What pressure is building? Melo should know damn well that we would be the last team that Ainge would send Rondo to. I also see Rondo being sent to his buddy in Houston McCale. The only reason why he sent Garnett and Pierce to Brooklyn is to do everything and anything to hurt the Knicks. So we shall see. You can only play 5 players at a time on the court.

Unless Melo has an epiphany of sorts and plays off the ball. I would take the chance but not at the expense of shumpert

We need to become a team that moves away from the ISO garbage play. We have too many players that have to have guys give them the ball and clear out. If Melo played with Billups and got to the WCF(many feel this was his best all-around season as he learned to play more without the ball and on the other side of the ball) then he surely can play with Rondo and not falter.

I'm glad you're not in our front office influencing decisions that's for sure.

Melo doesn't "DO" ball movement! I'd he did, MDA would probably still be here, along with Lin. Can't win the Scoring Title with ball movement. What's the matter with you?

First off, having MDA still here wouldnt exactly be a good thing.
Second - are you saying Lebron and Durant dont move the ball? They both won scoring titles.

Please don't put Melo in the same sentence as LeBron, or Durant. Those guys are way better all around players, and are coach able! Not saying MDA being here would've been a good thing, but when he was trying to teach ball movement to Melo, Melo didn't want to have anything to do with it and felt HIS way is the best way! UNCOACHABLE!!! Melo wins scoring titles with the expense of TEAM ball. Those other 2 guys don't do that, especially LeBron. You have to respect his passing game too.

MDA nowadays gets hire by owners that don't get him the players that fit his system. LA hires MDA then picks up Howard? Huh??? And then everyone is "SHOCKED" it didn't work out! LOL!

So you shouldn't get a top 5 player because your coach can't make it work with that much talent. That is a problem with the coach.

Square peg in a round hole philosophy doesn't work. Either change the peg or change the hole and stop trying to force it cause the peg is so AWSOME!
