and with all that he is 8-17 which is good. However, how much better can he be if the ball didn't stick. He has so much damn talent that he is leaving on the table. He did make 3 passes for potential assists in the second half but he should be averaging a minimum of 5 assists.
47 % (or TS% of 58)
5 assists
These 2 would make him a bonifide top 5 player.
another bad shot at 3:55 by melo and saved by prigioni. you can't get that many assists if you are shooting that many bad shots. and thanks to prigioni he gets a clean look. the prigioni offensive rebound will be forgotten of course.
Curious to see what Phil will do with Melo. I think he is an easier fix than Kobe. Kobe is a loose cannon.
Win or lose, I love the old grumpy white guys who cover Boston.

garbage time.
against a lottery team melo goes
11-25
2 assists
59%TS
that is efficient scoring but against a pacer or heat team he is not going to help his team win.
tomorrow morning we should look at basketballreference.com and see what his usage and and assist rate is. my guess based on the eye test is that the ratio will remain 2:1 or greater. around 34% and 16%
that is counterproductive.
Shame... I think this would have been Chris Smith's breakout game.

He has had far worse games. This was not even that bad.
Don't know why he rarely head fakes his defender.
His defense and rebounding looked strong tonight.
Its all about assists for him. If he passes more he will/can be near top 5. If he doesn't, 12-15.

Agreed. That's why my accountant is coming with me on my next vacation. Remind me why I can't afford to enjoy this trip!
12 points, 10 rebounds, 31 teeth. Nice stat line.

Forget the hate, some people are just in the middle on this.
Crush, think about it, how much better would he be without those shots? They are so painful to watch and he can be so much better/smarter.
It is a bit frustrating.
You know that Phil will not stand for that and that must make Melo a bit nervous. Phil will not be an enabler. I also this he can fix him.

so "a win is a win"? the knicks looked great early on and built a lead with great ball movement and only 3 bad shots by melo during that time.
we talking a rondo-less celtic team and sub-par defenders covering melo. you think lebron and paul george and haslem and batter are going to provide melo with looks? please wake the fuck up

A rondoless celtic team beat us by 40. So yes. A win is a win. However, we do need to learn from our mistakes and I agree that if we made the playoffs, those contested chucks by Melo (AND JR!!) are extremely painful and we can't win that way.
THJr making a run at Reggie's shooting stats. lol. the turnaround has begun.
