To be clear, Melo wasn’t taking a shot at Lin, he was taking a shot at the Rockets for the ridiculous $14.9M balloon in Year 3.

I'm done with this team if they don't match. TKF was right.

So we gonna act like that isn't a ridiculous contract & we haven't been spending the last couple of days lamenting on that ridiculous contract offer by the Rockets?

I mean really?


That's fine for us as fans. But for a peer in the business to take a shot at another player's earnings like that and to do it publicly? That's a whole different story.

I can't even support Melo anymore which I've been doing 100% till now -- guy is dumb as bricks.

KS no offense bruh but you've been posting with a lot of emotions involved even going back to last night. You need to relax, calm down, think clearly & think if that Melo really said that the way it was taken.

Stop defending him Alan. He's an idiot to say that.

Melo said that. There's no doubt in my mind that he didn't mean it the way it sounded, but it's still stupid.

Knick4Real wrote:So let me get this straight:

KINCKS turn Jared Jeffries and Dan Gadzuric into Raymond Felton and Kurt Thomas, so that AUTOMATICALLY means we're not matching Lin???????????

Um...is everybody smoking from the same pipe???

200+ pages over made up rumors, opinions and hearsay, with NO PROOF of anything substantial.

Has anyone stopped to consider that with the CBA change, maybe we're collecting assets? Has anyone considered maybe we have some future deal in mind? Has anyone considered that since only ONE offer sheet for Lin was signed on a SATURDAY, while every executive was in Las Vegas, that there is plenty of time to match or not??

Or is it more fun to jump to A TON of conclusions and already start bashing Lin, Dolan, Grunwald, etc. for something that hasn't even happened yet?!?!?!?

SMH KNICKS fans are really "special" ! :noway:

+1 Everything has been rumors and heresay... NOTHING official, I agree with you.

Looks like we've got a whole truckload of candidates here....


:lol: What for? Are we fans of the Knicks or fans of players? Things happen. Sometimes things you don't like or understand. You live with it and move on.

Lol. Seems like Melo is the Knicks punching bag when he's clearly our best player. You don't know what question the reporter asked or anything.

Exactly. Melo ran Lin out of NY. (And I'm not being snarky.) I betcha Melo complained about playing with Lin, just like he complained about playing for D'Antoni. He's a byatch this f-ing Melo.
