Blow it up in the offseason

I think they are doggin it. They actually came out playing d for major stretches tonight. They are the second best team in the east when they give 100% and are capable of contending but I just think they are lazy and uninspired. Melo's hot start has tapered off. JR has been in a huge slump, Kidd is not near 100% and Sheed is out for wh knows how long. Amare should not start. He should simply be a scoring option off the bench. I wish we couldve traded him for just a role player. This team can d up when they have to. They are a scoring machine on most nights even if they rely heavy on iso situations. I think they are a contender physically but mentally they dont have it in them. I expect them to play a good second round, maybe reach East finals if Melo is on his game. I think they will bring their d in the clutch. If healthy, they have a chance at reaching the finals but i dont like their odds against any western team. They would be lucky to take it to 6. But overall they probably arent disciplined or focused enough to get that far. All i know is, if i see a first round exit with this squad, there better be a shake up because that would be horribly disappointing.

We have many problems. mostly no real leader at PG and no real #2 scorer. we are not a team on offense or defense.

What is funny sad is we helped Denver, Houston and GS to become better and breaking this team up now will help some key playoff teams get better with our vets. A little too ironic, don't you think?

Don't forget we built the Chicago Bulls we know today too

What is funny is taht we held all the cards in the melo trade yet we still dismanteled the team and future draft picks. If only melo would have waited but no he had to get as much money as he could before the lockout
