Put Some Hornacek On Our Game: 2016 New York Knicks Offseason Thread

[Mr. Jack Napier]

The treatment of Melo

Not the first time this happened, and unfortunately it won't be the last. Once he gets his shot back on track, people will jump back on his dikk.

 

[storyteller]

Gotta dead that trade Melo noise, a Melo trade is a bad idea. The max level players are tough to get to go anywhere, let alone a team that's top piece can't legally buy alcohol. We don't have our draft pick, so it doesn't help us by setting us back either. Melo's also still getting his legs back, which takes a long time for most players after knee surgery, so he's not playing his value up. You're talking about settling for less than best value and shooting yourself in the foot for free agency while giving away a better draft pick to a division rival...sounds pretty dumb to me.

Keep Melo and enjoy the chemistry that he's continuing to develop with KP (and Afflalo). Build up your youth, Galloway and Grant are both nice pieces to develop and KOQ can grow as well. Our needs are pretty glaring, a back-up PF who preferably can stretch the floor and a PG that can be locked in for years to come...19 million in cap space is the minimum, if AA or D-Will opts out we've got more...depending on who comes in we can generate even more space by stretching Calderon (an option if Conley were to come through because I think dude is the perfect PG for this crew).

Basically, just stick to the plan Phil has had and let him finish up his vision with another offseason of big cap space and a team that's improved light years compared to what he inherited.

We can complain Melo is playing like sh*t but not want him off the team...yes, this middle ground exists...I am there as we speak.Join me brehs

Brehs really complaining about Melo? He's passing well, working on the board, posting up more and seems to appreciate playing with all the new guys. Lest we forget he's the franchise but everyone's in a Kristaps frenzy right now, he's handling it quite well from what I see. It's a work in progress and we're hovering around .500 with a new exciting team, brehs need to chill and enjoy the ride a little. He's coming back from that injury still too.

I hope homie doesn't get caught up in any off court BS.

Being young, rich and famous in NYC....

Can't stand her. I remember when she cheated the Clipps this season.

 

[The War Report]

The denial some of y'all are in. :bronwtf:


Acting like Melo has won multiple championships with The Knicks.

 

[Slic Ric]

Clutchmelo getting hit with a technical and arm-wrestling defenders in front of the ref in crunch time...

You must be a Euro.

 

[Victim of Racism]

Fisher is an idiot and rather play seraphin. Monroe was working rolo and seraphin the other day couldn't he see what Quinn could do? I mean atleast he passes out the post.

O'Quinn over Seraphin on defense?

 

[Victim of Racism]

Hey brehs haven't been in the thread for a while...seems that O'Quinn hasn't played the past few games, what's up with that?

O'Quinn is terrible on defense.

In their defense, no they won't. They'll say he doesn't have as many assists as Lj (even though it's just fine that Dirk and KD don't either and that Chuck Curry, who is a pg, is now chucking 20 shots per game from 40 ft away). People who hate on a player who gets buckets like 'Melo, are brainwashed by the media and there is no hope for them.

Melo doesn't need to go, he just need to realize KP is a rare talent with a rare clutch gene, he has to willingly relinquish the number one role, KP needs 20-25 shots a game...Melo is seeing and feeding the beast lately hopefully Fish gets the picture...

Nah they will it's happened with certain posters before, but I'm won't say names, we don't need a civil war in here.
