2012-13 Carmelo Anthony Player Performance and News Thread

[Crazy⑧s]

A guy that is out in the first round 8 out of 9 yrs is a championship player? He will not reach the final in his wildest dream.

Why the F is there a Denver troll on here?

I always thought Den stood for Denny from Meet the Parents.

But I agree with the guy, 8 out of 9 years guy gets bounced out of First Round but now he is supposed to be Championship Caliber?

I think he can be a championship caliber player. He needs to play with that same intensity he did when he carried the Knicks to that 18-6 stretch to finish the season. There are no excuses this season. He likes the coach and for the first time this roster will have some stability and a full training camp together, something Melo and Stat have yet to have.

Let make sure I am not misreading what you wrote. Are you blaming Melo the Knicks losing Lin? Not sure where you are getting that from. Melo may have a lot to answer for but the Lin debacle is not one of them.

I posed a question and you answered it, i gave reasons why our roster is in flux and that his presence has been detrimental to the team thus far. If his antics don't translate to wins then yes i soley blame him and him only on why the knicks are not headed in a positive direction

I can't argue with what your are saying too much but to call it the deal from hell and blaming Melo for that trade is unfair. Yes Melo could have waited and signed as free agent but ultimately it was the Knicks, more so Dolan, who pulled the trigger on that trade as they were desperate to bring another star to NY. The Knicks could have said f*** this guy and moved on. Let's not act like we gave a championship caliber team to get Melo but I do agree he will be the main reason if we lose or win. I won't go as far to say he would be soley to blame but a majority of it does fall on his shoulders.

Pierce was the finals MVP, not Garnett

My bad. Same point tho.

future big 3!!

Melo stunk it up VS Argentina. Real bad. Got his whine on, the rest inevitably went to sh*t.

Oh word? Now I definitely have to watch the game. I hope it's on 360.

Not to harp on an old organ, but it was all smiles against DR and GB and something else against BRA and ARG. The middle-ground is missing and that's the zone where the killer instinct springs from.

yeah he wasnt too good, but its just an exhibition game.
If he does this when it counts I'll be more harsh on him.

If he does that in an exhibition, you think he will handle it better when the pressure is on?

[metrocard]

The key to Carmelo's success will be how well he moves without the ball in his hands. Change his style to a Kevin Durant type game that way Carmelo doesn't have to create different angles or force up shots.

Sadly Carmelo is better at making difficult shots than easy shots...thats the problem we're forever going to be doomed with having Melo as the primary go to guy.

If you shoot a hundred you're gonna have 6 or 7 go in.
