Good things happen when you attack the basket of the pick'n roll.   We don't do this enough.   That's on coach.

Olynyk
Bass
Turner
Thornton
Pressey

Do not like this lineup

Same here. I'm also wondering why Thornton didn't get the starting nod either. Shumpert isn't a game-changer, so it's not like they were worried about his D.

This might be the most comfortable I have seen Larkin play in the NBA.

Finally, playing someone his own size!

I liked seeing Turner get Larkin on the switch momentarily there. I think that would be a good defensive matchup for Boston. Larkin is someone who can really be gotten at ... disrupted ... by length.

Struggles against size.

Bass has put up some pretty consistant numbers over his career. I wonder sometimes why he is held in such disdain. Best answer is, like many players, they are not meeting up to the poster's expectations rather than what their career history shows they actually are. To dislike him for not being the player YOU expect him to be is just a little unfair in my opinion.

[Who]

Hardaway turning into a JR Smith type gunner?

This is the third game in a row that the bench is out playing starters.

I like Bass a lot.  When he first came here, he was very limited -- needed 3 feet of space to feel comfortable taking a shot.  He mixes it up now, drives hard at times, and takes his jumper in a little more traffic than he used to.  And he always puts forth the effort.   I think he's a valuable role player for a good team.

Pretty much every player not on a rookie deal has a faction of posters who hate them. Same goes for Rondo, Bradley, Green....

[Who]

Good hands by Pressey deflecting that pass.

[Meadowlark_Scal]

as a TEAM, NY averages one assist per game...LOL.....

[jpotter33]

I'm not sure about Turner on Melo...

That can't be true.

[KeepRondo]

I'm not sure about Turner on Melo...

he seems to be frustrating him.
