Our biggest concerns with his health, was his knees, and that the least of his problems

I find it funny how ppl keep saying that Amare and Melo can't mesh and the real problem lies with him and chandler..

His knees can't be insured but currently the biggest problem seems to be his back. He is a freak athlete but athleticism fades. It would be nice if he could adjust his game. I agree about Tyson and Amare. It would probably be best for the Knicks if Amare was the back up 5 and the first big off the bench. I don't think that is happening so it will be interesting to see how things mesh.

I think its time for him to attempt one of those trick dunks.

The thing is he's still a huge part of this team.

Your right, when he came back from his brothers death, lin was looking for tyson more on the Pnr the Amare.

When we were letting melo run the point, Amare some how found himself out of his comfort mid range spot and look totally out of rythem.

when lin went down, tyson couldn't seem to get out of the damn way

After mike left, it became te melo show..

no excuses, just reasons..

So I think that we can all infer that Amare sux ass unless he is on a team that runs the pick and roll predominately. WONDERFUL! What a pity that he never worked on his arsenal so that he is not so one dimensional.

when that dimension gets you deep into the playoffs and has you as one of the league's best frontcourt scorers in the game you want to stick with what works.

I will take one dimensional if we are in the conference finals next year just fine.

Ah so if we revert to a one dimensional offense with our current roster we will probable be a perennial conference finals team, ay?

Since he was playing with the best PG at running the PNR of all time that means it should and must still work perfectly even without Nash.

But hey it worked with Felton for a bit when Amare flew out of the gates for his new team until he hit a brick wall.

Do you realize that his explosion has never been the same since the first half of last year? How about that his jump shot which was deadly is in Tahiti?

It's funny how you give him a pass for everything that he does. Hey he punch a glass thingy - so what you never got frustrated in your corp job and punched something? Well I am not a basketball player or a heart surgeon. Nobody cares if I tear up my hand and nobody is paying me 20 million a year to use them.

I guess that's why you have hated Melo so much. He takes away from Super AmarIO.

All that being said, I do think that Amare can benefit from a good PG since he can no longer create his own shot and has zero post game. So, if he comes in shape, does not punch anything, and has no family issues, we might get lucky.

I actually like Melo and Amare the exactly the same

take Melo's dick far enough out of your ear to listen to what I say and I will respond to your posts.

If Amare's balls were not blocking you eyes, you would see what everyone knows.

And, BuLL Sh1t you like them the same. You were ragging on Melo all year but not on Amare - who are you fooling? Nobody. You have been softer on Melo lately and thats sweet of you, probably makes it easier to defend Amare with this defense of "I (now) like them both the same and they both have their shortcomings. Well they are not the same at all. Melo can be selfish but is at the top of his game and unstoppable while anyone can stop amare and he heading towards the bottom of his game.

They will both be here next year and they must work better together if we have a chance at doing anything but Amare has to show that he is still viable and it all starts with that jumper which is quite baffling that its gone.

I think it all come back to his dead jumper. If thats on, everything else would have come.

how, when he was getting the ball in awkard places, coming off of screens like a guard, rushing shots.

No matter how good a shooter a persn is, if he has no rythem he's toast

While I am sure that no PG did not help him but his shot was way off anyway. Shots that were gimme's last year were just not falling - the same shots.

Amare and Melo have done nothing worth defending as Knicks. It's funny that you two are doing the exact same c*ck-sucking, just with different players.
