What team has won with just one offensively elite player and a bunch of mostly crap. Name one team...ever.
Hint: I'll save you the effort. The answer is never.
I know, I know...but why can't he be LeBron James right?

The knicks screwed up putting talent around him, sure. The melo trade drained all of our assets to get another star, was terrible. Using the amnesty on Chauncey to get Tyson instead of waiting a year for Cp3. Both of those were mistakes.
But melo did his fair share to contribute to the losing culture and era he played in. Not adapting his game to fit the best style of the team. Not adapting to the new era of ball movement. Never giving any effort on defense. Getting coaches fired. Deliberately sabotouging a team president and trying to turn the locker room on him. Everyone had a role to play but melo could have made this whole situation a lot better. He has no one to blame but himself for the way he is going out
Name one coach he got fired. FIRED. Not quit. FIRED.
Trading a pick for Bargs? All good right?
The president threw him under the bus, not the other way around.
You want to come at his play, fair game. But you are lying about a whole lot and ignoring so much just to scapegoat the one guy who brought anything of relevance, no matter how minor, to this franchise in a decade plus.
