The reason he gets disrespected is he plays for the Knicks. The reason the Knicks gets so much hate is the team owner Dolan has an antagonistic relationship with the media. The media returns the favor by shytting on everything NY Knicks.

They got younger and better defensive players and resigned the scoring champ and the 6th man but they are considered a 5th -7th seed. Melo plays for any other team and he'll jump right back into the top 5 players in the league debate on TV.

He's needs to play more efficiently. He should be averaging at least in the 44%-46% shooting percentage nightly not in the 30% or low 40% he's been doing lately otherwise he's overrated.

Saying the Heat, Bulls, Pacers and Nets are better is disrespect?

How exactly is he underrated? Only superstars receive the level of scrutiny that he is currently (and just started I might add) receiving. Nobody questions whether or not he deserves the max (even though he really doesn't if you wanna be all the way real) so again how exactly is he underrated?

i noticed Melo is the only marketable superstar not getting any commercials.

I see CP3, Blake, Wade, Bron, Durant, Kyrie all the time

surprised i don't see melo. I can understand why we don't see kobe because of his past or maybe someone like curry or wall because of where they play and the lack of fans. but melo has a clean image and a large fan base. shyt shaq still gets commercials.
he still signed with jordan and so forth.

no but shaq leaving the knicks out of the playoffs altogether is

the majority of fans and media OD on the melo/knicks criticism but that's the way it's gonna be until melo gets a ring. and that's very unlikely but crazier things have happened :manny:

edit- and lol at melo having a clean image :laugh:

Where are people underrating him, exactly?

His inability to consistently win in the playoffs?
bytching his way off a team, onto another team, only to repeat his previous performances, and then say some shyt like "I can't wait to be a FA!!!"?
The fact that he plays no defense?
That he settles for outside jumpers instead of going to the rim in the clutch?
That he turns regular 5v5 NBA basketball into IsoBall and tries to go 1-on-3 half the time like he's filming a shoe commercial?

Yeah, that's a lot of hate. But it comes with the territory of everybody saying stuff like "he can get you 30 and 10 any given night!!!"

Dude ain't underrated. He's an underachiever. Big difference.

Melo is covered in tattoos and looks lazy.
