No we don't, because even if we ever win one, people in here, will still find a reason to b*itch.
Funny I was WRITING my post while NY BALLER was posting...great minds think alike...rep point given
No we don't, because even if we ever win one, people in here, will still find a reason to b*itch.
That's not what you said.
I think we've all gone mad! :lol:No we don't, because even if we ever win one, people in here, will still find a reason to b*itch.
You tell me what i said since you are so great at mocking me:"gotta love revisionist history."
That's not what you said. You said they were 1/1A. LeBron and Melo were not 1 and 1a out of high school, because they left in different years. So you are just making stuff up now.
BTW...I just want you to notice who is #1. The guy you are hating on: http://statsheet.com/bhsb/recruiting_class/2002
Nice find. Now can you figure out why THE ENTIRE WORLD is hating on STAT. Let me help you: Because he is watching from the BENCH because of a self inflicted wound.
These are all things I pointed out when people criticized MDA and our team's performance early. And I believe you told me I was wrong.
And if he needs a better supporting cast than LeBron would need then why would you want him? I can't prefer a guy who has never been to the finals to a guy that I know can carry a team there.
because lebron cant close. thats why i want him. what i essentially said before was maybe melo would need more talent to get to the finals than lebron had on his cavs team who he brought there. but, as the finals proves, the nba finals are won with heart, not pure talent. pure talent goes out the window when you have no true heart of a champion.
and if lebron wins this year with wade taking all the big shots, it still wouldnt be enough. lebron has to be the reason they win if he's gonna be put on such a pedastol. the heat have no legit excuse not to win it all except if Lebron chokes again. That would then be the (legit) excuse. the heat will probably less fatigued than the team from the west who goes to the finals because the only meaningful teams in the east are injured (except the celtics who i think age will catch up to them if they play the heat.) we lost shump in our series, orlando lost dwight, and chicago lost rose. although i have a suspicion the spurs could just beat the heat methodically
Melo can't get us in position to need to close. That's the point.
Who cares whether he can close if we aren't there in the first place?
I think asking for a trade is worse than leaving in free agency.
Asking for a trade indicates to your teammates you don't want to be there and makes it more difficult for your team to trade you for fair value.
its better to get unfair value (nuggets-knicks), than no value at all, right? (cavs-heat) if youre a mega star, waiting it out doesnt always make you look all that much better than demanding a trade
and you previously said you werent gonna say if lebrons situation was worse or better than melo's.
Like Melo is stepping up to the plate right? How many time you hear Melo on tv saying other people have to step up etc.. Yeah right!!! How about you step up first Mr. loser. I can think of $20 million reason why you should STEP UP. Melo is EPIC FAIL....no other way to say it.
Pretty much.how can he step up when he's playing against the best D and at all times, all 4 other players for the Knicks on the floor are complete non-factors
I understand what I said, and each situation is different. I didn't say that leaving in free agency is peachy. But I respect it more than demanding a trade, that's all.
More Melo apologists....
Shortened season, coach change, LaLa's not giving it up... Melo's not getting help, who's fault is that? MELOnomia. A good leader motivates his crew, gives them support if he's struggling. When he didn't get the ball, cries like a bitch.
Plain and simple, if you're a good leader or a likeable player, your teammates will play for you. Look at the team during linsanity streak. Look at all the smiles, cheers, hugs, drying humping by novak. Look at the stats for the starters. Look at 30pts per game Melo and compare that to his teammates during his streak.
9 years in the league and still no ring or even remotely close to hit. Soon enough he'll be able to look at both his hands and say, "damn, no ring." while Phil Jackson needs an extra finger.
you also said demanding a trade gives a team unfair value. you were referring to the knicks-nuggets trade. what im telling you is unfair value is better than no value at all, which the cavs got for lebron.
seeing as how youre so anti-melo, i wouldnt be the least bit surprised if up until d'antoni left, you were thoroughly convinced the nuggets got the much better end of the deal like everybody else thought who didnt like melo. i just find it funny how if you originally believed that, you're now backpedaling by saying the nuggets got unfair value. now look at the nuggets.
Now we are doing MJ comparisons?
Come on man...
