You can not build a contender around a one dimensional player. he's too streaky of a scorer and he just isn't good at anything else on the court. he's not a leader either. How can he just fizzle out in the 4th like he has the past 2 games. his teammates bailed him out against the Celtics and now is the time for him to step it up.

Tyson is a leader and an all Nba defender plus dudes got a ring already. We seen what happened to Dallas as soon as he left. Melo is a scorer he just got the scoring title but thats all he good for. You can make his points up but it's alot harder to find really good defense.

Melo just isn't someone you can build a legitimate championship contender around.

It's not 'hatin' on Melo either but just stating who he is as a player.

I predicted his time in NY is going to mirror 'Starbury's' career more so than Ewing's (or Bernard King's), lots of expectations ending in unfulfilled potential.

2 1st rd exits

and

a seemingly embarrassing semifinals exit currently

Nah, not even close.

Ewing led teams were at least getting out of the 2nd round and made it to a couple of ECFs. Also, Ewing got to 2 finals, played in one...

I believe this past season will turn out to be Melo's and the knicks' best season in his tenure because several teams in the east are going to be better (than them) next season...

streaky ass JR Smith, they're starting Kenyon Martin who was almost out the league, that team is way too reliant on too many has beens and never was's to go anywhere. It's a miracle they got this far.

You can't build a team around him and win a chip. GOAT told him to his face he doesn't even try on defense. However, he's an all-star that never misses the playoffs.

"root for everybody black haters say that's crazy, wow..."

Are you saying that Melo is the 31st best player in the league?

His ranking in the league is irrelevant right now. Melo can get you to the playoffs with his scoring. However, that's all he does. He's not known for his defense. He's not known for setting up teammates. His 1.7 apg proves this statement. Teams focus on stopping him in the playoffs and he refuses to set up his teammates. This would make the game harder for the opposing team. If Kobe can facilitate so can Melo.

Melo's not a leader. Your best player isn't always a leader. However, he was compared to Lebron who is one of the best leaders in the league.

This isn't a knock on Melo because there are arguably 10 franchise players in the league. Melo ain't one of them. However, he's one of the league's best scoters and a perennial all-star.

"root for everybody black haters say that's crazy, wow..."

Then a team built around Melo can win a chip. It just has to be the right team.

dirk got knocked out by an 8 seed. lol

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

bigger, longer, better shooter, much more efficient scorer, better passer, better rebounder, more willing defender, better teammate, bettter team results, better playoff performer, better conditioned, more accolades, etc.

people say you could never win a chip with melo.

hence the comparison.

lol @ more willing defender aka poorer defender btw.

that's just general retardation
you don't even have to go there in order to honestly say that up until this point Melo's career has been a complete and utter DISAPPOINTMENT

~~~~~~

and people saying that about lebron only prove my point.

Thanks.

In fact I repeatedly said it's a question of when, not if.

But keep on making shit up.

Should Scott Brooks be fired btw?

17x NBA Champions

even before Dirk won a chip he had won more playoff series in one postseason than Melo has in ten years.

only what he's done in a knick uniform.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

dirk was always a better player than melo, a better scorer, a better rebounder, better within the framework of an offense, etc.

i dont think anyone could really question that he could win a title after 2006, although people managed to. any time you come within two games, that's a feather in your cap, not an indictment.

of course people didnt learn from that even after he won. they said the same thing about james coming two games short. lol.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

We lose to Indiana the way we have been and this is the 1st year I look at melo like he came up shorter than he should have.

As for the dirk comparison's, you are agreeing with my overall point and the Lebron part only reinforces that idea.

he's not a good defender ... but he sure tries hard. come on fam. this is just hating Melo for the sake of hating.

what's next? "dude's only averaging 9 pts a game, but he's a very willing shot taker."


HAHAHAHAHA

actually makes him a better defender, since Melo has yet to do the same in his entire career.

The point is, Dirk in his prime was better than Melo at absolutely everything & has the numbers/accolades/team-accomplishments that prove that too.

Does that make sense to you yet?

Its called calling it like it is. Jr has always been streaky with incredible highs and incredible lows and Chandler is a limited offensive player but a great defender. He got outplayed by Hibbert and KG...what should knick fans be saying? lol

He's verry uhfishent, best player in histree of all times.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

Melo is out there by himself, or that there is no team around him.. or the knicks couldn't contend because the lack of a supporting cast.

now that they get outplayed by a team that is coached better and have more solidified roles for its talent..

now its "lol @ the second option being jr smith" tyson chandler so limited... nobody mentioning felton or shump

Lets call a spade a spade.. the knicks got talent. its a talented roster. Mike Woodson looking suspect, and they have ZERO leadership.

How is your team on a supreme scoring slump, but you got niggas like Copeland on the bench?

Yall been riding with that roster all the way to the number 2 seed, atlantic division titles..sixth man of the year...first team all defense

dont back out on niggas now because they not shaq and kobe. They should be winning this series but aint.

Melo hasn't been stellar but 26ppg (on 40% shooting), 8.5rpg isn't exactly terrible. Indiana is a very good defensive team that has made Melo less efficient. However, less efficient isn't the same as non-existence which is what everyone other than Felton has been for the majority of this series. When you add in the rebounding advantage for Indy you get a 3-1 series lead for the Pacers.

Melo hasn't been spectacular but he's hardly the main issue in this series. Other guys got score, rebound and defend.
