Asking Melo To Take A Paycut After This Past Season is Insulting

[Dwight Howard]

Really? They want dude to take less money to play with the mediocre roster they have. To play under one of the worst front offices in sports? After the season the Knick just had and the monstrous season Melo had they want him to take less? Thats just insulting to me.

Melo needs to abandon the titanic and join this #bullshyt in Chicago

hell yea. If he gon take a paycut might as well do it for a team with a great coach, system, and better roster

 

[RichYung]

Melo, need to go on over to Death Row.

It's not insulting when he's nearly 30.

 

[Dwight Howard]

It's not insulting when he's nearly 30. It's a huge risk for NY to pay him $100M or above.

his game isnt athleticism based, he'll be elite for another 3-4 years

Then they shouldn't be insulted when he goes to a team with a competent FO.

But is that wahat the market dictates for a max player like Melo. Unless you dont think Melo is a max player at 30 which is relatively still young.

 

[Montez]

If Melo wants a quality team why not take less?

You nikkas just like bytching about everything the Knicks do.

meant to say isn't that not what the market dictates for a max player like Melo.

 

[EducatedBrothaFromTheBank]

imagine telling a CEO of a major company to take a paycut, he'll tell you to go to hell

get your money black man

 

[Lord Beasley]

that "mediocre" squad shoulda been, at least, a 6 seed. the eastern conference is mediocre and noah should slap the shyt outta everyone on on that squad, up to and including the "possible signee" carmelo anthony.

That's possible but the injury bug can come out of no where.

I see both sides on this. NY has been trash for too long and they're the richest b-ball franchise, so if people don't trust them, that's understandable. On the other hand, bringing in Phil is the type of move that could bring a lot of regret if passed on.

I personally don't think anyone is a max player at 30 because of the risk of random injury. Aside from that, he's one of the few people I'd consider a max player at 30 because as @Dwight Howard pointed out, “his game isn't athleticism-based”.

Yeaah, but the owner is already clashing with Jackson and not allowing him to make some personnel moves. fukk that guy and fukk that team is what I'd be saying.
