Harvey Anton of the NY Times HATES Melo and we were going at it on twitter....he was berating Melo for not being Lebron. I said "you're faulting him for not being Lebron? Really?"

They don't realize this is the Olympics. Fat Lazy hasn't won a MVP, scoring title, let alone gotten any team to the finals which, I don't have a problem with. I don't like the fact Knicks fans put him on the same Level as Lebron, Kobe, or even D-Wade. He's the Benard King of this era which, isn't a bad thing just not elite.

:umad: he's clearly not fat. So you just salty and he's been to a western conference final so that's something ,but no knicks fan says he's as good as lebron Kobe wade . He's top 10 in the league

That really has nothing to do with anything though, we're talking about fans who act like Melo has never had a "black out" moment in the NBA

Reread the thread title and see the word "SOME" in there....
Jets fans are already booing Tebow.
I saw the word "some". I used the same word yet you replied to my hypothetical situation with a defense of Jets fans. That's how it works. When a segment of a team's fanbase, who may or may not be real fans, is questioned for something ludicrous, real fans get on the defensive.

You're right in a sense that it's a personnel issue, last year pg was the biggest problem; nobody to create for others or themselves except for Melo, and no spacing on the floor. It didn't get much better when Lin started getting minutes either, because he wasn't too great at running a traditional half court offense and got most of assists from drive and kicks when he wasn't turning the ball over.

Hopefully Kidd still has something in the tank and Felton plays closer to his days in New York than his days in Portland, if they are then we'll get to see Melo coming off more screens and shooting open jumpers ( sort of like he is in these olympics ) and less of Him iso'ing trying to score over double teams while trying to create for others.

Never see him hit 3s like that in the playoffs. He's shouldn't even start IMO

Dog, you're an idiot. The way Melo gets defended in The NBA is completely different than it is internationally. Melo has a bunch of all stars to attract attention away from him. He's getting the table set for him every fukking play. Plus, you don't want Melo to be solely a catch and shoot player.

this is why every other NBA fan laughs at Knick fans, regardless of league status

:comeon: Every single team in the NBA has multiple fans exactly like that dude. People pick on the Knicks for the same reason they pick on the Jets and Mets. People hate New York and will take any chance to take shots at anything NY. The Yankees and Giants don't provide those opportunities often, so Knicks, Jets and Mets it is.
