KO and Williams= SPEED and athleticism

Please..no ROLO or Calderson...keep Gallo and KOQ in..if Fish yanks them...we will lose! Book it!
Chandler @ 12/13/2015 12:09 AM
Williams and koq are earning minutes. Fisher walk the walk now. These guys need to play
crzymdups @ 12/13/2015 12:09 AM
Quietly excellent games tonight from Lance and Afflalo and Galloway. Those three KOQ, DWill and Melo have been our best six players.

I had a sense he did this. Early in the games they were actually feeding KP. I had to rub my eyes to make sure. I think KP played poorly simply because he was they were surprised they were passing to him

I think he is playing poorly. I think teams are adjusting to him. He had amazing offensive rebounding numbers to start the season but they have declined. Teams are adjusting. I think Porzingis is going to be a hof but I think it is a process. He is a quick study but you have to expect teams/coaches to recognizes his strengths and weaknesses and start to game plan around them. To not do that would be stupid and not thorough.

The key for KP is to keep moving and use the curls and pop out off down screens for easy shots. He kept trying to drive from too far out IMO! Simple remedy is get the ball in space on the move.

KP is not the focal point on offense, next to Melo. So his timing is going to be up and down. They should've never started him, but rather start the vets with Melo....and bring Grant and KP off the bench. Now it's too late....But it's clear that KOQ and Dwill need more time.

one could argue that is the reason why KP has been successful. He is just going through a rookie stretch. It happens. I though he got several good looks tonight that he missed or fumbled

probably because fish took him out which i don't understand because he's playing well

ROLO in for KOQ. NICE MOVE FISH

Portland immediately gets a layup. Seriously, Fish?

Knicks1969 @ 12/13/2015 12:10 AM
Oh oh, RoLo
Chandler @ 12/13/2015 12:10 AM
Lame call.

Yea I know I'm pissed about it too

SocraticBallin22 @ 12/13/2015 12:11 AM
I'm on the record right now that Fisher should go back to DWILl and KOQ to finish game

KOQ has no speed... but he knows how to run the Triangle from the high post. DWill plays so much better with KOQ on the floor.

fitzfarm @ 12/13/2015 12:11 AM
Wtf is Rolo doing in the game

It should be clear by now, this team needs more speed.....and energy to succeed. This is why KOQ and Lance and Dwill are helping us win. Rolo and KP are tall, but too slow for todays up and down transition teams.

Gallo having another good game. Nice to see him back.

Why must RoLo be on the floor? Put in Williams instead

Lillard 2-2 in the paint since Rolo came in for KOQ.

Fisher!
