Let's be real: This Melo/OKC Experiment ain't Working

[e001]

I called them losing to the Grizzlies, Jazz or Blazers in the first round after like 2 games, their offense is atrocious and Billy Donovan is clueless on that end, that is not gonna change, they went up 3-1 on the Warriors solely because of defense and KD, they need to fire him.

Who actually thought this group was gonna work? Like honestly?


I have the TWolves making the WCF instead of them. 3 ball dominant wings players on one team never made sense.

the timberwolves have 2 ball dominant wings and a ball dominant big, not to mention a point guard who likes to hold the ball too much sometimes

This is like 11 games already

Remember game 1 last the warriors get manhandled by the spurs and u guys run up in here saying the warriors and KD shyt will failed

Wait till game 50

Another team gets better after Melo leaves.

At times

Unless "at times" means virtually every minute PG is on the floor with 5678 or melo...

The only time I see him look like PG are those few minutes westbrook and melo are on the bench...and as soon as one of them comes in PG might as well be Thabo Sefolosha

Explain this nickname

time to blow it up

they simply have too many iso players that don't fit. bringing melo off the bench would be a good first start to trying to get them playing well.

They had no business being in that series. Playoff George had every game close

I said yesterday in the random NBA thoughts thread when OKC was up 25-10 against Sacramento that I was completely wrong about this team. I was super high on them.

Honestly Melo needs to be the 3rd option but it's clear he's stuck in his ways.

Lots of bright minds in here

The OKC Big Three are all volume scorers that are used to taking bad shots. I believe they will start to self-correct over time, but last night was obviously a return to bad habits.

We've already seen what happens when Westbrook is looking to distribute and IMO it all starts with that. If WB attempts more than 15 FG in a game then he better be hot, because his poor shot selection almost makes him unwatchable at times.

Carmelo Anthony? Self-Correct?

Russell Westbrook needs to let it be know who his team is and PG13 be his sidekick. Send Melo to the bench and try something else, because this shyt right now looks awful.

what am i missing? is he just highlighting a melo fan?
