Melo's an iso ball hog. Except when he manages to lead the team in assists. But then he actually sucks because LeQ and CP3 are real basketball players.Melo's not as clutch as Paul Pierce. Except when it's shown statistically that he actually is. But then he actually sucks because PP won a chip with his superfriends.
Now Melo's a defensive piece of ****. Except when you can see statistically that he isn't. But then he actually sucks because George Karl says so and anyone with eyeballs can see he sucks.
Of course none of this continual exercise in bullsheehit middle school piss-ant haterade is anything but the highest level of NBA basketball IQ and honest Knicks fandom.
Somebody needs to bump all those "Melo don't got patches on his warmup jacket" and "melo's fat" and "melo's a team cancer" threads... they were chock full of more brilliant arguments showing the level headed approach that it's not really about like or disliking Melo.
Jrod, your ignorant sluttiness knows no bounds, just like your boy Eli. Ive been defending Melo since day one, but Im not blind to the fact that its been a long time since he was consistently clutch, and his numbers as far as shooting pct has been going south. Look it up, please. Paul Pierce? Might as well compare him to Moses if you're going that far back.
Most of this can be traced to his body failing him, not about his character. Please dont make any criticism to be "hate". Was never close to being in that camp.
