Melo holds the ball and then getting him the ball can be a challenge

Just kills the flow of the offense

Melo is good for the tank so that's the positive

Well he is confused about the direction the franchise is going. He needs to take his time to shoot, you don't want him shooting in the wring direction do you?

Game really changed momentum late 3rd when this teams offense went to hell
Here they are 65 games into a season and they still force feed the ball and stall the offense
Just swing the ball to the other side and get something going there

Anyway good for the tank but as a fan of the game for 3 decades I truly despise selfish stupid basketball on offense. Not a single great team plays that way.

Derrick Rose has talked about the importance of playing efficiently and he's doing it tonight. He has 14 points on 7-for-9 shooting and four assists tonight. I don't know if it will be the Knicks, but some team is going to pay him this summer.

Ya know there might be something to this notion of playing Melo for the Tank!

I think Horny is really trying to tank with that lineup in the 4th. KP, Melo and Willy front line is one of the worst defensively in the league. To anyone who thinks KP is ready to take the next step, just take a look at his D on Giannis--non-existent. Keep the tank alive!

Rose has been a man among boys. He has value as the off-guard - but not max contract value.

They're setting a screen on KP for those Giannis switches. Giannis isn't just going Man 2 Man with KP. Get REAL!

BTW, Melo's body language in this game is one of a loser. He's playing so lazy out there.

I mean the team had a 10 point lead playing a certain way
All of a sudden they stall and can't seem to move the ball
I don't wanna pick on Melo but it's almost always him there when the offense and ball movement stalls

Maybe Hornachek is just not the coach for him

Anyway Milwaukee is going to win this one but that way we handed the game and momentum in the 3rd really sums up our issues and season. Even when we play well we don't continue to do what's working and revert to Melo ball.

Good game for the tank.

KP trying to defend the Greek freak is a complete joke! These two players are on different stratospheres in terms of stardom.

You're an ASS! They're setting screens to get Giannis open and KP is not some guard or forward small enough to just guard someone like him on the perimeter like that. HE'S F'n 7-3.

What annoys me is KP getting picked off so easily by a small guard. Delanova.

the bucks are running the same 1/4 pick play and Rambis has not made an adjustment.

He's NOT a guard. The only way KP is gonna be able to deal with a screen coming from behind him is to bowl him over.

He finally switched LT onto Giannis.

Screens or no screens--his defense sucks! I've been consistently saying that for a while. Gotta be objective! Giannis is 22; KP is 21. They are light years apart in development. Truth!
