Chandler literally stood right by the rim and watched Lowry make a lay up . What is he here for if he's not gonna protect the rim or rebound?

man, I almost vomited my dinner watching 5 minutes of this team.

This is the most unwatchable Knicks team in a long time.

Atleast Tyson is showing some discontent with the results of this team. Look like he wanted to hit somebody.

Turned it off .... too embarrassing


Kyle Lowry is clearly better than any point guard we have on our team and I believe he could make somewhat of a difference if the end goal is Playoffs…..

But hey we aren't making any trades because our owner is shook and he rather give the vote of confidence, this MOTLEY CRUE OF MISCHITS can get it done themselves led by a guy who coaches them as if he was formerly the team's Janitor.
 
Another day, another terrible performance and we're setup for a 4 game road losing streak to follow, so things will only get worse. If Melo walks at the end of the year, which he will, he will be remembered as the single worst thing to have happened to this franchise ever...period, given the resources sacrificed from a re-building team to get him. Dolan needs to decide to trade Melo before the end of the year unless he he knows something the rest of us don't (which he doesn't). No matter what, we are a year and a half from re-building, but how many assets we have at that time decide entirely on the time between now and then.

I don't get how some of you guys still blame Melo even if he isn't playing? Yes we play like s*it but, the amount of hate Melo gets is just ridicolous.

I don't blame Melo for us sucking now. Melo is a great player, but if he walks at the end of this year, considering the amount of players and picks we gave up to get him here, you have to view the end result as a huge catastrophe for our franchise given it only resulted in one playoff series win. It's not Melo's fault our front office is garbage, but he didn't really help the situation either. Any which way you look at it, if Melo is going to leave at the end of the year and we don't trade him for anything before then, our franchise has played the Melo era as badly as it could have been played from the trade to get him here until the time he leaves.

Trade deadline is Feb. 20. Hopefully everybody is back by 1/20 to give the Knicks a full month to right the ship. I think Melo is tradeable to teams that are looking to get over the hump to contend for a title, let's hope someone like the Clips come up short before the deadline and they look at Melo as the piece to get them over the top. If Melo is serious about winning a ring before his career is over it isn't going to be in NY, the only reason to stay is for the money, Knicks should be working overtime to try to trade him if the team isn't winning by the trade deadline.
