Melo had a very nice overall game tonight, his shot wasn't falling as well as I would like, but he did everything else. Afflalo is also playing very well.

Goddamn I am LOVIN Afflalo this season. He's averaging like over 20 on really good percentages I think.

I have to agree with you, Arron has improved his offensive game over the summer. He is taking it to the rack with some authority now and he looks to be a step or two quicker this year.

Blake looked mighty impressive for the Clippers last night. It would be nice if he can stay healthy for the Clippers this year.

It was a fun game to watch, but is anybody else having a hard time getting into the team this year? With Billups having the buyout clause, Nene having a player option, Melo wanting to leave, and JR, KMart, and Afflalo all being on expiring contracts we could be losing our top 6 players in 9 months and then it is another rebuild.

How can Afflalo not be anyone's favorite player? Whenever I have kids...he's who I want them to be watching.

Agreed. Afflalo has the desire to be here.

Rebel has a hurtful but true points on our roster.

As soon as Melo saga concluded, team needs to get on with the rest of the players. I am sure the team needs to know the outcome on Melo to progress further.

Afflalo is born with the WILL!

GK will probably be back, I read where the team wants to retain him long term.
