You bench him till he wants "it" :D

So frustrating when this team shows promise and then this happens. It's like regardless of who coaches, plays, gm etc... :banghead:

Carmelo doesn't care about winning.

He's about that money and being in all-star games. :lol:

He goes so hard for all star games. It's starting to really show he type of guy he is. I'm done. He tried now gtfo. Doesn't pass doesn't play D. Would be nice if he shoots a high percentage but he doesn't have it anymore. Not a leader not a competitor.

Do the Clippers have anything good? Since we aren't getting Love and we aren't getting Blake or Jordan. What else do the Clippers have?

We are what the Clippers were for 30 years before Chris Paul came in.

Shout out to:

* Kidd
* KMart
* Kurt
* Sheed
* Camby

Those dudes were truly underappreciated while they were here together. Melo got the lion's share of the credit. Yet time has proven they were the true reason for our only winning season (54 W's) in well over a decade.

That's also when Shumpert was a damn good role player.

Their can be too many 1 v 1 players on a team. We have that problem. No one is committing to move the ball and no one is committing to guarding their man.

Time to blow it up. I'm hoping Melo just goes to another team. We won't be upset man. Just go! You tried


I already knew the team lost it after we lost to the Hawks. Which is why I started the Frank Ntikilina countdown after that particular game. The team finally realized they sucked and then mailed it in during our "must-win" vs. the Pelicans.

Just like I knew Joakim was done early on, but people kept asking me if I watched the Chicago or Memphis games. Ain't nobody bringing up those games anymore :D

2) We can't possibly have performed as bad or worse than Minnesota or Portland. Look at our record! We're never going to lose enough games to get deep in the lottery anyway, so let's just stop with the tanking nonsense.

Well, if you guys haven't woken up after tonight's game, it means you got stuck in a dream within a dream, and I can no longer help you. Or maybe you're stuck in f*cking limbo. If you have woken up, then that means reality slapped you right in the goddamn ugly face and you finally get that this team is sh*t, the coach is sh*t, and Phil is sh*t.

Home and home vs. the Bucks, we are going to get RUN OFF THE FLOOR. When Parker blows by him for an explosive slam, Melo gonna be like: "Dam I used to be able to do dat."

Team isn't that bad. Rose looks good but he is basically Amar'e at PG.

Knicks need to move Noah. He sucks. His defense isn't cancelling his complete lack of offense.

A lot of time left in the season. Gonna see how January plays out. If it keeps going this route, it's time for the blitzkrieg.

Can't keep giving games away so you can play the guys you gave big money to this summer big minutes.

Or maybe that's what they want to do.

They def are not trying to win games with this rotation.
