He's been open at times- though not as much during the regular season.

Guys just haven't gotten him the ball.

Coach needs to make adjustments- and I don't think we have.

If they are going to pay so much attention to Novak, there's got to be a way to exploit that- like running a pick and roll with him and Melo, or something with both he and Melo and Amar'e.

Novak needs to stop going to that clear out move he does with the ball before trying to shoot. They know he isn't going anywhere. I wish he would catch the ball an put it on the floor and move in when he doesn't have the 3. Novak's done it before but he doesn't do it very often. He also needs to learn to shoot off the dribble. I'm surprised that he doesn't have that down yet. With his shooting touch, Novak could be scary.

But the issue is we only have one play who can drive and kick and that is melo. Novak in the right offense with the right players around him is a real weapon. He need to learn how to get his shot off a dribble, or even get more involved i.e. mike miller or better yet mike dunleavy. Until then Novak is a spot up shooter who is easy to defend!

Correction, we have two guys Melo and JR who can drive to the basket, unfortunately they rarely kick out. Until they learn how to play a better team game, the supporting cast will not be much of a factor. Novak is what he is, a especialist 3 point shooter, that needs to be find a the right time to be effective.
