We were told it was important for us to be playing well
And showing the triangle is a successful system TODAY
We're 5-32
The All-Star game literally is so trivial right now
In the grand scheme of things, the only ones who care are
Melo and the Knicks brass-suits
The NBA, the networks, the sponsors and Melo's sponsors.
And believe it or not, the many many Melo fans!!!!They want to see him play and entertain. Don't be so naive to think this is not a business.
Can't say I disagree with SAS but his delivery is off the charts! Preach it SAS!!!!!
There have been several stars who sat the event out
Stars way bigger than Melo, he can be a host slash master of ceremonies
But to show up in uniform and play half arse minutes
Or ball out of control as if nothing is wrong with his knee is preposterous
Stephen A. Smith said it best it's such a joke
No one associated with either New York team should show their face not even himself
I love your double standard reasoning here too
When the Knicks are on TNT tonight what's highlighted in bold does it still matter Naloddy Doddy
Are sponsors concerned tonight if Melo is playing a top team in the Western Conference
Isn't this like the 2nd or 3rd game Melo has missed where we've been televised does business matter then
Do his fans disappear tonight and then reappear like he will come London and All-Star Game
Is that how the Fake Life works
Have you actually looked at the metrics, the demographic viewership draw for an All-Star game
It's a joke much like your reasoning, hardly anyone watches that game
Ohio State Buckeye Mascot Head Face is a Meloptoutunist
Many stars sit out. Good to name a few examples. ALso, list each particular injury and where they are with it. What does melo have wrong with his knee?
He describes it as a "pebble in his shoe", it hurts but can play with it.
While SAS can get ratings in the same manner you are redundant, its possible he could play thru this injury and the whole "Sitting out" is two fold:
1. He is part of the tank
2. He is hurting and sitting is a precaution
Is the knee hurting or unstable? I think if unstable he doesn't even leave the house. Guys play hurt more than we know.
part of the 124 mil he gets is to play even when hurt. Non of this suprises me. I think we are resting him and I for all I know he is not really hurting that bad.
Double standard or objective thought process? SOme people think or discuss different views.
Rockets knicks tonite?? Im not watching it. I don't know why the NBA is even letting it go thru. The announcers won't call the game, if its a Rocket feed they'll talk about the knicks problems for the causual viewer. Most of us here can write a book on it!
SAS can yell from the roof about a 5-32 team should not have a player representing. IN a pure world I would agree with that. But in the real world were most of the adults reside its not a double standard to think in terms of the buisness aspect. SAS is an entertainer. If your motivated hook, line and sinker by his rants then good for you. Media anger sells and your lapping up the pearl neckace it gives you! Good to the last drop!
You rant about melo like he is a Wrestling villan!!!!
