You don't watch melo or the Knicks play just admit it . What difference does it make melo averaged over 22 last year injured and with a horrible Fg % . You guys say isoball is a black hole when it's not going in buy when its dropping it helps the offense so if he gets his fg% back up that helps him and stat. Not go mention he has a pg again Just like after the last Olympics . As much as people shyt on him and stat they still made the playoffs both years with mismatched pieces . How did melo and stat play with Woodson ? That's our coach now and they played fine.
So saying the nets who haven't played one quarter together and traded for the guy with the worst. Contract in the nba and old Gerald Wallace are a 2 seed makes sense? But you are saying a bolstered playoff team with Woodson having a training camp are going to be worse ? Makes sense
I agree Carmelo is on fire, he's going to be great next season, but lets not turn this into Nets vs Knicks....Ok fukk it lets do it.
Joe Johnson is a consistent All-Star. He can create is own shot, defend the perimeter , and give you at least 20 points a game. I'd rather give him 20 mill a year over Stoudemire and his decaying body.
Gerald Wallace is only 30 and he's still a great defender.
What did the Knicks management do this offseason? Hire a bunch of old guys and get rid of their young pieces. Those idiots were ready to give up Shumpert for a 38 year old Steve Nash. They let Jeremy Lin go for nothing, they signed the All-Retirement team with Jason Kidd, Marcus Camby, and Kurt Thomas.
The Nets lost Jason Kidd in 2008 and Vince Carter in 2009. A few years of rebuilding and we already have brand new squad that can do damage in the playoffs. The Knicks took 10 years to rebuild a good squad after the Ewing era.
