NO!

when i wrote 'probable' i didn't mean i expected us to lose this game, but that we looked like we would lose the game as the 4th quarter transpired.

team was not a team...and wiz were playing their azzes off...especially wall, ariza and nene

He never saw Isiah in that role before, he saw Melo more than enough to make a call.

So both guys get it ahead of Lebron?

no, just edited my post to try to say that. I wouldn't forget about LBJ in the MVP discussion.
But it says something when a guy like Magic Johnson tells us Melo's one of his MVP favorites.
Like it or not, he's there for a reason.

Barkley and stephen a. say it too. Doesn't mean jack

So let me get this straight. An NBA legend (and he's not the only one who said it) and NBA analysts all said Melo's rightfuly in the MVP discussion, but since you don't agree with it it doesn't mean anything?

You honestly think there is any chance Magic isn't going to say Melo isn't a candidate on a MSG broadcast to fans in New York?

NYKMentality might try "too hard" sometimes to prove a point, but it's only because he's "driven" to do it because of so many negative comments. I don't agree on everything with him, but atleast he knows what it means to be a fan.

I mean c'mon, you got a guy that's playing amazing basketball and is leading this team to their best season in a looooooooong while, and instead of enjoying it and be happy about it people insist on focusing on the negatives like that's "reality".

Just so we're clear, I'm not "attacking" you or anything, I mean you're not the happiest camper on here but you're not as negative as some, I think I can reason with you without "going at it" and that's why I'm saying this. I don't know, I guess I'm just tired of all of this negativity.

Bulls, Clippers, Heat and Thunder are all thinking the same.

He wasn't forced to say anything. Are you seriously trying to find any excuse in order to try to deny the fact that Melo is a legitimate NBA candidate?
For christ sake Knicks fans should be happy about things like these, instead it seems like negativity is the way to go here, and if one doesn't agree he's delusional.

I'd agree with that... I don't see eye-to-eye with guns on key issues here but you certainly can reason with him... I think he's a quality poster (even though he took some Lin-related pot shots at me when I took my Christmas break from this board when it started to get really, really bad)

Lebron should win it every year except for when voters get bored.

To be exact, Johnson said its whoever leads their team to a better finish of the season, between Melo and Durant.

You're opinion. Just don't go the way of NYKMental and risk getting banned by getting personal

Dig a little deeper. With wall back this is a different team and over their last 15 games they have been decent.

Not looking for excuses or anything, but LeBron is a once in a life time player, comparing anyone to him is simply redundant at this point.

We have been actually good at beating bad teams and not playing down to the competition. That and the fact that fast PG's are hard to stop AND that Was shot 11 for 20 from 3 land.
