Billy Donovan is doing awful right now. Trying to fit 3 great players into his system, when he should be building his system around 3 great players.

Where is Westbrook's aggressiveness? It's just ego now. He cares more about Ricky Rubio's stats than winning a game. Why is Melo only taking long jumpers and 3's? This guy can score in every possible way. Why does Paul George have a leash on him? Let these guys play ball. Stop neutering them!

On the other hand, the Jazz are a joy to watch. Mitchell is an incredible rookie, Rubio is turning the corner, Favors/Gobert are doing great, Ingles is making 3's and getting in the Thunder's head. They are playing as a team, and not a group of neutered and confused individual players.

Melo deserves better. He was defending Westbrook's childish antics before the scuffle with Crowder (which got Crowder kicked out but should've got Westbrook kicked out, topped off with Westbrook getting away with a fine for leaving the bench, but we all know the NBA prefers star players over the integrity of the game). How about Melo and Donovan arguing about a set play in the middle of the court for 5 minutes right before Melo blew it. Great coaching there Donovan, way to be sneaky. Nobody saw that play coming. Why not just tell the announcers beforehand?
