Uh he was past his prime, just above avg. in his Knick career. Did he ever make an All Star team as a Knick?

Stat was a legit MVP candidate his first year with the Knicks. That first half of the 2010-11 squad with him, Felton, Gallo and Chandler was slept on. Knicks could've really made some noise if they waited til the season was over for Melo's contract to expire and then added him as a free agent to the squad they already had. But they jumped the gun and traded half of their depth for him.

Don't give me that shyt, everyone predicted the Bulls to have a better record then they currently have. I'd rather have Robin Lopez and Taj then Noah or Oquinn, plus your "superstar" Butler is a so called top 10 player, him and Wade are 1 game below 500. So yes I can bring Butler in this. So called Superstars can't win with good rosters, but Melo with a shytty team is supposed to carry a team on his back in his 13th season.

Taj is a decent bench player who wouldnt start on a contending team. Lopez is ok but theres a reason why he gets traded every other year...he's replacement value

All our young players are terrible

KP in spite of his slump is damn near close to being an Allstar status already
OQuinn is actually decent

Hernangonez and Mindaskas are promising young players. Rose is still putting up decent numbers. Jennings is a decent backup

Learn tha game, casual

I HATE this narrative. Felton is a certified bum, Gallo and Chandler have missed major time do to injury and when they play the Nuggets aren't anywhere close to good. And Amare besides that first year was also injured all the time.

I didn't say he was bust. But he hasn't improved since last year. I would love to see dude be more aggressive & call for the ball ESPECIALLY when he has the mismatch.

And I could careless about having other Knicks fans respect.

He does call for the ball problem is Rose, Melo, Jennings don't know how to get it to him. Not his fault. The personnel surrounding him is horrible

Unfortunately he was injury prone, but even he was getting hate. I'll always rock with dude, cause he legit wanted to play here
i would legit want to play here too when the only team that would offer me 100 mill uninsured was in new york.....when my knees were a ticking time bomb.
if the milwaukee offered him the same deal he'd be happy about it too

kinda hard to be aggressive when rose and melo take turns passing to just each other in the last 5 minutes of games.

word a legit mvp candidate...when that team was barely a 500 team at all star break....then he deteriorated. gallinari and chandler havent developed into any significant player since then.









it's like no one has objectivity when they view anything on the knicks. NONE.

I've been telling people this for years. Knicks were idiots to trade for Melo when he would've went there anyway

Don't get me twisted with that casual bullshyt.

Like you said, they are promising young talent. They are not winning shyt this yr or another yr or so.

If Taj or Robin was on our team, they would be our starting Center, they better than Noah and Oquinn and Hernangomez (still young).

KP is a borderline Allstar player, he is in a slump. He will play through it, but isn't Butler supposed to be better than him? and according to people on Coli, Wade is still better than Melo at this point in their careers.

But completely ignore my statement about the Bulls being projected to have a much better record than they currently have.
