Will have to see how ATL adjust defensively. Tight pressure has bothered the knicks so let's see if they are up to the task.

id have to see melo get through it without his shoulders falling off

and i'd have to see us have playoff success against bigger more psychical playoff teams like Chicago.

but im ok with it for now

This is how its going to be fellas. Melo cooperates on offense, thus expending less energy grunting and grinding as a pounding the rock fool and he gets easy looks moving off the ball and releasing quick shots or dishing for assists. That leaves him more energy to expend on defense and he starts to actually play like he gives a crap on both ends of the floor. So I decree.

It just seems that Melo won't move or cut hard enough and in this alignment he can meander the way he likes and take the kind of post ups he prefers. He doesn't want to be Olympic Melo.

It's why we should trade for Gallo and Wilson Chandler since they space the floor, are pretty lengthy and can play either the 3 or 4 spots.

Denver wants Melo back so maybe that will work
