What a idiot
When MDA was fired, Woodson also went on a crazy win streak (18-6?). Not saying Woodson is a great coach, but lets be realistic, he doesn't have much to work with either. Felton, JR and Shump have regressed badly. I'm on record as saying last years squad overachieved....This organization stinks from head to tail....
this post I agree with.. last years team did overachieve.. kidd got off to a great start.. as a team we were shooting the three ball at an unsustainable rate, JR smith was playing probably the best ball of his career, then we got a boost here and there from guys like sheed.... people keep looking at last years team and that team is done, we are not the same team, and that team overachieved... we don't have much talent now, no leadership, no cohesion.. what we are seeing now is the end result..
so wait... if last year's TEAM overachieved, why is it Melo's fault that we didnt beat the Pacers? I mean you said last year's Knick team was good... we had the 6th man of the year, the DPOY the year.. that Melo had the pieces to beat the Pacers but once again a Melo-team failed in the playoffs. But now your saying that team just isnt that good an overachieved... so once again its whatever truth best suits your agenda to crap on Melo is the truth of the day.TFK... why dont you tell our devoted readers why you got kicked off realgm? I mean its really an impressive feat to be banned from a site you used to moderate because you spam every thread with how much you hate the team's best player. Its really something to be proud of.
Fish why do you get so upset by his comments. Having different opinions makes for good conversations. I actually agree i think last year we overachieved a bit. Before last year i said 45 wins. I dont put all the blame on melo either. JR Smith realy destroyed his great year with his behavior/bad play in the playoffs and Tyson also was awful. However i think melo has his own flaws too
I don't get it either. He seems to need a break from the forum.
Maybe. i also recalled him calling you stipid or something. Look i have no problem him wanting to defend players but keep it civil
No need to defend MElo. He is what he is.
I dont get upset at all. Im actually just following the trend of the forum. Its currently dominated by 2 people who literally spam every thread with how much they hate Melo. Its fine.. they are entitled, but hearing a different half truth everyday and in every thread has destroyed any real BB chat that goes on here.
Also its relevent that TFK, who is the biggest anti-Melo thread spamming troll was actually kicked off a realgm forum he once moderated, for doing exactly what he does here. So if these guys want to blast every thread with their crap its fine, Ill answer it with crap... so long as its slow at work.
Want to talk about the coach? Melo's a coach killer who cares.
Want to talk about the young guys? Nobody gets better playing with Melo
Want to talk about the offseason? Who cares so long as the Melo cancer is gone.
Want to talk about how lousy Melo is? They wont start their own thread, because nobody will post in it. So they have turn every othe legit chat into one of the above.
Who are they?
TFK: kicked off realgm because he couldnt stop spamming the forum with anti-Melo fodder as he does here
DK: who knows what this guy is about.. but he hates Melo. He also hates dunking and thinks the rims should be 11 feet, but yea.. he's TFK's minion in terms of posting volume and content
Bonn: Funny he rags on Melo's volume shooting because this guy has posted 50k times and Im not sure he's ever actually said anything at all, but he can book mark threads from 5 months ago and say "your observations are useless because you where so far off in your win predictions (I picked the Knicks to win 50, he picked 47).
So if this is what the forum has become then fine, Ill play along. When folks want to talk about basketball its great, but my REAL issue with these guys is they dont even watch. So they say stuff like Melo doesnt care about defense and loafs. If you WATCHED the game last night Melo was very physical with Lebron, pushed him a lot, scored with him toe to toe, made some great defensive plays, and then yes...gave up after the Knicks got ran out of the gym.
I dont get upset, or frustrated, or even irritated by this. Its the internet man... life is too short for that.
A lot of very good hoops people have left this forum because who wants to post when every thread ends up the same way?
I mean gunsnewing is sick of Melo and this team, but he's capable of using his eyes and commenting on what he sees. Ive good debates on the ups and downs and scenarios of whats happening without it degrading into the usual.
MY agenda is right out for everyone to see. Its not pro-Melo by any stretch. Have some fun. Tell us what you see. Make a joke. I mean... imagine how insufferable you have to be to get kicked off a forum you mod for constantly hating on one player. Cmon man!
