This is the shyt Melo should have thought about when he forced his way to NY. If he really wanted to compete he would have signed there that offseason instead of the Knicks having to give up valuable assets. Gallinari would have fit in well with him to me and even if he came off the bench him and Smith would have created problems for the second units of other teams. He could be sending a subliminal message to the Knicks that he wants Chandler traded for more offensive help. But Tyson is the only reason why they are a halfway decent defensive team so that would be dumb of them to do that.

:wow: yall nikkaz really are :cape: hard for Melo. :ohhh:

nikkaz shyt on Bean Da Gawd all the type for being a gunner, but at least he will pass the ball more than once a game.

I never understood that either. Kobe is a shooting guard, it's not his place to be handing out assists like a pg. That's not his game nor is it Melo's game.

@AVXL your on ignore breh.

The melo trade or him not "waiting" till the summer isn't the biggest reason the Knicks don't have cap flexibility. It was the decision to amnesty Chauncey and then sign tyson to that big deal

@ the bolded: Name 2. Realistically. :ld:

I'm not comfortable with JR as our full time #2 either but it was what it was. His problem was he was trying to break out of the slump with jumpers. He abandoned what he did to close out the regular season by mixing his game up. He needed some layups, dunks, and floaters. He just needed to see the ball go thru the basket. He kept waiting on the J to fall.

:ld:

@Trip still waiting on the identities of the plentiful scorers we have after JR my dude.......

Why is this thread still Up?? We just went through this last year when everyone was basketball experts and saying how we were finished before the year began. We lost in the second round and yet got hawk fans talking like they are patriots fans or something and other teams running in to tell us how trash we are :mindblown: how about you direct your hate towards say the nuggets or clippers who both flopped in the first round or the nets .
As long as melo is there next year with a slightly improved squad the Knicks should win around 50 games :manny: that's what melo led teams usually do . All this wait for rose, rondo , granger to return so we can fall off talk is comical. There are still enough other games on the Knicks schedule to win 50+ games

Neither was MJ but before he started winning that's what Jordan got riped for. But at least Jordan didnt take bad shot like Kobe.
Allen Iverson was the same way and got ripped for it too but was just Kobe without the height.
Then came Lebron and what do we rip him for? Passing the ball

Sometimes i swear "sports fans" are worst than women watching soaps

You know I got no issues wit y'all but you know why the Knicks get more hate than the Nuggets, Clippers, or Nets. Just compare the season thread sizes and that should give you the answer.

The question is how will you "slightly improve" with the lack of flexibility you have? Guys like Kidd, Camby, Martin are a year older so you cant mark them down to contribute the same or even more than this season with no doubt.

Chandler needs to show he can stay healthy and get back to himself, Amare is, well Amare. You need Prigioni back, Jr looks like he's back but what JR will you get? And Felton was a rollercoaster in the playoffs. Novak, well who knows.

But Melo will be Melo, and you could see more growth with Shump and Copeland (if he comes back).

It's entirely possible you guys can win 50+ again, but I don't think you can just write off the fact that dropping back into that 45 win group isn't a possibility.
