EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU WANTED MDA GONE, ADMIT YOU F*CKIN IDIOTS, YOU WANTED HIM GONE. MELO HATED HIM TOO AND KNEW THIS TEAM WAS GOING TO BE GARBAGE WITH HIM AND WE WERE! MELO SAVED US FROM HIM, HE SAVED US FROM MORE LOSING SEASONS TO COME AND HE SAVED US FROM WASTING THE TALENT ON THIS ROSTER.
Melo didn't have to come here, that money shit is bullshit, he would have got paid the same amount in Denver. He WANTED to come here, to play in front you guys and to be a KNICK.
Melo has single handedly won us games this year, WHERE WAS YOUR SAVIOR OF THE KNICKS STOUDEMIRE!? BEING A 100 MILLION DOLLAR PIECE OF SHIT!
Den you are one of the dumbest motherf*ckers on here bro, Melo this and Melo that, that's all I f*ckin hear from you.
He quit on the team your right but god damn I would have also BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE WAS F*CKING PRODUCING.
and where the f*ck are the threads for JR CHUCK LIKE A BITCH SMITH and Landry I SUCK DICK fields!? is it because they played for MDA and liked losing so they don't get hated on for lickin dick?
Red rep me, talk shit about me, IDGAF any more. I sick of you people.
Damn bro your right, call the Knicks, tell them your K-Black from KnicksOnline and tell to trade Carmelo immediately.
John Hollinger has forgotten more about hoops than you ever knew.
It's a pretty widely accepted thought that points/FGA is an important and useful stat.
I doubt that very seriously....very seriously.... I love it with bookworms come up with useless stats and try to act like you know something we don't know...we call them DONUTS and they don't RUN with US just so you KNOW...
You can use your archaic stuff to figure it out.
But when you decide to open up a book and read something, maybe you will find that advanced metrics actually can help you discern interesting things about sports.
I seriously don't understand the timing of this thread. Why make a thread about something that happened weeks ago when we are down 0-2 and getting our asses kicked by the Heat???
Melo has been carrying this team for weeks now and all of a sudden we need to talk about Melo pre MDA when Amare just took himself out the playoffs yet again? Worst thread of the moment.
Awwww perfect....advanced metrics lol..... sounds like a wallflower lol.... why does that line from hoosiers come to mind:" measure the basket how high is it???? 10 feet" Leave it to some donut who can't play to come up with some crap so they can interject their non-player self into a hoops conversation lol Next we can use quantum physics to calculate the correct trajectory of the ball into the hoop gtfo lol You gotta remember who you are talking too I started RIF(Reading is Fundamental)...
It's been a while since I posted on here as work has me bogged down but after last night i am breaking my long held silence.
I can't take it anymore. EC Player of the Month, areat April. But we finished this season pretty close to the six seed where we'd be against a pacers team we could beat. Why aren't we there? Because Melo didn't like the coach and quite frankly I'm effing sick of this.
Never before in my life have I seen a Knicks player quit on his teammates, admit he quit on his teammates and then have all forgiven when he actually gave half of a crap on this team. This guy is a nine year vet, but he needs a coach to come in and hold his hand and check on him like a freaking six year old?
This guy is a joke. Say what you want about amare who has not had a great year, he never quit on this team and these fans.
And maybe if Carmelo cared for more than half a year we wouldn't be getting embarrassed by Miami.
This is irrelevant. It's the past.
I "gotta" remember who I am talking "too"? RIF buddy - it's to, not too.
But that's okay, you are obviously not bright enough to accept that some people might not have needed to play the game in order to advance solid hypotheses on how the game works.
Advanced metrics can be used to tell us something, if you choose to ignore that, you choose to remain ignorant. That's fine with me. Feel free to do you.
But just because I (or anyone else) realizes the value of advanced metrics and how we can really measure effectiveness of a ball player more accurately doesn't mean I (or anyone else) don't (doesn't) know what I am talking about. I am looking for the best way to even the playing field and understand how guys truly compare.
Sportswriters and GMs everywhere have accepted the value of andvanced metrics - and many GMs (people much more in tune with the game than you will ever be) are using advanced metrics to great success (see: the 2011 Dallas Mavericks). But I'm sure you probably know more about running a team than Mark Cuban and basically every GM in the NBA who has commissioned advanced scouts to track advanced statistics.
KBlack25,I agree with you on everything you have said about Melo.He has single handedly destroyed this team b/c he does'nt want to play team ball.The Knicks or anybody else CANNOT win playing Melo ball!!
I have lost alot of respect for melo b/c of the way he has acted this year.He quit playing,acted like a baby,got his coach fired and has completly gotten the knicks away from playing team ball.
Stat has clearly gotten a raw deal out of this whole situation and its not right.He only got to shoot the ball nine times BUT made 18 points.Melo on the other hand thinks he has to take every shot on the floor and thats the reason the knicks suck.
Melo has single handedly turned this knick team into the 76ers when AI played there.He acted the same way and how many rings did he end up winning? NONE!! The knicks also play alot like the cavs did when James was there.When the ball got threw to james he would hold it the whole 24 seconds and shoot.How many rings did James win with the cavs? NONE!!
So don't get ready anytime soon for a championship trophy b/c its not going to happen until Melo gets traded or grows up.
I haven't been on the board in a few months, we've been smoked by Miami twice, and it's clear to me we would've drawn not Miami, but quite possibly Indiana, Boston or Atlanta if Melo decided not to quit the first half of the season. That's why.
Can you please show me where Melo ever stated that he "quit" on the team? Also, if you're blaming Melo for losing to teams like NO, CHA, NJ, TOR... then that's sad.
