I find it interesting that in many of Melo high performances, it's usually in close games...

Well if we actually played any defense it would come down a bit.

very good point. its easy to shoot for a good percentage when the defense doesnt pressure you

The sad thing is the Hawks are probably the most offensively challenged team in the league.


yeah, last night it was the 76ers, couple nights ago the same was said about the Hornets....some people just need to give it a rest with overreacting.
I'm far from happy with our D at the moment, but calling every team we hate "the worst offensive team" when they score is just pointless.

I didn't call any other team the worst offensive team and you are the one who is overreacting.

TKF on Melo ::....he is a punk, a jerk, a self absorbed out of shape, self aggrandizing, unprofessional, volume chucking coach killing playoff loser!!

Not zero sum-melo he never hustles.

Ask yourself why melo is guarding korver a straight catch and shoot player. But yeah a great hustle play....

knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%

I don't. He always gets his but almosts never facilitates for others or plays shutdown defense on the other team's best wing.

Actually if you are watching the game he rotated to Korver. JR is guarding Korver. Melo has been on Smith and Ivan when he has played the 4 and Stevenson when he is at the 3.

Why is it that Novak can't make catch and shoots like Korver?

He learns from Melo
Knicksfan: Hypocrite league that fines players after the game for flopping but in the game and with obvious flopping they call the fouls.

Why isn't JR defending Korver and Melo play Stephenson, these little things along with passing the ball quickly is what ails the knicks this game.
JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.
