Carmelo is just bad at basketball now. It was expected with decreased usage that his efficiency would rise but it did the opposite. He's really poor at every aspect of the game and should be nothing more than a 15 min a game bench player.
They still should have probably been better than they were but Westbrook/George's skill sets don't fit together too well and Donovan isn't exactly a good coach. [Reply]

You were right. Not sure that I'd call professionals and some of the best players in the world trash, but Milwaukee has a lot of work to do in the off season if they don't want to make it ten straight first round exits. They need another big until they figure out if Maker will work out. The Freak, Brogdon, and Middleton stay, and everyone else goes. Especially that coach. The Freak can't do it all by himself, or only with occasional help from the rest of the roster even against one of the worst two seeds in league history [Reply]

It's all relative. They are all obviously among the top 150 basketball players in the world.
And Milwaukee just needs better players. They only have one great one and some other decent pieces. It's not enough. [Reply]
Hard to see the Warriors losing a game in this series. The Pelicans aren't good enough offensively to keep up with them and they aren't good enough defensively to even bother them. [Reply]
Just hope my Sixers can take advantage of the Celtics having to play two more tough games In the last week. Every week that goes by where Embiid heals, the better it will be for us. [Reply]

IMO they will. I bet they win in 6 or less. [Reply]

They look like the team to beat in the East right now [Reply]
