Message: [QUOTE="cuseinseattle, post: 2585109, member: 2504"] This just goes to show taking a reduced role and playing a role not ideally suited for you makes no sense. I get he wanted to win but in the end you just get vilified as the whole reason it doesn’t work while Westbrook chucks up 30-40 shots a game at a field goal percentage below the league average. It’s like playing through injury makes no sense. People say players should do it if it helps the team and then when the results are reduced because the players hurt they are a bum now. They could have rested Melo more due to his knee, they could have had him post up other 4’s and run some stuff for him but they wanted to have Russ take the ball to the rim 100 times a game and just have Melo space the floor and shoot 3’s. Melo is aging and his skills are diminishing but the idea that he is their main problem is preposterous. [/QUOTE]
