Alienating Melo is an absolutely terrible idea. You're smarter than this.

I’d think if this was a decision that could impact Melo’s relationship with Syracuse long term, Red should be fired tomorrow. I’m close to 100% certain he won’t be fired even if that is the case.

Guessing Red doesn’t want to play him just because his last name is Anthony. He needs to be better.

Hunh. If hes not injured, could it be about the SMH, & sinking ship, as much as Anthony's play?

Agreed, he should be better, but so should half the team.

Kline did not assemble a good team…I will say that much. He will follow the rest of these castoffs in the offseason.

lol

you realize this isnt fantasy football right?

you think he wouldnt have taken dybantsa, etc? but he just preferred this roster?

its almost as clueless as holding gerry macnamaras results against him at siena...i mean what do you people expect?

the talent isnt the issue...but the talent isnt also just open choice, either

Watching Duke at Carolina right now.

When Red says there’s nothing wrong with our offense… I’m seeing similar stuff from both Duke and NC. The difference seems to be that they both have players with enough skill and strength to still be able to execute efficiently. Example: They can execute guard to post passes, and their post player takes a dribble or two and completes a competent move. Our center dribbles ten times and pivots three times and then has to chuck it out. And that’s IF he can even field the entry pass.

Teams without the pure NBA talent have to do things differently.

[Oof. Just saw Maliq make two consecutive turnovers on crappy, overambitious entry passes, so maybe they haven’t washed the SU completely out of him yet?]

One thing I noticed was that Donnie let guys get past him far more times that JJ did. Small consolation, but they kept it close for a while.

Donnie let more people pass by without caring than a bouncer at Chuck's.
