Title: Carmelo Shutdown the numbers
Post by: j804 on January 08, 2013, 06:19:57 PM

Saw this over on ESPNBoston just like Pierce said he's probably the MVP across the league and to hold him down like that. Good job good effort.  ;D

I thought that Green also did an excellent job guarding Melo last night...really got into him and stayed with him.

I think Green got into Carmelo's head , he was so physical that melo was not shooting against him (that's why the defensive numbers don't show up) and melo tried to respond with his own physical play wich got him his 4th foul midway through the 3rd ...

green did play some his most agressive "D" on Carmelo so far this year.

Ol Jeffy Green seemed like he was enjoying his role last night and more at ease.
