The Official Knicks offseason thread

[Typical Knicks Fan]

I hope Melo realizes that with Lin gone and Amare not what he used to be, the pressure is ALL ON HIM now. Now the Knicks are officially his, and that includes the losses.

Like someone said before, when Melo gets doubled now, who is the other option to go off?

Lin was proven to be able to transition to PG/SG and just start scoring at will...who is gonna do that now?

He realized that during the last month of the season and he went off. Averaging 30pts a game while playing his best all around game during the season. I think he knows how to handle pressure.

Melo was asked after tonight's game about his characterization of Lin's contract as being "ridiculous."

Melo: "It was ridiculous for them to do what they did, as far as throwing that out there and making it tougher on us to sign him back."

Why do people think Melo doesn't like Lin?

"I don’t know. I can't worry about that. Ask Lin he’ll tell you what a good relationship we have"

More Melo on ‪#Lin‬:

"With Jeremy, I know he definitely wants to be back in New York & Dolan definitely wants him back."

Melo: "It's just a matter of them figuring it out at this point."

Was Melo surprised by the reaction to his comments?

"I always get backlash. It's nothing new. It is what it is."

More Melo on ‪#Lin‬:

"I hope we get it done, man. I would love to see him back, honestly. I would definitely love to see him back."

which is what makes this baffling(or not baffling if youve been following me)

I Got A Feeling The Knicks Are Gonna Match In The Last Hours

Who Fukking Knows

But Eating 2 Years And Trading That Expiring Is Def A Good Idea

I Dont Know How True It Is But It's Been Speculated That His "Source" Is Isiah Thomas

he's the only one that's said they definitely wont...other beat guys just havent really said anything...and SAS has ties to Melo's camp and ditto Isiah...

He also said Dolan might resign Lin. But trip Are you satisfied with melo clarification ??? Or are you going to still say he hates Lin and wants him gone ???Sas is also wrong despite his ties to worldwide Wes . Melo pushed dantoni to let Lin play and was just a few weeks ago eating dinner with him in la . Why??? '
