Actually, that would have been Melo's ideal home. He actually is Rucker's champion material, but in the NBA he is basically a stat-padder

Nah. I hate that **** too. Worse, we're not even gonna be able to watch the really good prospects either this time.
Johnny Hoops wrote:If I had to guess I would say that our most recent slide in defensive effort and yes it is blatantly obvious in past 4-5 games.....is that Melo has an issue with Rambis and is rebelling against what Kurt is asking him/us to do defensively.
When this happens Melo goes into his passive-aggressive "chick" mode and plays with half hearted effort that infects the rest of the team like a malignant tumor.
We've seen the same story play out over and over and over -- when Melo is engaged and everything is structured to his preferences the guy can play like a stud but the second anybody tweaks him he goes into vagina mode .... Dragging the team down into the abyss with him.
More and more each broadcast/post game is built around shots across Melo's nose --- his effort is obvious to anyone without blinders on and once again he is killing another team from the inside out.

That's nice to know, what does any of that have to do with being disgusted by a 60 point game that was actually efficient tho?
And that clown Johnny didn't realize we were worse than the Hornets at that time period

DE FENSE wrote:I used to love me some Melo, but now its painfully clear that he is the biggest problem on this team. Whether he likes it or not, he is a leader on this team and, whether he likes it or not, leaders lead by example. The example he has made this season, game after game after game, is one of "get yours at the expense of team basketball" and "take defensive possessions off so that you can conserve energy for the offense." This is in sharp contrast to what their coach and most players wanted out of this team before the season started.
This was Melo's chance to blend into a team with plenty of talent and just be a key cog in a well-oiled machine. He needs to take a long look in the mirror and be honest with himself. He can be a good defender if he wanted to. He is fully capable of doing the things that this team needs. And if he is in fact injured, well then he needs to be honest about that fact too and make sure he is not a detriment to the team.

You wanna know why? Because they'd rather have it look pretty. And nothing pretty about Melo killing a guy one on one nonstop. He can't do it as much anymore so they call him out on it now. Before they had no choice but to eat their words because he was unstoppable
We never had to eat our words when Melo was "killing it" because not everyone agrees that he has ever been a proper # 1 option. You can hero worship his glory days, but not everybody was his lap dog falling all over themselves to applaud his low efficiency, me-first style of play
Melo has the heart of a mouse, not a champion. He could never lead a team to glory. He thinks he's an alpha, but he is just a chucker with a false sense of entitlement
So nobody ever had to eat a single word spoken in criticism about Melo because some of us have always been right that you cannot build a team around Melo. The guy can be added to a team with other alphas if he would fall into line, but any team that is constructed around this diva is dooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmeeeeeeeeedddddddddd to failure
And enough of us have been right about this all along
Bon Appetit!
Your back again? Can I repsond or are you going to request for moderator intervention?
The fact is you actually sat there and took it this year after you went on another tirade when Melo played poorly, only to sit quietly and not say a peep as he went god mode against ATL. I don't even need to address past years where he alone came to play every night as the roster around him withered and died.
There are folks who want to see a rebuild because that's what they feel is best for the Knicks. Even then, they support the W's and cope with the losses.
Then there's folks like you. Who only show up after losses to thump your chest about how much Melo sucks.
Like I've been saying, there are fans ready for a rebuild. Then there are fans like you and a few others who are strictly here for Melo failure.
I'm sorry you don't live in a world where putting a scrappy roster around a top player will get you far. I'm sorry you don't have the guts to take the good times with the bad. I'm sorry your definition of fandom is finding a scapegoat.
To clarify, I'm not sorry for you. Im sorry for myself and others that have to deal with you and your soapbox squadron instead of being able to talk hoops on a forum with fellow miserable Knicks fans.

I'm harsh in my critiques, but I'm actually nice to everyone except liars and hostile nut jobs like you whose whole life force is fueled by making up stories about "agendas"
You are the absolute King of Mischaracterization who says things like the bold above even when it is the opposite of the truth
Nobody cares what you have to say. I've alienated plenty because I stick up for myself when the majority doesn't side with me, but you on the other hand are a special breed of stupid that only other low IQ types can actually respect.
You're both a nut job and a liar who fabricates daily fictions about how your opponents conduct themselves.
You and a couple like you have done your very best to dominate and control this board this season so up yours.
Ya happy now you flipping agenda troll?

Attack the post, not the poster. If you guys want to get all personal about it, take it to PM.
Take that as a warning for both of you guys.
This thread is bad enough as it is with people complaining about this, that, and the third. No need for petty back and forths.

Count me out -- I was just as disgusted watching him chuck for +60 against a weak ass Hornets team a few years ago as I will be to watch him chuck for 20, 30 or 40 at any point in the future.
Just want him gone -- no love here -- no hero worship because a guy chucks up 9 for 28 on a way to a big scoring night.
Lolololololol
The level of dislike you have for Melo is
What kind of person doesn't like a game where someone lights it up for 60.
You must be a real joy to be with at the Rucker or Dyckman.

If I want to go and enjoy players struttin' their stuff and lighting it up, then I'll go to Rucker or Dyckman. BUT WHEN I WATCH THE FCKING KNICKS, I WANT TO FCKING WIN!!!!!!! And I don't care how pretty it looks either. Did you forget the 80s-90s Knicks?
Other than that, I hope you're having a Breezey day.

But we won the flipping game man!
The NBA is built off of 50, 60 point games, it's fun.
When the hell did we get so serious off of a child's sport
But thank you Wingo my day is going very Breezey, I hope you're having a Win-go of a day

Nah he drops a non chucking efficient 40 in a win and everybody will love him again. This Melo drama/ Fire the coach/ Fire the GM/ Tank the season...blah blah blah happens every year. It's getting old.
Team goes on a win streak however, and KP is suddenly a superstar (which he is by far not), Melo is a savior, Rose is back, and they all should make the all star team, make a run at Cleveland blah blah blah.
So are you saying that he's going to drop 40 tomorrow or is that strictly hypothetical?
Also no that's not what would happen. Melo fans will say "I never doubted the boy!!" Melo haters will simply not post, and the logical Knicks fan will say "Crap. Hopefully we lose the next 10 in a row."
