First of all, I am ecstatic that Melo is a Knick - I have been a fan since I saw him playing in college and I think he will be awesome here.

Second, Melo and Stat together is going to be a NASTY combo - I have read a lot that both are one dimensional ball hogging chuckers but seriously, Stat helped resurrect this team and Melo will make us even better.

Third, we totally over paid - we all know that. But you have to roll the dice when a guy like Melo becomes available. While we still need some pieces, we are well on the way to competing with the Heat. I think our lack of depth will hurt us against the Celtics and western conference teams.

Fourth, why would anyone ever believe the rumors that Zeke is coming back? Or that Donnie didn't have his hands in this? Or that MDA is on his way out? I think Donnie and MDA are doing a great job. This franchise has been awful for over a decade and their resurrection has occurred with Donnie and MDA - yet so many doubt them.

The bottom line is we got Melo, this isn't the second coming of Starbury, Melo is a better player and will have someone to play with here. We should be excited about this. I know we gave up a lot and mortgaged the future once again, but sometimes you need to place a big bet to win.

Let's celebrate the arrival of Melo and save the analysis and judgement for a while until these guys hit the court together.
