Much better effort this game. Way to go.
Heartening. I think they'll get up to play tomorrow.

how about Tyson's rebounding? Defense?
There's a whole thread on that.
To answer your question, though, he seems either injured or bored. He's basically a highly efficient scorer who isn't contributing much else.
fair enough.
I think that it is mileage
He seems still to be strong and quick on offense but then tired on the defensive end. He looks like he needs a 2 month rest.

Already?
Put Walace in there - far greater threat on both ends.
9-3 looks good
Props to Sheed, Novak and JR Smith.
Felton with zero turnovers. 10 assists. Double double
Our offense is still very reliant on the 3 and has very little ball movement. Melo having 6 turnovers is inexcusable and is primarily because he is forcing the action and the ball is not moving. Defensively we haven't looked good in a while. I take nothing from this game other than we were supposed to win and we did. Let's see what happens tomorrow.

How about Amare at the 5? Give him the chance to block shots and allows Melo to stay at the 4.
we are suppose to blow the pistons out which we did. Now lets get after it tomorrow and start a nice long winning streak into the next heat game

Melo wasn't good?
29 points in 31 minutes on over 50% shooting, 4/5 on 3s says otherwise.
Granted he did turn the ball over 6 times (1 was a weird offensive foul though) and rebounds weren't exactly falling for him, so it's not like he was magnificent, but he had a good game and again people refuse to acknowledge it.
The hate is strong within some people. (not singling you out here).
Is this Nazi Germany? Can't make valid criticisms about a team?

Who's Amare?
Our defense and rebounding will be even worse!
And ... who says the guy is even coming back?
I will hold off on Amare talk until he comes back. If he comes back and IF he is healthy and IF he is hitting his jumper and IF he can stay healthy then maybe ...

Um, the guy is coming back. And we could use him. In fact, if we want to do any damage in the long run, we're going to need him.

Maybe he will. And, if he does, you don't know if it will the good Amare.
I don't wanna hear Tyson is tired from the olympics. If thats the case than Kobe, Lebron, durant are shot because they actually played heavy minutes. Tyson barely played

Exactly!
He was worthless for the most part to that team and its style (ahem MDA)
