Looks good. Amare is beasting, Melo picking his spots, Lin's playing heady PG role, Chandler's our defensive anchor, Shumps, Novak, BD, JJ2, and JR form the deepest bench in the NBA. That sounded more like a balance offence. Guess you guys would rather see Melo fail, then see the "team" win. What statement is this? Believe me, as a true Knick Fan, I hate when my team loses games (I get grumpy immediately) usually, I watch most games WIN or LOSE and come up with my own conclusion about the games. Regardless of what ESPN, Frank Isola, Marc Berman or Steven A. Smith make you believe, I call it like I see it. Then open your eyes. See the Knicks as they are right now. Let go of your previous perceptions, and give in to winning basketball. 
Now if you want to debate the Jets drama that's a few pages worth right there, not this old Melo non-sense. 
I have my eyes open, that’s why I stated that Melo is not performing like a superstar this year and the Knicks have little chance of advancing in the playoff unless he gets his game together. Now if you disagree with that, I can recommend you a good eye doctor around my neighborhood because YOU ARE SERIOULY BLIND. As long as Melo shoots at least 32% from the field and scores at least 12 PPG, he is doing his job and any criticism of him is pure hate. If he can exert effort on defense, that is a huge bonus, and the offensive requirements drop to 27% and 8 PPG. I wonder what kind of fan would be happy by having your superstar playing like a role player for an ENTIRE YEAR and having the team barely clinching to the last playoff spot because of it. Or you mean why did the old "No Accountability, Inflexible" coach hang on for 7 games too long? Bottom Line 121 Wins - 167 Losses Most importantly 1 Playoff appearance in 4 years, 0-4 sweep in 1st Rd. OK, now give me the Knick's record and Melo's number since he came to New York. 18-24 under D'Antoni, 5-0 post D'Antoni. Man you are even blinder than I thought, I said since he came to New York. Give me the Knicks’s record and Melo’s number or maybe you don’t want to embarrass yourself? Sure 2 50+ Loss seasons pre-Melo. 42-40 with Melo last year. I already quoted this season's coaching failure. Señor, for third time, I asked you for the Knicks record since trading for Carmelo Anthony. Is clearly obvious that you do not want to embarrass yourself, so I will do it for you, we have won 49 games and lose 59 since we traded for Melo, now I understand if you didn’t like MDA (A lot of fans did prefer a more oriented defensive coach) but to say that Carmelo is doing good (shooting such a low percentage and playing like a role player) or that the Knicks are wining because of him is plain and simple a BIG LIE. Carmelo is having an off shooting year yes, but saying he's not contributing to any wins is comical. Does he have to score 30 for them to win? Not anymore, doesn't have to. Does Lin have to go for 25/9 for the Knicks to win? Not anymore, everyone's chipping in. Why can't people just be happy to see the best basketball we've played as a team all year under a Coach that actually holds players accountable? Because, despite 3 years of clearing cap space, we still don't have the any route to becoming a contender. If we had the same roster but with $40 mil in cap space instead of Melo and Amare, we'd have great options.
