He wasn't just dominant for a short run, he was dominant for most of the game against the Blazers. He was a great pick up and looked like a top guy last night. He is only 22 so I don't think his future is set but I had a bad case of buyers remorse last night. I'm tired,I'm tired, I'm so tired right now......Kristaps Porzingis 1/3/18

![]() They lost because Gallo doesn't have it in him to demand the ball and take over. It's just not there. To me, you have it, or you don't. He'll never be consistant at putting anyone on his shoulders. Wilson Chandler is actually a more consistant player.

![]() When Gallo shows how inconsistent he is in Denver it will be because "Smith won't pass him the ball" or "Affalo is stingy" or "Coach Karl isn't using him correctly" etc. In the end, Gallo is a Kucok type of player. Can hit big shots, has length, can drive, play a lil D here and there.....but in the end, he STILL needs a Jordan to play with. At least a Pippen.

He's put up big nubmers in the past for the Knicks only to follow it up with a sub par game. If he becomes a consitsant 20+ PPG guy I'll be happy for him but he still won't be close to Melo. What it means is that Melo is one of the best players in the NBA. Even if Gallo turns into a 20PPG player he won't be an elite talent. I think he'll be a solid player in the long term but will not be a franchise player. He'll be a good supporting player. I would have liked for the Knicks to have kept him but it is what it is. He'll be a nice player, nothing more. He never had a chance with the Knicks? Wasn't he a starter for 2 years? Blue & Orange 4 Life!

In OT he was asking for it but good old Felton did his Dudu impersonation again. He even posted up a couple of times in OT but did not see the ball. The ESPN announcers questioned this and was wondering why Gallo did not touch the ball. |

![]() Yeah, I saw him ask for it. Role players ask. True stars demand. Don't clear out. Dominate the space. Want it. Ultimately get it. We have three players that understand that on our current roster. Good luck to Denver with that.

![]() One game. ONE FREAKING GAME against the Blazers. Like we NEVER saw a great game from Gallo before? But tell me how did he do the game before?
Come on, people! Gallo could have a solid career as he definitely has talent, but you are inducting him to the Hall of Fame because you didn't like the Melo Trade! Let's see what George Karl can get out of Gallo before we do that, shall we? Because after a great game, usually came a disappearing act from Gallo. We'll see what happens. By the way, while we give Karl and Gallo time to see what they become, lets GIVE A FREAKING TIME TO MELO TO GET USED TO HIS NEW TEAM! Melo has actually a better history to back him up! You mad we gave a lot for him? Well, such is life! We will have a chance to surround Melo and Amare with enough talent to be more than the fun team we lost in a trade, but actually contend for a championship, something that has always been the dream of us as fans!

![]() If you would have said he dominated "when it counted" I'd say you have a point.
