Yeah, but what counts is he got to start.

Thank you. I wanted to show some humility and not come right out and say that, but you're so right. Why hide the truth of what is about to transpire? Travis Wear will make people say Michael Jordon Who? in the very near future.

today was a clear sign of playing team ball but not knowing each other. the offense sputtered. today was also an example of not really knowing your personnel after the first half. i mean taj gibson with 22 points in limited mins...? when did he ever do that...? meanwhile no double teams to allow dunleavy to shoot it who was terrible from the floor by the way.

i hate to say it, but this one is as much on the head coach as it was on the players.

Nixluva is posting triangle screen grabs, even when nobody asks - Fishmike. LOL So are we going to reference that thread like the bible now? "The thread of Wroten Page 14 post 9" - EnySpree

After Melo, Fish really is the only big remaining variable this season (as I don't see some magical savior arising from our current roster). He's a rookie coach, so it isn't fair to expect miracles from him.

I think Amare goes to the bench when Calderon returns. Need Amare's steady offense off the bench. Clerly not getting anything consistent from the guards

Amare should start as long as he's playing well. With both smiths, hardaway and eventually bargnani, bench scoring shouldn't be a problem. With shumpert and Dalembert limited offensively, amare needs to be the second scorer in the lineup.

Melo should come off the bench. Amare is a starter.

LOL

That would be classic $124mil coming off the bench

Would be nothing new. We've seen Houstonm Mcdyess, Marbury, Penny, Francis & Amare all come off the bench at $100mil+

He doesn't as long as he hits the midrange shot the way he did tonight. And moves without the ball.

Amare scores very easily. Nothing gets in his way offensively

Melo has to work HARD for every shot. He is not athletic enough. He needs 20 seconds and a lot of space to operate

So glad we gave Melo $124mil with a no trade claus to boot in order to try to change a 30yr old, 12yr vet

True, movement without the basketball just not his strong point. Amare on the other hand like to be spoon fed and finishes strong.

The fact Fisher caved to Amar'e veiled bichin speaks volumes

Even Woodson had balls not to start guys just because they wanted to
