Where was all this hatred when they were winning and he was playing a big part of it?


Over the last 10 games, Melo has had two games total with >= 55 TS%. He's been underwhelming offensively for quite some time now.


What was the number? I’m not surprised. He’s had some stinkers since CLE and is only shooting 30% from 3.

Do you get your #’s from BRef? It only gives me regular numbers when I highlight a timeframe on the game log.

Back to the original point - I never hear how worthless he is after a good or even when the team wins. It wasn’t like he said Melo has been underwhelming. It was over the top. Then I get called a Stan or have blind love when I say it’s extreme. When he has a good game am I saying some insane stuff like Melo should be the #1 option? I even agreed with you on your thread about playing Patterson more with the starters.

I’ll call him out when we win if it makes you happy.

The NBA’s Last Two Minute Report," said Denver's Nikola Jokic did not commit an inbound violation ahead of the play that led to Harris' winner. The league deemed that Jokic shuffled his feet but did not leave the designated throw-in spot. The report also said he held the ball for 5.1 seconds, which was not deemed an incorrect call.

In addition, the league said officials were correct in not calling a foul on Denver's Wilson Chandler, who ran into OKC's Jerami Grant.u


I don’t really care because we made mistakes and even if they admit they were wrong, it’s meaningless. That being said, this makes no sense to me.
