Y'all always just throw out this trade Melo thing as though he doesn't have a no trade clause.

The Coli is a place where people LOVE to make an input without doing their homework. Melo isn't going anywhere unless he wants to go, and from all the signs, homie is content on trying to make it work here. And I don't understand why you can't build around Melo or KP.

I'm curious how you build around Carmelo considering the next couple of years of free agency.

if phil was interested in a complete rebuild, he shouldnt let melo walk last summer
he wasn't.
he resigned him and made promises to bring talent to the team
he hasnt done that yet
so yes, phil has gotta do something

zingis is not going anywhere
melo has about 3 years left at playing at a high level
mayb 2
build a team around him without sacrificing too much long term
don't give up any more draft picks
theres more than enough talent and trades out there to be made if phil does his job and falls back on his ego

if it doesn't work, you do do a complete rebuild with zingis in 2-3 years
if he's even worthy of it
if you think players are coming to the knicks to play with porzongis right now, you are on crack
it might be different 2 years from now, if he establishs himself as a star and has some playoff runs in him with melo and other talented players

we still have no idea i how good this kid zingis really is
lost in all the phil/melo drama is how poorly he has been playing as of late
hasnt had a double double in almost 2 months
i don't have to tell you how many rookies have had standout first years and did nothing afterwards

we can't jump to conclusions about him, or put too much pressure on him. hes struggled in games melo hasn't played
melo is here, players like him, phil should be using that to his advantage

Melo needs help.

He's trying to share the ball more.
He's putting more effort into his defensive game and rebounding.

The Knicks still struggle and often times Melo has to take over just to keep the team in the game.

Either get this guy some quality teammates or maybe deviate more from the triangle to allow his PGs to show their athleticism and create more openings.
The offense looks too rigid, the way they're currently playing.
You sound like you actually watch Knicks games. This thread is'nt really for you.
