Yea, this thread does deserve to be derailed. Keep it going.

A player protecting himself and is able to score from any where on the court is somehow a bad thing? Yes please keep it going.

:laugh: @ this selective nonsense

Hoopdata - NBA Player Shot Locations

The only other non-center that averages more shots at the rim than Melo this year is Lebron. The problem isn't him being aggressive, the problem is he misses too many layups. Some of it being he's gets hacked w/ no calls, other times he's just missing point blank opportunities.

:laugh: Melo doesn't like contact now

I'm done posting in this shytty ass thread

So this tells you Melo doesn't like contact..............

Of course like a ton of players in the NBA dude falls in love with his jumper sometimes to much, but to say he hates contact is a fukking lie and nonsense.

You got 10 years worth of data, 10 years worth of nikkas saying Melo a beast in the post, 10 years of players saying Melo strong as hell in the post, 10 years of coaches and analysts saying Melo a bully in the post and he loves the contact



You made a dumb ass statement, it is what it is, take your L and keep it moving

Melo shoots a ton and is inefficient at close range....no shyt.

what actually proves Melo enjoys contact? Why is he such a poor finisher at the rim? The rib pads arent absurd? Getting hit in the eye and getting a tech wasnt absurd? Melo doesnt enjoy getting touched...he complains a ton after non calls.

Arod was always going to be hated because jeter never embraced him :leostare: the comparison is silly other team players /the fans were killing arod in the media while only posada and mo defended him . Torre and jeter treated him like a pariah.
Unless melo shyts the bed he would never get the arod hate . No other athlete outside maybe Eli in the beginning of his career would get hated like that .
And no hate I don't know any real Knicks fan that thinks like that about melo you definitely reaching with the bron thing . Melo gets some hate for the trade but ironically he should risk taking less money in a lockout year yet lin is ok to be money grubbing ? You realize in NYC he could of made the money back

Dude is always trying to tell other New York fans what New Yorkers think just like his claim that everyone hated the Yankees last year and now telling Knicks fans how other Knicks fans feel about Melo. I also do not see the Melo/A-rod compairson.

He attacks the rim more than any other perimeter player besides bron.

He's always in the top 5-10 in free throws attempted

A person with common sense would come to the conclusion that he likes initiating contact & doesnt like when he doesnt get calls

A person such as yourself would come to conclusion that he shoots jumpers because he's scared of getting hit.
