Loved Mark as a Knick but I wanted to jump through my tv and strangle dude when he torched us and started flying around the court like a helicopter....

But, its Gallo ! The Rooster! How can a knick fan not cheer? For him?

Seriously tho, when he missed that layup and then a few plays later laid and egg at the free throw line, after the announcers said he was 89% from the free throw, I was soo hoping for overtime. Too bad we forgot how much better we are when we play like we did in the first half and went to ISO' s to finish the game with

kinda like Melo winning playoff games?

hahaha... just enjoying the drama. Im sure it will work itself out

I liked him when he was here, but his inconsistency used to annoy me too- he'd have these 30+ point games, then follow them up with 4 or 5 disappearing acts.

17 to 18 points on 11 or 12 shots (1.50 Points Per Shot) is much better than 26 pts on 21 shots (1.21 PPS). Gallo could average far more points if he wanted to be a chucker like Melobury.

It doesn't hurt when you also have not 1 but 2 classic pg's to get you some open looks and on top of that, an inovative coach....

BTW

Gallo career FG% 43%
Anthony FG% 46%

How about we chill with the small sample sizes...

If you were honnest, you'd remember that it was exaclty what he was doing with us before trade, scoring an honnest amount points on very few shots.

He's not a superstar but a crazily efficient ball player. Dening his qualities won't ever make the trade better.

I didn't buy that excuse when he was here- yes he isn't selfish player, but some games he made no effort at all to assert himself, and it used to annoy me- he also lost confidence easily too. He wasn't the god-like perfect player people are making out.

Who the heck is making him a godlike player?

WHO?

Guys, being bitter about that ****ty trade is making you shoot in all directions hoping to score a kill.

Gallo will never be a superstar. Melo is a much better 1v1 scorer with no doubt.
Gallo is just a consumate euro style team player, and it's true he's sometimes not aggressive enough, maybe it will change, maybe not.

But that doesn't change anything to the fact that the trade was stupid and we got raped.
This team is poorly constructed as such and is now in cap hell.

How is it related in anyway to Gallo and his supposed godlike play?

Stop making sense. These people can't handle it.

Nobody seems to remember how sucky the Knicks were right before the trade. Stat was tiring out and everyone else was just throwing up bricks. And I'd like to see Gallinari's stats for the next game; I wouldn't be surprised if it's a classic 2/8 5reb 3assist type letdown game

They were playing horrible - of course blamed here as "due to the trade talk" they could not focus
