I don't agree about him being a defensive pressence in this game. He's also let Plumlee abuse him several times.

I spoke too soon when I said that, he's reverted back to the non-factor he's been the last 10 games. It was just a few early possessions where he looked good but it didn't last.

This unit is WAY more energetic on D!

O'Quinn with the SWEET no look pass... to Derek Fisher. Oops.

Once Gallo, KOQ and Thomas were inserted in the lineup, the D and energy improved dramatically!

The 1st unit had 1 rebound in the first 8 minutes with Lopez and KP...really?

Aa needs to take a seat as well ... He looks out of shape

KOQ needs to start.....
nixluva @ 12/12/2015 10:33 PM
Fish simply MUST change the starting lineup and rethink his rotation. There's a lot of change needed IMO!
SocraticBallin22 @ 12/12/2015 10:34 PM
The more I see Vujajic playing over Jerian, the more I want to give Fish a wet willie!

Nice Triangle action on KOQ to Sasha.

Oh yeah...and if I have to watch ROLO get the ball in the High Post one more time and squeeze the life out of the ball trying to initiate offense....ugh!
nixluva @ 12/12/2015 10:38 PM
Fish is probably gonna wait to get off the road to make his rotation changes. He can't keep this starting lineup based on another slow start. That group just doesn't work against smaller and quicker lineups. The energy on D changes so much when the bench comes in. We need that at the start of games.
nyknickzingis @ 12/12/2015 10:38 PM
They're too slow and lack energy or execution with the starters. Need a tweak. It's been obvious.
If they're sticking with Lopez/Porzingis/Melo up front, need some speed in the backcourt with Galloway/Grant. Something with speed to compliment the size.

KP starting next to Melo and Rolo is hurting his development.

At least the second unit is providing that spark that they did in the beginning of the season. Sasha has been making a nice impact.
