the look on his face during this interview has me ready to turn against him. i feel like it's a repeat of Marbury. a player i didn't like gets traded to the Knicks. i give him the benefit of the doubt, but he show me that he is exactly who i thought he was. even with my stance that this team needs more time, i'm finding it hard to root for this guy.


It is too early to call him that. Way too early. I am surprised you are blaming Melo for the NYK losing streak.

i'm sorry, but this guy can only score when the offense grinds to a halt and moves over and lets him dominate. his idea of facilitating an offense is going for his and dishing it off (MAYBE) if he needs a bail out. his game is uninspiring. the decisions he makes just leave me scratching my head. and i'm puzzled that anyone is saying otherwise.

i've been supportive of the team and i haven't given up yet, but i cannot fathom a situation with the Knicks being successful until Melo commits to playing team offense. i am not one of those people who thinks the coach is ****ing up. it's so clearly Melo. i would guess that almost all of his baskets come unassisted. that's not good. takes the rhythm right out of the team.

the crowd was screaming at him to "MOVE THE BALL!!" the reason Amare is not scoring is because he willingly moves the ball early in a possession only for it to stick with melo as soon as he gets it. you can hear the collective groans of the crowd every time it happens. it's not a called play. the dude is just trying to hard to be the man.

i was watching on a feed that somehow managed to capture some of Breen and Clyde talking off air and both guys were tearing into Melo's style of play. it's embarrassing to see this guy force as hard as he's forcing. at this point, i'll give him the benefit of the doubt. he's not a bad guy. he's just trying to do too much. he's pressing.

Agree mostly that Melo is forcing too much. But you can see he too is frustrated. Earlier in the season he was moving the ball more but the offense couldn't buy a bucket and our shooters can't shoot. Yesterday the offense was a little better but there was no recognition from Melo and no trust.

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

truthfully our game was better when he was on the bench. Sure three pointers were going down but guys seemed for comfortable.
