Why people bringing Melo in to a situation when they have zero idea if he is an issue is silly. Maybe they have sources and actually talk to people close to the team and if that is the case then that would be different.
That article did really say all that much. It seems like the biggest quote about the knicks was pulled from his last media interview in which he complained about a lack of a clear direction. Also, for those thinking that he would apologize it doesn't look like he is remorseful at all and I am pretty sure when a player misses a scheduled meeting the NY F.O. staff tries to get in contact with that player's agent/team. So why not say its not really an issue or the whole thing is being overblown? |

He may be upset but it's not because of his role in the offense!!! AFTER the Triangle reset and Phil talking to KP, it's clear KP played well to close the year up until he tweaked his back so what proof is there that KP had issues at that point having to do with Team Offensive strategy??? By the time we got to the close of the season and they were playing the kids, there wasn't even a whisper of dissatisfaction from KP until the day of the Exit Meetings. |

Technically he didn't say anything at exits..So you have no clue what spurred his dissatisfaction.. |

Correct but I have overwhelming proof that not only did KP approve of going with more Triangle but he played well along with the kids down the stretch! There was no angry towel thrown in frustration on the bench type of outburst. NOPE! KP just played really well and the kids continued to play better after he went down. So where would this supposed issue have come up over the last month of the season? |

If you want to hang all your hopes on 3 random games go right ahead but 3 games means nothing. I can cherry pick 3 games during anytime of the year but that doesn't mean it reflects what he thinks about the offense, team, Phil, Kurt, Melo, JH, teammates, Dolan, or the fan base. |

Wow you didn't listen. It wasn't just the 3 games I posted!!! It was the entire stretch of time from the Triangle reset until the end of the year. KP and all the kids got better and there was no strife or issues that you can point to. No angry outbursts or yelling between players and coaches. Just the younger players getting more minutes and playing hard. You can't point to anything that would indicate any "open rebellion" as Woj put it. Not from KP and the kids. They were playing hard and together in the closing days and they were listening to the coaches. NOT ONE SIGN OF DISSENSION!!! |

Is your proof video showing him taking a 27 footer within the first 5 seconds of the shot clock?...Pure Triangle. Or perhaps the PnR with Baker?...Triangle at its finest. May agree that its less about the Triangle and more about having to deal with Rambis and Phil for 2 more years. KP: F PHIL, I rather go biking then hear him say just one more word. Translation to you....I Love Phil and the Triangle. 'Knicks focus should be on players that have grown up playing soccer or cricket' - Triplethreat 8/28/2020

Was smart of KP to hold back until he talks to Phil. People already get the gist of his dissatisfaction with the team's direction, or lack of direction.
