If we want a championship we will need Melo no matter how you feel. I do believe that with some it's not about winning a championship because if you had a choice of Melo being gone and not having a chance of a Championship you would just rather loose. Listen I like Lins game but if he makes Melo unhappy you better believe Lin will sit. And the crap about him ignoring Melo on the court is totally wrong. Cut the man some slack. If Melo had to take a piss some of you would find something to complain about that. The Chemistry with the team is good. Let it alone
Well Said!
Couldn't agree with you more 199%
Melo has bad bad poor season. If that wasn't the case highlighting his poor play and some bad court decision
this career ppg/avg 27pt if Melo was playing like 1/2 his career totals we'd not be talking about.
Same goes for Amare 'zilch' Stoudemire season which seems to be coming along positively & finally.
The haters would vanish, NY would be 6-7 over .500 and we may have had this coach finish the yr.
Melo got no credit for facing the fire storms and answer all interviews never running away from the heat.
That's stand up guy to me, as a knick fan
Yes! I remember all the years they KILLED!! Eli Manning. How bad of a trade we made with SD. He just has such bad awwww shucks expressions blah blah blah
He dealt with this crap everyday and never said anything in the media and handled himself with class while the brutal NY fans killed him (as they did Ewing relentlessly).
Lotta haters in NY and there always will be. And, the only way to appease them is to win it all. Just ask Eli Manning. NY fans woulda traded him back for Philip Rivers in a heartbeat. Now? Maybe not. Oh sure - now they'd say "I always loved Eli - I never did not like him I just wanted him to play better and show that he cared more"
Same sh1t different player.
Did Eli ever quit on a coach? And in doing so quit on his team? Comparing those two is insane, they are nothing alike.
I did not compare the two, I made a correlation to the Media and Fans handling of situations. Eli was abused more than Melo by a mile.
You win here, everyone loves you. You don't, they hate you, especially if you are the star of your team and gave up alot to get you (Rivers, Merriman ... - looked like an awful trade for a long time)
