I wonder how long this Pro-Melo/Anti-Melo nonsense is gonna last.

His agent said Brewer wanted to go elsewhere if he wasn't getting a huge amount of playing time. I think his agent was the same as Amare?

To be honest, we have gotten lucky as hell in terms of our shooting and the Nuggets are making unforced errors, but at this point I'll take it.

There was not one single iOS play with Melo on the bench.

Yea, Melo comes in, iso with two people on him so he holds the ball and shoots on 2 defenders.

the ball movement was nice, but you still got melo calling iso plays for himself. it's nice to see his teammates ignoring him though once in a while. they gotta do that more often. keep the ball moving

Melo is gonna have to adjust his game

You can see anthony was looking at Fields to try to pass him the ball, but he was covered.

No there wasn't. It was a bunch of iso play, then either guys settling or kicking it out to someone out of rhythm.

Yes it was. There were stretches were Melo was out of the game and the ball was being move but shots weren't falling. Even the game were Melo was injured and didn't play we had decent ball movement, but shots were not falling like they are tonight.

The ball movement with Melo in the game is often that senseless passing, if there is any passing. Never really looking for that shot. Sort of like "Melo is in the game, lets try to move the ball."

because although we gave amare 100 million, we still owed his manager a favor.

And yes, Melo did take a bad shot.

So you mean Mike wasn't calling all these Melo iso plays?

We have created our own luck with ball movement.
