sounds like Melo was drunk-commenting on Instagram last night
http://espn.go.com/blog/new-york-knicks/post/_/id/62415/carmelo-i-cant-wait-to-see-porzingis On Friday night, Anthony took to Instagram to offer his opinion on Porzingis in an interesting, unfiltered give-and-take with his fans. One user wrote on Anthony’s page that he “can’t wait” to watch Porzingis this season. Anthony replied, “I can’t wait either. He’s a steal.” Another user wrote that Anthony should “stop the drama” and that he was “too old to be throwing temper tantrums” about Porzingis. Anthony replied, “DRAMA? there’s no drama. Why would there be? Yall will learn soon enough.” Porzingis wasn’t the only topic Anthony addressed on Friday night. He also responded to fans who questioned his fit in the triangle offense and his $124 million contract. “How about you forget about Iso melo and enter the triangle !! Team ball bruh !!” the user wrote. Anthony’s response? “you wouldn’t know the triangle if it was right there in front of you.” Perhaps the most interesting give and take was centered on a criticism of Anthony’s decision to sign a $124 million contract with the New York Knicks. The user wrote, “you got 124 million reasons to like n support any decision the Knicks make. You wanted to win you would’ve signed w/ ChiTown but you wanted every last dollar. So you don’t wanna be here, please waive your no trade clause n Phil can get you on your way. It’s about the name on the front of the jersey, not the name … excuse me, the “brand” on the back.” Anthony’s response? “let me tell you something sir!!!! You have no clue what the hell you talking bout. I never made an excuse about anything in my life and I damn sure not about to now. Your made at the wrong person or thing in life. Channel your anger and frustration elsewhere. Not over this way. If your mad at the money I make, then so be it. Don’t look like that’s going to change. So either, love it or hate it. I can care less. I’m here for my team, my family, and my fans (obviously, not you). Your name is preznyc, so I’m assuming your from ny. Instead of being so negative, why don’t you support. Your opinion doesn’t matter to me. What you think of me doesn’t make or break. At the end of the day, I’m a NYKNICK. You either like it or not. I’m gonna do me regardless. #StayMe7o” #Knickstaps

Phil is doing the right thing building through the draft. If melo doesnt like it we will gladly unload his contract and stockpile more picksStarksEwing1 wrote:What do you expect melo to say? He isnt gonna say he hates the pick to the public, it doesnt prove he likes it I'm not defending him, i'm just saying the obvious. I don't think were building through the draft,J grant just happens to be a much better option then THJ, who is as one dimensional as they come. ES

crzymdups wrote:"Can't wait to play with Porzingis" can be taken several different ways, especially coming from a 31 yr old basketball star who feels he only has a few years left. One user wrote on Anthony’s page that he “can’t wait” to watch Porzingis this season. Melo agree's he also "Can't wait" but fan said "To watch". Maybe Melo means he'll be anxious to watch him play, but (Im nit pickingly having fun) maybe its from another franchise view? Melo should stay off the social media. His response to the money was sort of Dolan like but not nearly as sharp! |

what carmelo meant to say was.... "i can't wait that long either. y'all should have drafted someone who's ready to play 40 mins now"
Nixluva is posting triangle screen grabs, even when nobody asks - Fishmike. LOL
So are we going to reference that thread like the bible now? "The thread of Wroten Page 14 post 9" - EnySpree

fishmike wrote:actually I thought they were pretty solid responses. Fans asked him the dirty questions and his responses appropriate, if he's to engage at all. I think he spoke very well on those responses. It will immediately put and end to all this noise about him not liking the pick and people tearing apart rumors. It doesn't matter if he likes it or not, but he took the correct public position. I cannot teach anybody anything. I can only try to make them think - Socrates
