1) Landry Fields pushed his way slowly into becoming a legitimate perimeter threat over the last few weeks of the season, especially down the stretch, please regard me while I provide some provocation for that statement.
He is currently shooting 40 percent from three point range, while Danilo and Chandler who took up the bulk of our perimeter shots as well as scoring load shot 35 percent respectfully. Fields will improve drastically with more open looks as well as more week side finishes, as well as week side rebounds which he seems to specialize in ( hence his amazing put backs atleast once a game ), No one will pay attention to him while all the focus is on amare and melo.
2) Our role players are now our role players. Meaning in this sytem Walker shooting 42 percent from three, Williams shooting 48 percent from three, billups shooting 45 percent from three, along with fields shooting 40 percent from three, gives us one of the most potent three point shooting teams in the entire NBA. Every open shot that Gallo would air ball, that chandler would hit 3 in a row then miss 7 in a row, will be divided up between 4-5 legitimate knock down three point shooters.
3) Amare and Melo can play together, Just watch this offense in how many open looks mozgof recieved by Amare catching the ball and running pick and rolls at the top of the elbow. Melo will easily take the ball where Amare has been forced to get it, leaving Amare coming in from the weak side of the paint, as well as curling off turiaf screens towards the key while teams try to figure out how to keep Melo from getting the basket, all the while ( back to FACTOR number 2) 3 knock down shooters wait in the wings for wide open threes when every player on the opposing team is drawn into the lane, and if Amare doesnt catch the ball under the basket, or the key, then fields will be slashing right behind him, giving another wing player the responsibility of running after fields, while deciding whether to double down on Melo. Its priceless.
4) Mike Dantoni has made Gallinari, Chandler, Felton better than they really are and the proof is in the pudding, similar to Boris Diaws explosion in Amare's absence a few years ago, the aforementioned traded players all were products of a system that in truth gallo and chandler under achieved in, and felton over achieved in. Point....Carmelo, Amare and Billups all have proven they dont need Dantonis system to dominate and win in this league, something Mike DAntoni has not been afforded the opportunity to coach since he took over the bench for the Knickerbockers 2 and a half seasons ago. Amare, Billups and Melo will be in auto drive regardless of Mikes system, the ones who will benefit are the slashing young shooters coming off the bench running in circles while Amare Billips and Melo pick and pop and rolls and drop and curls until the cows come home.
5) We will either get what we want, or get what we want with this trade.
Confused.
explanation
If Mike Dantoni is a real coach, he will realize everything I just said and make it work to the best of its potential, if he is a terrible coach, we will under acheive and play well beneath the potential of two stars. Amare and Melo will struggle, Billups will look lost, and the bench players will fade to the back ground due to lack of open looks. SO all the debates over Mike Dantoni will be solved in this; with two stars, four 40 plus percentage three point threats, a veteran savy defensive facilitator point guard we should flourish, if we dont, then we can finally have proof Mike D is a failure as a coach, but if they excel, and push to the second round or further; then Mike D is worth the price of admission.
Extra FACTOR
Melo 25 ppg - Lebron 26 ppg
Amare 26 ppg - Bosh 18 ppg
Billups 16 ppg - Wade 25 ppg
Role players
Rony Turiaf - Joel Anthony
Douglas - Arroyo
Walker - Chalmers
Big Z - Sheldon williams
S Williams - Miller
J.Jones - Brewer
You may want to read this post twice, just to understand the break down of how truly good we are going to be.
Any questions ??
