    I dont know how well pressuring the ball handler works at the nba level.

    But even that takes practice to not miss out on rotations as well as assignments etc.

    Because he's not a real superstar and you can't win with him as your best player.

    The Nuggets actually had really good and deep teams, but Kobe shit on Melo and showed him what a real superstar looks like.

    08 quarterfinals:
    Kobe - 34/6/5 50%
    Melo - 23/10/2 36% ()

    09 WCF:
    Kobe - 34/6/6 48%
    Melo - 28/5/4 41%

    that's what's gonna happen no matter where he plays or who he plays with.
    Thing is, Dion pretty much did the same thing, frequently.

    JR is taller, and a better shooter though. He's also of course more of a 2/3 as opposed to a 1/2 like Dion, where we had a bit of a log-jam. (thank-god no more having to watch that 3-guard lineup w/ Kyrie, Dion, and Delly all out there!)

    The more I've thought about this deal, the less-pissed I am about it. Obviously the addition of Shump' should help big-time too.

    I will miss Dion though, and def. wish him the best in OKC.

    Now let's go get that rim-protector!

    Let these loser McBron fans find out the hard way. I'm thrilled that dumb-ass is gone.
