![]() Just watched most of the second half this morning. Wow. Billups is a definite leader here. Agree with everyone saying he reminds a little of Derek Harper. His passing in traffic is much better than Felton's - I think he'll eventually develop chemistry with Amar'e on the pick and roll. Which, let's be honest, was essentially a lost weapon with Felton running it. It almost never happened.
Melo shoots a lot. I don't think he's going to pass any more than he did last night. I hope he can, because the ball movement between he and Amar'e could be amazing. And Fields and Shawne Williams should be getting tons of open looks. Toney, too. And I said this when we were talking about Melo's strengths - he is a great rebounder on both ends for his size. He might wind up being our leading rebounder here. My bet is that both he and STAT will be over 8 per game the rest of the way. With Billups and Fields being excellent rebounders from the guard positions, we may actually be okay on the boards from here on out. Not a dominant rebounding team - and teams with huge bigs like Boston or Orlando might give us trouble. But against the Miami's, Atlanta's and Chicago's of the world, I think we can win the rebounding battles. ¿ △ ?

![]() Agree on Shawne Williams D. He was really impressive last night. He was even keeping Bogut off the block. Guy was playing center last night! We don't want that long term, but he did a good job.
