I see a lot of the triangle being worked. Its just that they are working the weak side of it for the last 5 minutes.

EXACTLY!!!

Tuned in late in the 1st. Is this a Rucker League game?
gunsnewing @ 10/20/2014 8:10 PM
Pretty much. The more Amare & JR. play the more points we give up. Simple math
knickscity @ 10/20/2014 8:14 PM
I was expecting defense....so far, no so much.
Splat @ 10/20/2014 8:14 PM
Larkin is really good with the give and go with our big men
yellowboy90 @ 10/20/2014 8:15 PM
Hardaway continues to give up buckets.
knickscity @ 10/20/2014 8:16 PM
OJ Mayo...15 points in 7 minutes....

Fish has his work to do on the D. They aren't gettin into their shooters. Bucks are tough cuz they can drive and shoot.
Splat @ 10/20/2014 8:19 PM
I love the way Wear moves on the court. On both ends.
nixluva @ 10/20/2014 8:24 PM
Wear really needs to make the team.
Splat @ 10/20/2014 8:26 PM
Wear must stay. Guy has all the tools. He actually has a pretty good handle which is rare. He can shoot and pass. One of the only players who has full court awareness on both ends and the correct footwork to get where he needs to be. Its a no brainer at this point. He's certainly more valuable than Acy.

Wear > Amare or Bargs already

Finestrg @ 10/20/2014 8:27 PM
The D doesn't look great. Guys are blowing right by our defenders and we're not closing out hard enough. A little bit these Buck shooters are red hot...has mayo missed yet?

How good a player is this Khris Middleton?

Timmy really giving us the offensive spark tonight

John Starks without the defense

Bucks pretty much dictating the pace of the game.
Splat @ 10/20/2014 8:35 PM
Jason Smith has no paint presence at all. Bucks are going right down the lane.

Starting Smith next to Sam may be good, because he is not looking like a backup Center at all. He's an offensive forward that gives us spacing and range on offense, but he is not a closer on defense so far.

We are going to have to get someone else to backup Sam or else our D is already in big trouble. Acy is not a center. Cole may have to be given a shot, but he may not be a full fledged answer on D either. Wear is probably too slight a frame to body up in the paint.

This is going to be a challenge. Amare ain't the answer at Center. Duh. Bargs was the only physical specimen who fits the bill on paper, but he's in outer space.

Damn

He seems to be growing into a good spot up shooter. His defense needs work but he is still maturing. I wanted to trade for him since early last year. He is a RFA this summer.

Splat @ 10/20/2014 8:36 PM
All that dump Pablo talk looks silly now
gunsnewing @ 10/20/2014 8:39 PM
You start and play amare & JR and the team looks very similar to last year's defensively.

If we want to win we need more Shumpert, Dalembert and acy. I think Fisher knows this

yellowboy90 @ 10/20/2014 8:40 PM
That should've been Melo 6 ast in the half.
yellowboy90 @ 10/20/2014 8:42 PM
They went 2 for 1. amazing!
