agreed the ball movement tonight is better than it's been in recent games... Turiaf allows for much better spacing on the floor than Fishlips because he's actually a threat to put the ball in the basket if he gets it in the paint... guys don't respect Jeffries ability to score at all not even if he's standing underneath the basket with his arms in the air do guys get on him unless he gets the ball then it's 1 head fake & get his shot blocked or miss the layup guaranteed.

Billups is hitting his shots too that helps with ball movement guys can't just double down on Melo or Stat in the paint... when Chauncey's making his shots too this team is almost impossible to defend.

close game right now, this one can go either way but i like the effort level & body language from everyone in this game... much better team style basketball.

That's what i've been saying. They just don't think or focus on D. It's a lazy mentality that they've developed over years of playing that way. You don't just turn a switch and all of a sudden become a great defender. You have to put in the work everyday in practice and look for ways to improve. They just don't give effort and don't think defense enough.
