Major respect for the Celts fighting back but they had no chance with the Knicks 3-pointers going in like layups.
Celtics need Ray Allen and Pietrus back. All they need is one more game to clinch Atlantic so this loss is really nothing.
The Lakers have 4, count 'em 4, very high quality post up options, including possibly 3 of the top 10 post up players in the entire league.
Yeah that was the point. Let melo be melo and work around it. Small forward is a difficult position to get shots from for a guy like melo who is more of a post up guy than a danny granger who can roam and pull up. Melo's game is more of back to the basket, so I am not surprised that it is working, frankly. The knicks need to find a home for amare. I would trade Amare for Ed Davis and Demar DeRozan. That would provide bench help and a quality shooting guard. Another move might be: James Harden for Amare, straight up. That would be a sick move for both teams.
