I believe Melo I think that he will make sacrifices and wants to win badly especially after his buddy Lebron won. However you cant blame people who feel taht Melo needs to prove it on the court first because he does. I like melo and feel that he will have his best year BUT he still has to prove it

These are the same people who thinks Gallo doesn't flops..

I agree some people seem to complain too much but some people still make valid points. I respect you because you are loyal to your favorite player as everybody should be. I think Melo will have one of his best seasonsw this year just like lebron did last year

Who is my favorite player?

he said he's willing to do whatever it takes to win and you still **** on him

Just got done laying some pipe thank you.

Melo confirmed what has been complained about since he arrived.

He has been a bit egocentric.

And if he changes to have a more rounded game that translates to wins, so much the better!

Btw, this forum has been hi jacked by a certain type of poster these days. If I would have come to UK for the first time NOW instead of years ago I'm sure it would have ended up being just a drive by and keep it moving kind of thing.

Holfresh, good post but you opened the flood gates for the usual anti-Melo-Jerk circle to commence...Its beyond funny how its the usual suspects that love Gallo/Hate Melo....What ever happened to objectivity?

Silly...I think u have had enough time to assess Melo's game to realize he is a rhythm shooter or player...No sure MDA understood that either so nothing personal...Melo shoots himself into rhythm...He is not a consistently hot shooter..He is extremely streaky...Not like JR who comes and goes...Melo needs shots and can shoot himself into most games, not all, most...He needs touches period..It would be great if he could stand in a corner and just knock down jumpers, but he just isn't that dude no matter how much we whine about it...To a lessor extent, LeBron is that way too..He too takes some crazy shots at times but when he starts knocking them down it's over...

you pretty much explained why no team should ever, ever be built around him.....

What he said is actually applicable to all the top scorers in the league except Durant who is ridiculously efficient. Also, Melo's overall fg%, fg% from mid-range and fg% in the paint is superior to the two players you constantly pine and whine over (Gallo and Lin). Go figure.

actually not, the top scorers in the league, guys like lebron, wade, are also very efficient.... so is dirk, so it is not applicable..

and here you go again, it is sad when all you can do is base your defense using gallo and lin.... so now you are setting melo standards by guys you obviously feel are inferior.. typical melo lovers mentality.. no wonder why these discussions go nowhere.. LOL....

actually I pine and whined over lebron...... so now what?

I can agree with LeBron, Wade, Dirk and Durant. I will also state that people killed LeBron and Dirk, in the same manner you kill Melo, for YEARS AND YEARS.

I bring up Gallo and Lin to point out your hypocrisy. You kill Melo for things while ignoring all the flaws of Gallo and Lin. If you applied your harsh and warped criticism to all players equally then I would not need to point out your agenda driven hypocrisy.
