He basically was more interested in proving how brilliant he was and that is understanding of advance stats made him intellectually superior to those average fans who judge players by mainly what they see on the court. I've said it before, this is where a little knowledge in the wrong hands can be dangerous. If you start with a predetermined position and seek out stats that support what you already determined, what value is it?

+1 -- I've said this about many of the haters who would set up hoops for Melo to run through or make idiotic predictions or statements about "The Trade That Raped MSG" that over time, made absolutely no sense.
The sad thing was, in continually trying to TELL US ALL HOW BRILLIANT HE WAS dk7th more or less sounded like a petulant idiot. I mean, how many people on here post things like "I'm the ceo, I'm used to being right all the time..."
99% of his posts were unrelenting Melo hate, but he started one thread in Melo's entire tenure praising his play for one game against the Pacers. And then we're supposed to listen to his "fair and balanced" BS...

Oh well.

if that ever happens you will find me to be intellectually honest and acknowledge it. i have no ulterior motive when i critique players. i have criticized carmelo mercilessly as a player and a person when he has played or behaved badly, and i have praised him and expressed admiration when he has played well and behaved well.

i don't like playing games. that's for wannabes and neverbeens.

...tapping my fingers on the table patiently waiting.

Thats a wannabe mea culpa and will be a neverbeens

Sadly I think DK has taken his brilliance elsewhere.

All the winning must have driven him off

Yeah, nothing turns a Knicks "fan" off more than winning. I assume he'll reappear when we hit our next rough stretch.

He pushed the envelope a bit. He might have been told to leave for awhile.

Banned, maybe. Told to leave? You honestly think someone like that is going to heed suggestions to go sit in the timeout corner? Not likely.

was dk he banned?

He's probably on some Wizards message board educating people on how horrible John Wall is and how they would win more games if Trey Burke replaced him in the lineup.
