Nothing on Boogie?
Smh what confuses me is that melo was in the playoffs every year in Denver people talk as if he never made the playoffHe basically cosigning everything Karl was saying....and I'm in my car like who the fukk gave this dude a job thinking we care about his opinion.
Hahn was spitting some real shyt about Karl being bitter and a bad coach trying to blame Melo for his failures. Bill Daughtry a fukking clown too, that's another fakkit I'm done with.
Vertical Pod with Woj: Donnie WalshIn other words, he [Jim Dolan] called me at a certain point... he was out there, and I was reading about it and all that… and he said 'Well here's what it's gonna take, and I don't think it'll get done if you don't do this.' And it was the deal kinda that got done. And he said - might've been the same or another phone call - and he said, 'Look Donnie, I'm not a basketball guy. I can't make this decision. So this is your decision.' And I said 'Ok, I wanna call Mike D'Antoni.' Mike didn't really wanna do it either. And I thought, "We're never gonna get a guy like Carmelo Anthony if we don't do this deal… and so I'm gonna do it." And I made up my mind. I kinda knew I'd have to give up Gallinari, who I loved, and Wilson Chandler who I loved too. I thought any deal we were gonna do to get Carmelo that was gonna happen. But I didn't like giving up Moz, and I didn't like giving up, uh… the little point guard.
Ok I haven't addressed the fatherless quote because I'm not surprised to hear a white person say that shyt. I come to expect to hear things like that from them so I'm not wylin out over that. It sounds fukked up to hear a white man say that about a black man and it hurts but ask yourself is it false??
They took our fathers out of our homes years ago. That's one of the reasons our community is in dire straits. We need black men to be fathers to instill values into their children so we can better our chances of being productive members of society. We need that shyt like everyone else does.
I'm not too hung up on that cause I'm not surprised to hear that from them. I didn't see the tweets from Karl sayin Ghetto shyt but to be honest nothing surprises me when it comes to them. You sound surprised..
Melo didn't do the things he needed to do on the court bottom line.
Karl touched on a sensitive topic that we don't like to hear other people say..
So you've now evolved into legitmizing Karl by broaching this shyt theory.Ok I haven't addressed the fatherless quote because I'm not surprised to hear a white person say that shyt.

If he would of stuck to the original plan he would of been a free agent in 2010! He signed for 6 years like a dumb ass instead of 3 years@Joe Sixpack And to anyone else constantly being on the wrong side about the Melo trade...
From the horses mouth...

What's funny is, people tend to have it in their head that Melo was a part of choosing who he's traded for. Carmelo Anthony requested a trade because he didn't like the direction the Nuggets were going at the time. The Knicks were where he wanted to go and the Knicks GM was in the advantageous position.
The fact that a player not liking the direction the team is going and requesting a trade wasn't a nuanced thing that Melo created. It's been done and will be done. The Knicks were the idiots that agreed to terms designed by the Nuggets.
It's quite comical... I've even bought into that.
It's just not true.
Shut the fukk up you dumb ass!!!You hung up on the circumstances of Melo's situation instead of the overall effect of not having fathers!His pops died of cancer, wtf are you even talking about.
Karl should've never said that sh*t, point blank period. Why is that so hard to understand.
Dog just shut the fukk up and move on BI'm sure Karl has taken a deep dive into the intracsies of the black community for idiots like @Joe Sixpack to co-sign.
Breh!!!!Ok I haven't addressed the fatherless quote because I'm not surprised to hear a white person say that shyt. I come to expect to hear things like that from them so I'm not wylin out over that.

Now look at what you know about Carmelo Anthony's defense... Let's give you a few imaginary points and let's make believe his defense is because of his father dying when he was 2 years old.It sounds fukked up to hear a white man say that about a black man and it hurts but ask yourself is it false??
Now think about what you know about Melo's comments in the media about social justice. Look at Melo's position in the NBPA. Look at Melo's fukking family. Look at Melo's lack of scandals. Look at Melo's lack of a record. Look at Melo being able to do what every other young Black kid with the same athletic ability yet be one of those who made it. Do you even know who Lenny Cook is? You'd know, even with crazy talent, the wrong attitude will destroy your chances at making it to the league. Look at Melo's role as a team leader and hardly any stories of mutiny in Knicks locker room has been talked about. Look at Melo's son and Melo's presence in his life. Look at Melo's lack of children as a result of affairs. Look at Melo's ability to play his role in an Olympic squad. I could keep going...It sounds fukked up to hear a white man say that about a black man and it hurts but ask yourself is it false??
I'm saying he's not alone in the opinion in regards to the AAU babies part. There's a lot of coaches who look at that shyt with disdain.
I wrote that separate from everything else so that you wouldn't lump everything together
So you think I think his defense was garbage because of his father not being there?Breh!!!!
You seem to know basketball. Are you surprised by anyone saying anything about melo's defense? There have been ad nauseam discussions, threads and articles about Melo's lack of defensive effort. It's not a fukking surprise.
You really have the audacity to claim you chose to discuss his defense in this thread instead of the comments which are the basis of this thread because a publicly known white coach's book unapologetically calls the reason for Melo's deficiencies to be his lack of a father is less surprising than an NBA hack claiming Melo's defense is suspect???
nikka... If I had to bet my life on hearing a random white person's basketball opinion state "black person #1188's problem is he didn't have a father" or bet my life on hearing a random white person's basketball opinion state "Carmelo Anthony's terrible on defense, fukk him!"...
nikka, I'd bet my life, yours and your mothers on the the next person saying shyt about Melo's defense.
FOH. It's a bullshyt statement for you to claim you didn't speak on it at first because the "racism part" is not a surprise. Not only that but you called me and @NYC Rebel crybabies for stating the ignorance of his statement yet now you acknowledge the bigotry because you didn't want to belabor the point?!
Joe, have some fukking respect for yourself. Legitimately look past this being the Coli and try to give an honest response just ONCE in this thread.
Look at what you just wrote. Now look at what you know about Carmelo Anthony's defense... Let's give you a few imaginary points and let's make believe his defense is because of his father dying when he was 2 years old.
NOW look at what you just wrote, again. Now think about what you know about Melo's comments in the media about social justice. Look at Melo's position in the NBPA. Look at Melo's fukking family. Look at Melo's lack of scandals. Look at Melo's lack of a record. Look at Melo being able to do what every other young Black kid with the same athletic ability yet be one of those who made it.

Look at Melo's lack of children as a result of affairs. Look at Melo's ability to play his role in an Olympic squad. I could keep going...
Now, because of his defense, you really want to come in here...
nikka...fukk what you think you know about the Coli, you're debating with an actual person with intelligence and you can somehow believe that Melo shows the characteristics that give GEORGE KARL MERIT????
For real???
Breh, dead ass...admit you're wrong right now. A nikka who was raised to be a fukking man, a fukking man who had a father and had a good attitude would admit when they are off base or wrong.
Prove us... Prove the yall of the Coli who would not mind if Cornel West said this about Melo that you have the proper mind frame...admit you're wrong....
Or, nah?
first coach to ever lose in the 1st round to an #8 seed

Dude actually said we to afraid to talk about Melo defense as if it's new to us or something we don't want to hear.Breh!!!!
