OT: KG insults Melo's wife - Melo goes to C's locker room

[Harry Palmer]

The code is words < actions. Seems pretty easy to me.

There are no lines in trash talk, there is no definitive "this is too much" moment. It's all in the eye of the beholder.

u mean, in terms of retaliating with violence? kg can say w.e. he wants but sometimes ppl are going to want to punch him for it. it's all in the game.

not really.. since one guy won and the other lost

i have no idea what this means (and it probably means nothing).

THE SAME PRIDE THAT GOT MELO TO BE A GR8 ISOLATION SCORER IS THE SAME ATTITUDE THAT MAKES HIM WANT TO FIGHT KG. u guys wouldn't understand. u guys let people talk **** about yer life-partners in public? wow!

Someone somewhere is saying bad things about Melo on the Internet.

Melo tracks them down, beats them up, goes to jail for 5 years when the 'your Honor, he called me names' defence proves surprisingly ineffective, his team loses, etc.

Pride In Action.

Or is there something called a brain which makes decisions for us, based on cost/benefit?

trash talking and owning Melo's mind caused him to miss 20 shots.. KG won Melo lost. thats the only part of the game that "its all in the game" means.

[Chaos Engine]

In sports wives and gfs are talked about ALL THE TIME. This is nothing new. GG garnett, gg.

well obviously in this game that was not the case since he danced on puppet strings for KG and missed 20 shots.. how many players/fans/internet trolls are making fun of Melo right this second? or even KG? guess he has to fight them all at the bike racks after school lol.. he should have used that anger and dunk in KG face or made some shots to win the game, or got more boards or played better D. instead of getting mind controlled..

[UnderdogRaptors]

Melo got mindfuqed by one of the best of all time and Pierce punked the Knicks and knick fans at MSG like he usually does

omg, are none of you d00dz familiar with the 'say it to my face' stipulation on this stuff? pretty sure melo would try to smack anyone irl that talked about his wife or w.e.

KG did say it to his face... he could have thrown punches in the middle of the game but he didnt.. guess melo doesnt keep it as real as u think.

Then every team he faces should get someone to do it nightly.

That's that team solved. Next?

GUYS, OKAY. SET A BASELINE SCREEN. IF MELO SWITCHES OUT ONTO YOU, TELL HIM, LOUDLY, THAT YOU WISH DEATH ON HIS 5-YR OLD SON.

[bballsparkin]

For all we know KG and Melo have a history. Maybe KG talked **** around his wife before in another situation. Who knows? I was watching the game and Melo sure looked pissed. And since it's KG, a player I respect but who's antics I don't, I don't mind seeing Melo get mad. As to who could take who? They're both pretty big so it could go either way.

[Courtside Cynic]

Carmelo should have called up Garnett's wife, Brandi Padilla, after the game to discuss how Garnett has been cheating on her with Carmelo's wife. I think that might prevent Garnett from opening his mouth to spew this kind of crap in the future.

Seems fair to me at any rate.

Why wait for the switch? Do it Pre-game, let him take himself out as early as possible.

And don't even go to the dead kid stuff...save that for a time when he shows some restraint. Just compare his wife to a breakfast cereal, seems to so the trick.

Now, we need to find out what the magic words are for Durant, Lebron et al. Shreddies?

amen. it seems that a lot of grown men want to fight on the sensitivity battleground.. pro sports is not the place for thin skin, or mentally weak ppl

Why not? It happens in hockey. Football to a degree. KG is free to say whatever he wants. Melo can punch him in the face and deal with the repercussions. What's cool or no big deal to some people is the opposite to others. When people say punk ass comments a punch in the face is a distinct possibility. On the courts or on the streets.

I agree 100% if the motivation is to "get back at the bad man that hurt my feelings." But the real way to get back at him is to win the game..
