One Of The Last Real Ones To Do It
This is the 3rd workout.... which could be due diligence, or the knicks weren't overly impressed the first 2 times

Depends how much he plays with the hip thing ( I know they say he's better but I'll be cautious ) and idk I what to expect but I want to be excited and don't want him to look soft , those numbers would be good I think . Maybe 15-6-2 and 1.5
Tomorrow
Knicks fans do not realize what Melo is yet. This guy has not had the coaching and players around him to be successful. Yet & still he led them to 54wins & their 1st playoff series win in years. He even managed to win a game against the HEAT's suped up team that gave the Knicks their 1st playoff win in over a decade.
Some Knicks fans complain too damn much.
Why wasn't Phil getting him signed instead of taking care of Lance Thomas?
Melo is what he is. Takes a lot of shots(and a lot of bad ones) to score a lot of points. Poor defender, medicore rebounder. His supporting cast in Denver was actually underrated while his performances have been consistently overrated. The 54 win team had Tyson Chandler and Jason Kidd(old Kidd)- two other vastly underrated players.
His coach was George Karl, I think everyone in the league now understands what that means. Despite that, he led Denver to a WCF (best in history) and lost against the eventual champion Lakers. You unknowingly solidified my point. With a Defensive anchor & a competent PG (Kidd was washed btw) he will win games & make his team playoff competitive.
I hope to see forms of this Melo this year
He went to the WCF once(a team also with Nene, Chauncey and young Birdman). The Knicks have stunk since the trade. And Kidd wasn't washed he just ended up playing too many minutes. And the defensive anchor and the competent PG are more valuable to a team than Melo jacking long two's and hitting them at a low rate. Stop overrating scoring.
