i won't be responding to future posts on this matter because the topic at hand is meant for trashing george karl and making fun of him.

So you're going to back out after we contradicted what u just said? Nice :lol:

you didn't contradict anything i said, you posted a quote of melo being coy and talking about how he doesn't hate KP so it's not true

and someone else used a former nba player as a source to counter me who also used a former nba player as a source.

All u did was post an article but didn't provide any quotes to support your claim. In the article you posted it said "But everyone wasn't a fan of him being the new star, so he didn't stay long". How is he talking about melo? He Oh yeah he isn't. Here's what he said right after.
Stoudemire told Anthony that he wasn’t taking any veiled shots at him when discussing his time with the New York Knicks on Sunday.

“I've never mentioned his name once. We're close friends, family,” Stoudemire told Miami reporters. “Our kids were born a couple months apart.

Y'all melo haters be delusional and never accept facts. Just pure BS.

Amare never even mentioned Melo, so i dont know how bNO is stating it as a fact. The journalist who wrote the article is speculating that it was Melo, and that speculation wasnt correct.

I always felt it was more Jr. Jr did say a comment about Lin's contract and he sounded very salty Lin received that type of contract.


even if that is true about jr. no player on the team is why lin wasn't re-signed.

there are only 2 possible reasons. 1 - dolan was angry about the deal he signed or 2 - they just didn't feel he was worth the money.
we don't know.

Back to Karl as one of the criers tried to hijack the thread with their agenda

There's a reason why so many guys call this guy a snake. It's one thing when a legend on the Mount Rushmore of coaching says something about a former player.

Get that money George. Nobody is going to care about your existence without the Melo drama

My memory of Denver Melo is pretty much what Karl says but why write about it now? I mean Karl survived cancer shouldn't he be doing more important things than tearing other people down?

melo didn't want to play with porzingis until he saw him play


Oh this is you staying out of the civil war? Literally lying and spreading propaganda. Feel free to show me where Amare and Melo have a bad relationship and PROOF that Melo made sure Lin wasn't re-signed.

How desperate you have become

:rofl2:


oh how the Narrative has changed. Now its Melo, not Dolan being blamed. OK Karl's ego belongs in the College ranks, which is why he can never get along with star players. He's even on record saying he prefers NOT to coach star players. Dude know a ton about basketball but, it too small minded for the NBA.

Yes very true.

Lin was still unproven at the time. He had a memorable run, but was exposed during the Miami game. Wasnt as effective after that game. D'Antoni quits after Knicks go on a long losing streak. Lin then gets injured and never plays again for the rest of the season.

I remember Woody kept saying the Knicks were going to match any Lin offer, the front office knew the kid had potential and could at least be a serviceable player. Hell the league even created a brand new rule that season in order for the Knicks to retain Lin. But no one was expecting the Rockets to give him that type of money, especially the $15 (?) million on that final year. It was definitely a tough offer to match since Lin was still essentially a rookie.

Karl is 100% right about JR Smith. I wanted to give him a fair shake in NY but when he started missing practice then showing up to games high as a kite...come on man, you're a professional. An entourage can be a player's biggest strength but also can be his weakness.

Melo played defense for Woody and Fisher and has at least given the effort for Jeff though he needs to tighten up but the entire team is bad on the end right now.

So how do Woody, Homewrecker and Hornacek get him to buy in and play within the team concept and play hard but Karl and D'Antoni have the issue?

It's called coaching and motivating. Karl not MDA motivate their players it's simple my way or the highway.

You have to keep Melo locked in on the court and he'll do whatever is necessary but when you allow him and not just him but other players to freelance then there's that disconnect.

Karl never looked in the mirror, MDA never looked in the mirror. How much defense did any of your teams play? I'll wait.

As for the remarks about Melo and K-Marts dad, Melo's dad is actually dead, that's just low and unnecessary.

This will lit a fuse in Melo's derriere and he will drop 50 in the next few games.

I think TNF is streamed on Twitter. I'm pretty sure most users on here have a Twitter account.
