Are contusions contagious b/c everyone shot horribly tonight.
As a team we shot 35%. The way we were shooting tonight as a team, spread those 24 shots across the other guys, I doubt we would have fared much better. Actually both teams except for Anderson were horrible...I almost fell asleep during the game it was that slow lol
Also, Novak was hitting his shots tonight so idk why Woodson didn't give him more minutes. Defensive liability he is but when he's on he's worth the risk.

Get well soon Melo.

I know, I wasn't calling you out or anything. I wasn't defending him either...I was just sharing my general thoughts on the matter. I suppose he was just trying to play through the pain...or numbness or whatever it feels like. At least he has a week off to heal.

woodson can't figure out what to do with this team people complain.

Melo sits people complain.

Melo sits and he's quitting on his coach.

Somebody please revive the "Melo sits out with a groin pull and yet he doesn't really have a groin" threads.

Defense gets shotty here and there. Melo is actually having a good year. I still would like to see him shoot 50% from the floor but that is wishful think. His game needs a lot of improvement he needs to make quicker decisions when he does have the ball because once it hits his hand everything stops all the movement with it. That ball should not stick in his hand for more than 3 seconds, decisions have to be quick.

I agree we're not going through such a bad stretch because of Melo, but mainly for things stated above, nevertheless very few of us had concerns about these issues early on and we're laughed off about it or considered belligerent thinking as a fan.

I was watching the Clips-Rockets game and EVERYONE moves without the ball, cuts to the baske etc. . I suggest people watch the way other teams play offensively. It is drastically different the way the Knicks play and it falls on Woodson to develop an offensive gameplan. Not just let the "players play"
