Stat has been great off the bench. IF JR can get his head together our bench will be tough
Amare knocking down a jumper is always a good sign

Lol no he doesn't
yes, he does. just not lately
He's been in a shooting slump as of late, I think he should try to be more agressive by going to the rim, then when he hits a couple his jumpers start falling too.
Melo is a career 33% shooter from downtown. Hie best year was under MDA at above 40%
I thought he had turned a corner at the beginning of the season when he was on fire from downtown.
Was it real improvement or just a blip?

Yep. The guy was making 43-44% of his shots from three for the first two months of the season. He was hitting those shots. Agree that he needs to play inside-out at this point, to get himself going.
Why was Felton guarding Josh Smith in the post?
ohhh Melo
Ever heard of passing out of the triple team?
melo and jr are killing us right now
Amare has got to stop doing that. He did it to Bogut and killed his season.

I have no problem with Melo taking it to the rack.

The thing is he usually took those shots when he had already made a few. Taking a heat check shot when you're cold is a bad idea.

well, in his defense he was open.
but yeah, that's why I said he should try to get to the rim more often

the old melo has returned way too much iso. Lebron draws defenders to him and then finds guys wide open. Why cant melo do that

Exactly. And there's a big diff between transition 3s and 3s in the half court offense off of ball movement. I guarantee he is less than 33 from transition.
