Those double teams from Virginia are giving Ok4 fits

They don't get any easier at the NBA level

Yep, might wanna invest in other aspect of the game. Like getting a jumper and being a presence on defense.

He had 1 stifling palmed block in the first half

But besides that from the 5gms I've seen him play


Dare I say he's been dreadful defensively, it is an issue

To be somewhat fair to him this game offensively his guards haven't done the best


Getting him the ball when he's had position, but that's how the game goes sometimes

And as you said, great players always adjust or have a counter[s] to beat you

Big time shots down the stretch from Duke[guards]

Where double teaming Ok4 paid off in their favor from deep

Towns.....Russell....OK4

I think all of them will be solid. ...The tough question is who's the roll players and whos the superstar at the nba level?

Towns looks like the only complete player that will impact the game on both ends.

No player faces double and triple teaming like Ok4. NO ONE doubles and triples post players in the NBA anymore. Ok4 will be a tough match up at the 4 weighing 270 pounds yet being nimble and skilled as he is. Now if a team happened to grab him AND like Atlanta had another skill 4-5 like Millsap/Horford--exactly who takes who there? That would give Melo and the Knicks guards a field day and wed score 110 points every game.

Okay so whenever like a Briggs or someone else says/////


"Stop always complaining about Carmelo because teams game plan for him and he faces constant double teams"


They are lying and peddling myths?


So no teams double Blake-Jefferson-Dwight-Duncan-Dirk-Cousins-Aldridge-Zach-Davis ever?


I'm beginning to think College Basketball is interrupting all of your availability

To watch the televised game referred to as the NBA

Hes a smart player from what I have seen second half, his help defense is still non existant but he finally figured out the correct timing for passing out of double teams which helped second half.In the NBA, it will be easier because you don't really see post players getting double teamed that much. In the summer he should really work on adding a jumper it will benefit him.
The Future is Bright!
