Shump is getting me on my nerves. Wide open lanes to the hoop, and he rather shoot jumpshots. I am not sure what his deal is.

that injury screwed him up. His is afraid to try and use the explosiveness

Novak needs to use his brain and straggle up the court more often,the man guarding him tries to double the guy with the ball. Seems to me it will always lead to an open look.

Next two series he needs to remember that.

Melo needs to find his shot post-haste.

Yeah, Melo isn't taking all the way on slow Bass. Melo looks like he isn't trying to shoot any free throws today.

he has to calm down. yes we need him badly but id rather he wait until he finds a lane or has a one on one

Green never misses in the first half. He just dissapears later.
StarksEwing1 @ 4/28/2013 1:25 PM
doc better not complain about the refs today
NYDiva @ 4/28/2013 1:27 PM
It's Game 1 Jeff Green again.
NYDiva @ 4/28/2013 1:28 PM
Novak has really got to hit those.

MELO!

VDesai @ 4/28/2013 1:28 PM

StarksEwing1 @ 4/28/2013 1:32 PM
we desperately need someone to step up. Novak looks more aggressive at least but we need someone like copeland to give us some offense

We're gonna need somebody other than Melo to hit a few shots. Take some of this double team off him.

He's been fouled blatantly on 4 of his first 6 shot attempts but he's starting to adapt. the worst thing they can do is get him into bully ball mode cause he's the best in the league at that style.

Melo's and1 was huge at the end of the quarter. 5 point game after that quarter? I'll take it.

And Novak faking out 2 C's on the pump fake was great, needs to hit it though.

Sangfroid @ 4/28/2013 1:34 PM
I have to question Q-Rich in the rotation.
VDesai @ 4/28/2013 1:34 PM
Why Richardson over Copeland? Ridiculous
nycisgreat @ 4/28/2013 1:34 PM
WHY THE F IS Q PlAYING OVER COPELAND AND WE NEED POINTS?
