D’Antoni make up your kind. Either try to win and take Melo out of the game or give up and let the rest of the starters rest. You can’t do both.

I can't believe Kyrie is the only starter with any points with 4 minutes left in the 2nd quarter.

Four minutes left in the first half and Kyrie is the only starter who has scored?

Baynes only 8 minutes of play but 2nd in shot attempts for Boston so far this half. That shouldn't happen.

Celtics might have a bottom 5 offense.

That's pretty funny.

I'm still one of the last believers in TJ Warren, but the guy did work with a shooting coach and shot an estimated 42,000 shots this summer, and he has developed that 3 in addition to his smooth mid range and inside game. Pure scorer. Still needs to improve on D but getting better. Big piece for Suns right now, particularly since Josh Jackson has been such a disappointment.

Any chance Phoenix ever trade TJ Warren to the Pels?

This has to be nearing some kind of record.

Too familiar indeed.

Though I don't recall them making roster changes then as they did this season.

They traded a first round pick for Ty Lawson, then waived him late in the season.


Should do the same with Melo.

I think CP3 and Harden have realized by now(or I hope they have) that he's completely washed.

Tatum NBA card investors are looking dumber by the day.

According to your logic, Tim Duncan doesn't deserve any respect.

It's Kyrie's fault and he's the expendable one though...

CP3 hasn't been very good this season.

It's looking like the shine is wearing off on Stevens golden exterior.

See how CP3 dribbles forever then kicks it out at the last second? But he made a highlight w/ his handling skills... :roll:

I like Diallo for OKC. He seems good.

Rockets offense sucks....as usual. Your two guards pound the ball for 18 seconds, kick out or jack up a shot. What’s D’Antoni’s input exactly?
