Lin & Stoudemire won't be a problem. Pick & Roll will thrive now. Lin & Melo is the big question but I get the feeling Melo will make the adjustments and stop being a selfish prick.

I don't see that happening, but you never know. I just don't see Melo changing.

every time Lin makes a big pass that results in someone getting a big bucket, Melo is the first one jumping off the bench.

I just get the feeling he's getting a first-hand look at what this offense can do when everyone buys into it.

Orlando wouldnt accept that -_____-
Better than letting him walk

Bosh is still a great player when he's playing with one/none of the other 2/3rds of the Big 3. Put some nice things around him the way Toronto couldn't and you're still a contender.

But then again Orlando couldn't put enough around Dwight in all the years he was there so it's doubtful they could build around Bosh properly.

How many times do we have to see the Heat and Hawks play?

People really expect Melo to change his entire game because of Jeremy Lin?

I'd take Lopez, Brooks, and 2 future firsts over Bosh, Cole, and a 2017 1st (their next eligible 1st rounder to trade), easily.

This game went from a very good matchup to "eh" when Rose was ruled out.

That was a lackluster end. Down by 6 points with 9 seconds left and Deng went for a layup. Not saying they would have won, but make a 3 combined with Pietrus missed FT's at the end, could of had a chance for OT. Still, Bulls almost got a win without Rose.

brandon knight and greg monroe have such good flow already, its all knoted up at 45 though so the wiz better come out of the half and kill it.
