Marcus Morris takes shot at Carmelo's Defense...

[RayStats34]

Melo can obviously play good D when he wants to. I think you can say that about most All-Stars. It's just an issue of consistency.

But that's not the point. It's obvious that Marcus Morris is an offensive player. But you come in and basically insult probably the best offensive player in the NBA right now (and he can say it however way and people can try to spin it the bottom line is it's insulting still). Honestly...he was picked 14th in a poor draft (from a start talent standpoint). You'd think he was picked 1st overall or something. Just STFU and go about trying to prove yourself with some sort of dignity.

Marcus didnt insult his offense he insulted his defense....everybody knows melo can score

Oh I agree. It's a dick move. Hopefully Melo takes it personally and turns himself into a more consistent defender. As for Morris, if he keeps talking crap, it's up to him to back it up. Otherwise he's just another jerkoff who can talk the talk but can't walk the walk.

Carmelo doesn't not play better when motivated.

So what you are saying is that he does play better when motivated?

Good to know.

yeah hopefully melo takes it personally and works on his defense. I actually wish more players called him out on his defense- maybe it would motivate him.
