I just wish Bradley was 2" taller. Kidd is going to give him fits.

We need another big.

That is all

I can't explain how bad Bass hurts this team. The mismatch should be the sf (Melo) guarding our PF. But Bass is awful in the low post.

Now if that had been Sully, ...
Carmelo is like 6-8 and 240lbs. Bass is 6-8, 245lbs. There isn't a mismatch.

Carmelo is a big strong physical quick forward. He can most power forwards defensively in the post. It's the only real big strong / tall ones that have an advantage on him down on the box.

Why was Bradley defending Carmelo?

Those late whistles, especially on Sullinger are going to give me an aneurysm.

Jeez, it looked like Amare was just toying with Sullinger there.

Clearly too quick and explosive for Sullinger.

Leave him on Sully in the post. I guarantee you will notice the mismatch.

What happened to Sullinger? He looks like he gained 20 lbs since I last saw him play, and they're all below the waist.

I love those face up, jab steps and drain a jumper right in your face type moves.

IDK man he's always been a big thick guy. He's never been svelte

Sullinger is one of those real strong power forwards. What is he? 270-280lbs? How many power forwards in the league have his bulk and strength in the paint?

I think you are asking too much of Bass (and/or most other role player level PFs) to be able to force a mismatch against Carmelo in the post. There simply aren't many guys who can do that. It is undeserved criticism.
