Is that your first and only post of this thread??

Melo has literally gone 1 on 1 all night and shot the ball poorly. It's undisputable. He's not a good franchise player for a team that wants to win games. He'd be a great 2nd option though.

Melo has gone 1 on 1 because the Knicks offense is a joke. Melo has played within the offense all year, which is why we're the 11th seed in the East. The offense is the problem, not Melo.

You keep on believing that!

Oh, you think Melo is the reason the Knicks are the 11th seed?

I Do!
Do u think D.Wade is the reason the Heat are a 4th seeded team?

No I think the answer in both cases is talent and coaching. Wade is having one of his worst seasons and Bosh is out for the year. The Heat are extremely well coached.

FINAL
NYK 81 MIA 98

Yeah that gets under my skin hearing that crap. I have a temper so if i was at a game and there was Heat fans around me chanting that crap it wouldn't be good.

Meanwhile, Grant played 11 minutes (all 1st half), D Will played 12, KP played only 22 and KOQ got a DNP and we lost the game wire to wire.

Our young players are not going to get any better riding the pine when the playoffs are laughable at this point. Wizards beat Cleveland tonight and Detroit also won; there's no way we are surpassing these teams who are clearly better.

can't decide what made me more sick tonight, the stupid triangle or melo's horrible play.

WTF do you know about the Triangle?

not much, perhaps you can post some pictures and some more predictions about how great Grant aka mike conley will be and how we are winning 50 games this season?

Some people are smart enough to know when their sh1t aint lookin too hot and its time to hush up.

That's ok cuz it's easy to be negative all the time so you can act like a genius when in fact you don't know **** about basketball. Any time you wanna really go in depth on a topic lets go.

You sound like a guy that isn't here for the Knicks but just to post annoying BS jokes. What did you contribute to this thread but a couple of negative lame ass posts.

It'd also help Melo a ton if he got a guard to do much of what we ask him to do in the screen/roll play. To be the point. We simply lack a guard that can create offense for us. Some are piling on the Triangle, but without the Triangle this team would be even worse. They would be relying on Melo 1 on 1, Jose creating and guards not talented enough to create shots, to create shots on a nightly basis. Sure the stats of the guards would be better, but they wouldn't be playing at a high level.

What this team desperately needs is a guard that can control the ball and take it away from relying heavily on Melo as the 1st option/high usage user, and also to rely less on the Triangle to create shots for the offense. Within that if we get Porzingis to improve his game on offense over the summer, we'll be much better.

I'm not big on giving Conley 20 million a year, but at this point that is what we have to do. The Knicks need a guard that can do all what I mentioned badly. They just can't be fairly evaluated without. Every good team in the league either has a good point guard (or a great one) or a couple of guards that can share the roles of lead playmakers. We got Melo doing that and no one else really.

You can't get past our most glaring need on this roster: a point guard. It starts and ends there.
