Hornets PG Thread: Melo With The Game-Winner! We're Currently 6th Seed!!!

[ctorres]

Rose with the low-key shut down D

I'm sayin, he should get consideration for one of the all-defensive teams at the end of the season. That should be Rose's goal as far as individual accollades go this season.

melo is fat

Shout out to Hornachek He gets a T arguing the bad call on willies tip in. We immediately go on a 15-2 run. Changed the game entirely. He's a smart dude and doing an excellent job. Seems to really like his team.

I thought the ball was clearly over the rim on the replay no?

Also I liked Horny yelling at KP earlier in the 4th.

Seriously though bno is no where to be found lol

I never heard of a fan who is nowhere to be found when the team wins but always got something to say when they lose lol.

because he's not a fan

hes a troll
and hes cleverly found a loophole
he pretends to be a fan but spends all his time pissing on the team and hijacking threads but always just within the rules to not get banned


meanwhile the Knicks are playing excellent ball and our coach is doing a hell of a job

lolwut, i left my house after the game because it's friday night and i had a show to do.

This man is legend status only thing missing is a ring! Period.

the amount of times he hit the go ahead bucket earlier / tied the game is moot to so many folks because of how may times we blew it.

I wish I had that stat of how many times he scored to tie the game , scored for us to go ahead or iced a game that was wishing 1 shooting possesion with less than 1 min remaining.

Has to be around 20x the last 2 years excluding this year.

He has the size and athleticism to do it.

Not sure he has the instincts.

I'll settle for just playing solid D. That in itself is such a massive upgrade over what we've gone through since.... Ward? Harper?

What a game to be at live. Taught a knicks fan from London about the team and was able to have my girl catch a knicks W. May need an East Coast remix for cube lol

Subtle difference from Melo clearout endgame isos of yore - Instead of a handoff or inbound to Melo, he gets the ball on a pass from Rose. Then, Rose is in motion around him and sets up as a decoy from 3 to prevent the double from fully committing. Melo got to take his defender in single coverage. Just like Rose got his game clincher in single coverage v. Portland after a pass to and from KP with appropriate spacing from Lee behind him.

Melo 1 v. 1 is deadly. I'll take that as an end game play. Get him better shots and he will hit them. Before, it was always 1 v. 5. No movement to get him the ball or motion around him or anywhere else off the ball.

I questioned the spacing on the regulation shot. DRose went to the corner on the side Melo was supposed to shoot from. So Batum was there ready to double and Melo had to settle for that shot.

The OT shot, DRose went to the other side, truly giving Melo space.

DRose does a lot of things that make me question his IQ as a PG.

I remember a lot of his game winning attempts he got the ball way out on the 3 point line and had to put the ball on the floor and force up tough off balance shots. Hornacek gets him the ball in his office and the spacing we have right now plus Melo seeming to trust his passing ability is going to bring the clutch gene back to him.

stop putting words in my mouth.

Willy almost fk this up with his bad defense and stupid foul at the end of 4th Q.

Anyone knows why Rose picked #25 ? iirc he wore #1 when he was with the Bulls.

Is Rose really that bad or that's Just the narrative you want to keep pushing? 16&5 only took 13 shots and held walker 8 points below avg

it's my opinion, you're allowed to come up with one of your own.

Rose was huge in the 4th Q not to mention a game winning block on Kember regardless of shot going in or not that was a huge block.

His high school number and Benji Wilson, Chicago High School prodigy who was murdered. Also Wilson wore #25 at Simeon. #25 is huge at Simeon only special players wear that number.

[Oscirus]

I do think Porzingis is finally learning. ON that last Anthony shot, Porzingis didn't even try to get open :p

I get it now.... D ROSE = TIM TEBOW MYSTERY SOLVED, they both play like crap in first three and a half quarters, but then in the clutch moments they both are untouchable lol

FK, I googled about Benji and that's a tragic story, he died for no reason at all, stupid kids with gun .... fk


Anyways, mark my words, after tonight's game winner from Melo, more will come when ever the opportunity arise for him.

Melo seems to have it out for the Hornets

Of the Knicks first 15 games only 3 of them were against teams that don't currently occupy a playoff seed....and they own an 8-7 record.
