D'Antoni's actually done a pretty good job of keeping at least one of them on the floor.

Hard to get the ball out of Shumpert's hands.

Re: Our bench
See the problem is our bench. Not only this, but if we remove Melo from the picture, Amare should be like last year, dominant. He wasn't, we only see this in the 1st quarter and then it goes down the drain. Of course putting Amare in there without Melo, he doesn't have Gallo, Chandler, Mozgov anymore or Felton. But he has Shumpert, and Tyson. You can't tell me these guys can't AT LEAST cover for Gallo and what Chandler used to do for the team.
It's just, no one here can create their own shot. We have poor shot selection, we have good ball rotation and then after the first quarter, where did it go?
Honestly. These are grown men, millionaire professional athletes , I'm not going to stress any longer about this team. They want to make the playoffs, play ball. If not, I'll be watching the playoffs REGARDLESS, and WILL have favoritism in teams advancing.

Re: Our bench
I don't mind we didn't get Dalembert, Tyson is doing good so far, he effects the game more then we think and stats doesn't tell a story for him.

LOL, what? That's like saying he has cool tattoos. Doesn't help him on the court at all.

The team needs some leadership. Someone with work ethic and a basketball IQ. Its not on this roster.
Hard to coach a team that has been revamped this many times.

I just think our projected starting backcourt would be best if both of them came off the bench, which would help bolster our bench.
Our guys just aren't terrible, but they aren't household names yet.
I feel soooooo vindicated.
We have to admit, our bench has held it down, matured, gained chemistry, and has been laying it on the line out there.
They don't look so bad now.
I've risked my credibility with these guys.
