I expect a woman with the name CoCo to be hot, what a letdown.

Everyone hates Melo. People wish Melo were more like Lebron, Jordan, and Kobe. But those three guys had issues with coaches, management, and other players. Kobe got rid of Shaq. Jordan made demands to management and complained when he was told to eff himself. Lebron shenanigans is well documented.

Melo didnt like Jeremy Lin, didnt like Dantoni and he gets killed for it. (Both those guys didnt do anything afterwards).

Melo never had a good team. That's the only thing thats wrong with him if we're keeping it simple. He's scorer and a rebounder. Can be a good passer if he had players to pass to.

She is tennis player #47 in actual WTA rank. I like her cause I like bet on tennis WTA

Her best skills - fast and hard serve and prefers offensive raw style of play. She plays to the bitter end. She isn't soft for sure!

I'm not a huge fan of his, but Melo's the complete opposite of soft. She's talking out of her ass

I also thought somebody was mocking Kiki Vandeweghe with CoCo, as if Kiki Vandeweghe was that much of a hostile figure.

You do that for Reggie Miller, but Kiki of ALL people? hahaha

soft is the one thing that he objectively isn't.... and not even remotely so

In the process of defending Melo, I think you are legitimizing people's complaints. LBJ, Kobe and Jordan have won multiple titles. So whatever you say about them collectively, even in a negative light can be seen as a attribute that leads to winning. If all 3 are demanding a-holes with no regard for other people's feelings... maybe thats what it takes to win and what Melo is missing. And I dont think Melo is a killer and has the brutal mentality in him. fwiw, I think its more complex than that but Coco is keying on that one aspect.

I think he damned if he does or damned if he doesnt. As long has he doesnt win, anything he does or doesnt do is a reason why he is a loser until he wins.

Much like Eli Manning. He was bashed for being too quiet and not fierece enough. He wins two chips, he's cool, calm, collective, perfect personality for NY. Melo wont win until he wins.

even if she thought it, she really shouldn't have said that. you're a pro athlete, who happens to be a knick fan, who's uncle and grandfather were knicks?

Melos not soft. Everything else she said about him is true I just don't think she knows what the term soft means.

Anyone who keeps spouting this nonsense clearly does not understand the cap landscape going forward. Melo is a max player who got the max. Less than his full max btw but since he didn't take 15 mil in an environment where Paul Milsap gets 20 he's all about the money.

Dude, read some current events man
