He, and some of the others on the team, seem to have finally understood the offense Hornacek wants them to play, and he is much better than Kuz and Beas moving without the ball.

I think he is only going to get better as the season progresses...

I really Like McDermott. He’s the right kind of player for this style. He’s picked up his effort level and shows he has good BBIQ. Of course his jumper wet as hell. They need to work on more ways of getting him the ball.

that will work when kp figures out how to make quick reads out of the double, or when ever frank starts to get more than 15 minutes.

derms is really good shooter, and I agree about the korver comparison.

Beasley only looks high because he talked about weed in a positive light......

News flash.....85% of NBA players smoke! Most states are trying to make it legal, so no grounds of hate there.

Beasley to me is a poor mans Melo....And he's playing exactly where Melo should've played......Off The Bench!

I have no problems with our new players or old players. I think everybody can contribute in their own way, including Noah.

The problem to me, is the same problem as before....

1 ....building around Melo, but that problem no longer exist.
2 ....having the right coaching staff / coach not affraid to go against the norm or make tough decisions. I think Hornacek has met and so far exceeding that goal very early. If the ship starts to sink now, then that means someone is not getting playing time or upset about something and starts to spread locker room cancer. This is why I love the backups we have. All of them have something to prove. None of them are trying to be something they are not. Beas used to be that guy, but he's older now and happy to have a job, especially under these bright lights of NYC.

cut.....

Noah.....
