Magic PG: So Let Me Get This Straight...

[Oscirus]

So who fell off faster Melo or Revis?

[whocares1]

Same ole Melo, but he drops 40 tomorrow and everybody loves him again.

Before or after he lets the other team score on him with ease and we lose in a nice blow out fashion? Chucking to get your 40 and playing putrid defence isn't going to get us to the playoffs.

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."

[Johnny Hoops]

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.

[CJackson]

Melo did click with Fisher for whatever reason.

Because he knew he could run right over his fake stoic/mute *ss?

[thebuzzardman]

So who fell off faster Melo or Revis?

Revis

Melo's been on this path for a 2+ seasons.

Revis did it as soon as the ink was dry on this season's contract

[Johnny Hoops]

Same ole Melo, but he drops 40 tomorrow and everybody loves him again.

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.

Melo. Revis Island got destroyed by AJ Green and couldnt recover, its a fair excuse

[Johnny Hoops]

In terms of D'Antoni I will say 99% of our board would have pants at ankles if Mike was here and we were playing like Houston is playing. That is somewhat impossible given we are stuck with Me7o and Rockets have Harden.

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.

[dakomish23]

Funny thing is people bash Melo for the same reason they want to apologize for Mike. Apparently Melo wants to win on his own terms with his own style of play and that makes him the bad guy but, MDA wants to do the same thing and we should feel bad for him? FOH. that's nonsense and hypocritical to say the least.

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.

[FutureKnicksGM]

KP is pretty good at defense. He just looks bad sometimes because he has to cover for Melo.

Rolo stay contesting. Legit defensive anchor for us last year.

[god shammgod]

if we tank i'm gonna have to watch college ball again. god damn you capn'o. i hate you all.

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?

[Capn'O]

if we tank i'm gonna have to watch college ball again. god damn you capn'o. i hate you all.

Nah. I hate that **** too. Worse, we're not even gonna be able to watch the really good prospects either this time.

[CJackson]

You must be a real joy to be with at the Rucker or Dyckman.

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

[Capn'O]

Oooh - maybe we can just assume that they'll draft the Euro guy - Nkississippi or whatever - so we can watch some Euro ball.
