You do realize that there were no superstar power forwards on the market but we could probably flip Howard for Aldridge right now, don't you?

    Also, am I crazy, or would Bargnani be a pretty good fit with this team?

    DH needs to post deeper. Just turn and shoot. Don't dribble.

    I think Howard will have a good 2nd half.

    Dwights biggest problem is he is in denial. He wants to be one of the great low post back to basket scorers but in reality he just doesn't have it. He will never be a great post player. He really should play in a way that would benefit himself and his guards which is run a p&r offense.

    Howard makes game stagnante. Once Dwight sat, did you see Harden become active and started making skip passes and attacked the basket. The same goes for Lin and Parsons.

    same thing this year --we don't defend. Plus our offense shuts down in key parts of the game

    Melo will drop 50 and the Knicks will still lose.

    You probably heard the first and last insightful thing from Shaq. This is the first time Shaq has said anything about Dwight that was spot on and wasn't dripping with bitterness. Shaq is awful at his job.

    I totally agree with Barkley and Shaqs comments about Dwight...
