Bernard carried us on his shoulders to game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Celtics with Bird, McHale and Parish. Melo never even sniffed that as a Knick. Please. I watched a lot of Bernard King. Melo can't hold his jock strap and I don't care what Melo's numbers are. He never had, nor will have, Bernard King's heart.

Sad but true. Another on bites the dust. Hoodfuqinwinked.


If I had the magic wand I would revert back the trade so we would have Jamal Murray to add to our core now

Yup. I literally received a warning because a mod didn't like my politics. Greenie personally attacks the entire board and skates on by. I have never met a woman speak like her. Makes me question if "she" is telling the truth there.



You just called me a sack of ****. Are you still posting? You're low key calling me a dude. I bet you will still be posting.

...but if I tell you to STFU it's a problem?

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.

Come on, man? Melo was good at several things but he had a lot of deficiencies as well. Let's not act like he was the poster child of franchise leader. A lot of us are/were high on KP because of his mentality coming in. You, as much as anyone, knows that NY respects the hustle and little things.

If KP is leading by example, doing the little things like standing up in the huddles, playing team ball, working his ass off, taking D seriously, etc., NY will always love him.

I like Melo, I really do. But when LeBron said "He's done so much for that organization," around the time that everyone was piling on Phil for being honest and saying time for Melo to go, I thought to myself, "What has he done?" He was definitely productive. He's good. But that doesn't mean he's done a lot.

It's not his fault, okay, but he didn't do a lot. We lost a ton of games. One 54 win season is nothing.

He got a lot of money and a NTC and we got a ton of L's. At the same time he produced better than any recent "Face" ... going back to Ewing. He didn't suck, at all. But his teams did.

He didn't unfortunately do a lot for us. We could've lost as much or maybe less without him.
