Amar'e really needs to be more selective with his drvies. You can't just lower your head and try to bulldoze your way through 3 Cav defenders. Very poor decision on his part and it led to an unecessary offensive foul.

 

He should continue to look to attack the offensive glass as he has been very effective doing that so far. When he looks to create his own offense, he has struggled.

 

Nice 6-0 run out of the timeout for the Knicks to take the lead, 31-29.

Irving making terrible decisions out there.

 

His last three possessions he put Varejao in a terrible position which led to a charge, he took a pull up three from 30 feet with 20 seconds on the clock still and then got himself out of control which resulted in him trying to force a pass between three Knick defenders and ended up in a turnover.

Much better play by Irving there. Took the attempted trap off of the pick and feed Varejao with a nice bounce pass for the dunk.

 

Good job of being patient and sucking in the defense. Earlier in the game he was trying to force that pass to Varejao too early and it was resulting in turnovers or difficult shots. He let the play develop more this time and it led to an easy two points.

A 3 on 1 break for the Knicks and they commit an offensive foul because they all ran way too close to each other.

 

Terrible execution on the break. You have to spread out more so that the lone defender doesn't have time to react like that.

Douglas and Walker are stupid, they both catch a ball with one foot OOB like every other game.

You're acting as though it's not even an argument? I've always considered them equals in every way possible.

 

Anderson has always been an underrated beast; he was a integral part of that Cavaliers NBA-Final run.

If that's your argument, that's pretty pathetic.

 

This season, Noah's averaging 7.7 points and 8.4 rebounds, and Varejao's averaging 9.8 points and 10.9 rebounds

 

So 16 games is more meaningful than the past 3 seasons in which Noah easily outproduced Varejao offensively, on the glass, passing, blocking shots and being a superior defender?

 

I'm sorry, but that's pretty pathetic.

 

Varejao is a good player, the type of guy that pretty much every team would want on their team, but he is not better than Noah. This is the best season Varejao has ever had (and it is still only 16 games) and yet it isn't better than anything Noah has done since his 2nd season in the league. The only reason to take Varejao over Noah is because he is cheaper.
