    How disrespectful to Melo can MDA be?

    I get the ramifications of starting Melo... defensive concerns...

    I get not starting Melo just bc he wants it - and MDA doesnt wanna cave...

    but C'MON YER GONNA START FREAKING MCW?!?!?

    How can Melo not take that as a slight?

    Why not GG?

    MDA is a stubborn fool!

    and btw... as far as not playing Harden and Melo together due to defense concerns... Harden can play decent d... I heard forever that he 'couldn't be expected to play d because we expected sooo much of him on the offensive end and he was the only creator, blah blah blah...' Well we added CP3, EGo can create his own shot, GG will certainly attack and let it fly, I presume we brought Melo in for offense - not defense... whats the reason James aint playin better defense NOW? lol

    I expect Melo to be entering the game around 10:59 mark.

    I just can’t believe that...

    Please identify yourself and share your thoughts on why, if you are a fan of MCW.

    MDA is going to sugarcoat it by saying he wants to give Melo more time to get acclimated with his role off the bench, but if I'm Melo then I'm taking it as a slap in the face.

    I get that Melo hasnt played well so far, but starting MCW? Good grief...

    This is the 2015-2016 season all over again. The ghost of Corey Brewer has come back to ruin our lives. Except somehow he's even ****ing worse than Corey Brewer ever was.

    I thought this guy was insurance for when CP3 went down and that's the only thing that kept me from being completely pissed off about the signing. I didn't think he'd actually consistently play minutes, now he's ****ing starting? What the hell?

    Melo would be completely justified in being offended.

    You guys are totally freaking. What happened to the idea of bench scoring?
    Am I correct that all you who want Melo to start think he is actually good?
    Or--don't tell me--Melo sucks and MCW sucks but, unfortunately, D'Antoni also sucks, and why can't everyone just focus on your game plan?

    Good move. It would save Tilman some money if they can trick Melo into retiring instead of cutting him.
