Melo Thread #????? - Update PG 58 - 4-way scenarios explored (In Georgia?)

Just a bunch of Mf's writing negative articles about the knicks. I refuse to read them. Knicks are in a pretty good position with young players with potential. F them.

Mf's get off writing negative articles about the knicks. Hardaway contract this and that. Look around the league there are much worst deals. Gallo getting what 21 a year? James Johnson 15 a year. Get off the knicks D. God I hope we play some good basketball so these writers can go back in their holes like the 50 win season.

Frank, Baker
Lee, THJ, Dotson
Harkless, LT, Kuz
KP, KOQ
Willy, Noah

Good mix of vets and a lot of young guys. Imperative to let Frank & Baker run the show for the tank.

Harkless was an average defender and inconsistent offensive player. If the Knicks are going to be forced to take Meyers Leonard they should be getting instead either Al Farouq Aminu or Ed Davis. Shorter contracts, better defensive players.

I think it probably will get announced tonight after the all-star game (or at least leaks of whats involved). Wed/Thur are a dead sports day. It will dominate the news.

I def don't think they would want to announce it today right before the MLB all-star game.

I have my straps ready. It's already latched onto my chair. That way when they announce it I won't be falling on the floor.

All the stats suggest Harkless was a really good defender last year. I would take Harkless hands down as an asset ove the other two. He's younger and aligns with our core more.

Gives Melo more time to find a ghostwriter to pen his Player's Tribune goodbye letter. I'm interested in seeing if he makes any under the radar digs at Dolan and Phil...

Post the stats, b.

He held his opponent to 5% below there normal field goal % average which is elite defense. He also average a steal and block per game with his 7 foot wingspan he is very disruptive. 24 years old, good athlete, long wingspan, solid frame and effort/instincts.

He outside of Aminu are really the only two that even play defense on the Blazers. He usually got matched up with the best offensive player too which says a lot about the FG% against #'s.

https://sports.yahoo.com/report-knicks-moving-toward-keeping-132214809.html

And here lies the problem with this franchise all along. The inability to actually have someone that is qualified run the front office. Haven't had it since Dave Checketts was here which, coincidentally, was the last time the Knicks were really of any impact in the playoffs.

Let me guess, the dialogue went something like this:

Dolan: So...Steve...have you found anyone to take the President position yet?
Mills: No, Jim, there's absolute nothing out there. You know what Griffin said the first thing he would do is? Buy Carmelo Anthony out.
Dolan: Really?
Mills: Yeah, of course, he told me himself.
Dolan: But I was there at the dinner with him and I don't think I heard him say that.
Mills: He did, he said it in Pig Latin.
Dolan: Oh, ok, you know me, I was never good at those tricky dickey foreign languages.
Mills: Yeah...but you're great at everything else Jim. My mentor. My idol.
Dolan: Gee thanks Steve. You know what? You want to be the President?

Yeah, pretty much sums up the last decade and a half.
