Damn that's pathetic

 

[fourtyeight48]

You serious?  He did nothing much in Denver, and now in NY, he's struggling.  You calling LIN, T.CHANDLER, and J.SMITH trash?  The euro Belinilii just won 3point contest.  People don't understand it as much, so they'll hail Melo like a surrogate mother.  

We'll see what Melo does though. We'll see.  He put himself on that stage AGAIN, so we'll see.

They are trash.


How is chandler going to help melo on the offensive end? Lin was only good during the linsanity phase and this season. Smith is a low iq SG. Doesn't even start.

Again none of those players are all stars. They'll never be all stars in careers.

Lol at KD's all star numbers...homie does that in real life everyday

Lol the hate on melo. His team trash. He isn't getting any help at all. None of the players he is playing with will be remembered 10 years from now.

Melo just needs pieces around him.

In what weird universe was Lin not trash besides Linsanity? Even during that he was a turnover machine.

Tyson is highly overrated. Wouldn't call him trash but he really isn't as useful as he should be. J.R.

It's funny that every 'superstar' Melo gets compared to has legit teammates, yet people act like Melo had the same level of help they do.

Melo has never had a teammate as good as Wade/Bosh, or Blake Griffin, or Westbrook, or Dwight/Harden, or KG/Pierce/Allen, etc.

He's never been on a "super team" before. The best he's had is a chucking Allen Iverson for a year and a half. Put just one legit star next to him and see what happens.

Also he shouldn't be playing the 4, he's a 3.

Melo is beasting at the 4

 

[sea manup]

melo should have networked better in beijing 

 

[nelson999]

someone get this man in the Dunk Contest next year 

 

[markangelo]

Looking forward to all the "second half of the season predictions" articles that are gonna be out tomorrow.

Time to start getting serious.

Let's get it Pug

kyrie had 12 more assist and the same amount of rebounds as melo

Lin had his moments this season. He proved he is a nba player.

While it's fun to slander Melo and watch grown men's capes come to his rescue.

He gets no help on that Knicks squad outside of THJR.

Chandler is useless on the offensive end if he's not getting fed on P-N-R with a smart PG.

Defensively he gets pushed around by bigger centers.

Stat is good until his knee explodes ( which should be soon ) and his defense is below average.

Shump had been shattered by Woodson.

Felton is terrible and shouldn't be starting.

JR smith is a joke and does more harm than good.

Woodson is a joke, not sure why people thought he would be any different than the coach he was in Atlanta.

The Knicks upper management is a joke as well.

Last year was a fluke.

If the Knicks were smart they would blow up the team, keep Melo ( cause I don't think he's gonna walk away from money this summer ) and put correct pieces around him.

Also he shouldn't be playing the 4, he's a 3.

Very well put.

Agree 100%.

Sick of hearing how he is a #2 option. Dude is one of the best scorers in NBA history. He is clutch as well.

Hope he leaves NYK.

There is no way they can bring in talent.

Salary cap issues being the reason.

Eh, stats aside I enjoyed what Melo did more. Bombing threes

 

[sea manup]

is this game good or bad for blake griffins rep as a one dimensional player?

he scored 38 points which is great

but except for one jumpshot, every fg was an open dunk

Neither, its the ASG, those are the baskets people want to see.

exactly…should've at least gotten co-MVP with Kyrie 

 

[fourtyeight48]

Melo and Rondo.

Please.

 

[big j 33]

It's an all-star game.. nothing that happens is actually that serious or important. Blake's rep as one dimensional should have been debunked awhile ago. He doesn't just dunk... it's just what people say when they want to be critical of Blake. That and he flops or is "soft"

This season don't matter cuz he ain't on the Knicks anymore.

We talking about when he was actually on the knicks playing with Melo.

Flop is an art that takes years to perfect. Hey if it work in your favor why not? lol

 

[big j 33]

I said "he flops" and you're asking if I said "he does not flop"? I mean... really?

It's what people say when they want to hate on Blake and don't have anything else to criticize. It's certainly a valid criticism.. but so many players, especially some stars like Lebron, Paul, etc., flop or sell contact. It's a problem in the league, but not one that Blake is solely guilty of.
