probably not. I'm scanning the box score and they have 2 starters scoreless and 10 points off the bench. But Knick fans were so damn obnoxious during the regular season that they gonna have to get this work anyway

and they gon get that work

This season: no. It plays out kinda like it has pretty much every other year of his career, but this isn't on Melo.

And this is coming from me.

tre you my nig, but c'mon breh. Knicks out there gettin dominated against a team ALOTTA folks said NY was better than. This one is on the fat one. Pacers basically said to Melo "the way you play will not beat us 4 outta 7." They're content to let Melo shoot 30-35 times b/c he's only making 10 of those shots anyway.

No excuses for this potential series loss breh. Knicks fans got no more excuses for this bullshyt

SINY!!
All season Knicks fans and other idiots have been putting Carmelo in a category that he had no business being in. I wouldn't say its his fault. Carmelo is just not that good of a player.

Agreed

-supposedly hes a great scorer, but can't do it efficiently
-gets credit for "effort" but in reality is a below-average defender
-lacks the offensive awareness it takes to be a play maker for his teammates
-doesn't come off as a "leader" type


With the leadership intangible......you all know, and I know....Tyson Chandler is the "leader" of this ball club which is also why I have no problem with anything he said about Game 3. Dude was right on the money, and Melo's reaction to those comments cements those thoughts even further.

Is he shooting great? No. Is he playing great D? No. But right now he's the only one being productive. If JR Smith was making shots Melo wouldn't need to take 35 shots and if Melo was taking shots away from productive players, that's a problem, but that's not the case.

He doesn't deserve all the shyt he gets mainly because he's not as good as a player as the media hypes him up to be in the first place. He's not top 5. He's more like bottom 10 or even 10-15 type player. And for that type of player he's fine and plays up to his level consistently. That 40 point melo is just him having an occasional amazing night.

I love how n!ggas praise Melo, but don't complain about this n!gga defense or how he stands around on offense when he doesn't have the ball.

U n!ggas knew beginning of the season the knicks didn't have a low post player and all they can do his shoot jump shots, but didn't complain when they beat a weak azz celtics team in the first round.

melo never winning a title

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
The Pacers look like the better team and have a player that can negate/limit what Melo does offensively, outside of morphing into a top 5 playmaker I don't think there's anything more he could do against them. The Pacers are built perfectly to handle a team like the Knicks, I don't blame Melo, that would be stupid. Even if he was hitting 50% of his shots they'd still be losing.

The way I watch basketball is that the best player gets all the hate or all the praise, fair or unfair. In reality, this Knicks team AT BEST had a second round ceiling, but I thought if Melo was this real superstar he'd:

A. Raise his game to offset his teammates deficiencies
B. Change his game to complement his team

nikka ain't doin shyt but chuckin shots like fukk it. It's like he doesn't even realize he's playing into Indy's hands. And his inefficient scoring ain't productive breh breh. Dude does NOTHING to improve his teammates or make his team better. This series loss is on him

Eh, a lot of his teammates are getting looks, you got a dude like Jason Kidd out there that half the coli could do what he's doing now. I don't see anyone making those dudes around him better, they are what they are.
