Melo M13 Debuts as Part of Jordan Brand Christmas Day PE Collection




Them shyts are hard

Been waiting to see these for a min, saw a leak and prayed that they weren't the 13s and they are

Melo is a sad and textbook case of the mental holding back the physical. If he just attempted to be more efficient he could be. If he just took better shots and moved the ball around he'd be a much better player. Instead he seems obsessed with trying to have the big moment or carrying the team with his shooting.

Those last possessions were that in a nutshell, the unnecessary three, then the dribbling the air out the ball before getting ripped by Bradley.

The worst part is that these dudes haven't read up on the new CBA, shyt is going to make signing big time free agents damn near impossible which is their usual "Lets go after _____ this summer" hopes come to grinding stop .

Honestly, I heard the difference is 138 million if you leave and upto 238 if you stay if you're all NBA team... I would play for a team owned by Donald Trump, renamed the MAGA Raptors for an extra 100 million. I'd play for the Islamic State Warriors for an extra 100 million. The only way to build properly going forward is value acquisitions but that's more in the vein of teams that have rebuilt in the draft and are looking for more pieces to solidify their core. Like say if the Bucks picked up a piece in the offseason to solidify their core through trade. You're not gonna get that 1 player whose going to revamp your franchise anymore even without the new CBA, I haven't seen that happen in a long time outside of LeBron but he's gonna be a billionaire regadless.

Teams need to start looking overseas and at their D League Rosters for gems. Raptors have Bebe playing heavy minutes and he and Powell actually spent time developing on the new D League team before now being great contributors. There's literally nobody to go out and poach next year for the Knicks. Every major FA is kind of spoken for. When you run up and down the list you see guys that seem happy in their positions or guys that really do not fit the Knicks at all. They need to deal Melo and take a chance on some players with potential and picks if possible.

I'm not acting like that. He's good and he needs a lot more minutes. I'd like to see him develop and play a lot more, and Melo traded for some young talent. 1 great prospect and 1 good prospect isn't enough, you need to have a lot more players you're developing.

let's not forget it took him over 5 seconds of full speed sprinting to not even get halfcourt on the final possession

 

[NY's #1 Draft Pick]

Honestly, this might give us and teams that can find cheap value guys an advantage going forward. If we can continue to bring in talent from overseas and finding gems like KOQ and Holiday we'll be in a good spot.

That's fine, but you're going to need to put an elite talent next to Porzingis. You can fill out your roster with quality players, but he's going to need someone to play the Pick & Roll/Pop with him that is a real threat. Tanking is going to be extremely viable now for the teams that can stomach it.

Yo ya cannot be serious with this shyt. The new CBA pretty much shyts on the free agency dreams ya folks have every summer, but striking gold on late round picks is so much more sensical and probable than tanking and acquiring a blue chip prospect. We will watch the Bucks and 76er's surpass the Knicks all while Knicks fans are grandstanding about how "that tanking shyt rarely works".

 

[ISO]

Foh with this doom and gloom about the new CBA and KP's development

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

Cats not even Knicks fans, yet are constantly in this thread telling us what we need. FOH. Go to the other team threads with your "knowledge".
