Even if the Knicks win a championship the credit is going to Phil, not Melo. Lettuce be cereal.

Depends how they win.

If Melo goes ham the whole playoffs and hits the game winner to win the series. It'll be all about Melo. Aint like Phil gonna be down in the locker room after getting drenched in champagne and crystal smoking cigars.

Melo will still go down as the greatest to put on the orange & blue, no debate

Not denying that. At the end of the day "Because Phil".

 

[squatchnt]

Yep. As long as Melo does his thing hell get his due.

Another related scenario thats interesting to think about. IF Melo does ball out under Phil and the Knicks win a championship, I wonder if/how that would effect the legacies of MJ and Kobe...

Yeah because phil is a legend but if it was someone like billy king or joe dumars they wouldnt get that same type of praise

I guess thats just how the game goes

I think it would effect PJs legacy more. While Kobe and MJs gifts are easier to see. PJs gift of being a zen master isn't tangible so to speak. Him taking Melo and this Knick team to a chip would be tangible than a merfer LOL, but won't take away form MJ or Kobes legacy IMO ...

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Why would Kobe and MJ be affected my Melo winning a ring? Phil's not even coaching.

 

[xbiker47]

Melo and MVP talks?

Lets wait for the season to begin

 

[7thave btn 31stn33rd st]

I dont know about MVP, but Melo is gonna feast on that pinch post. FEAST

 

[hsalem]

44-38

Y'all acting like Lebron doesn't ever deserve the MVP

you see that latest pic of him in a cut off? no bad lighting lmao he's looking outrageously skinny

 

[kingfoamnyc]

51 wins this year. Melo 26 and 7 . 3rd seed in the east. Melo second in MVP voting

 

[flyeed]

The **** with lebron that's funny is that if dude had been playing at that skinny weight all his life, and then out of nowhere posted up pics of him looking brolic as F like he did in Miami people would have the same reaction

"Son! You see how much muscle he put on, it's a wrap for the L b!"

Not gna front like I'm not excited to see how he plays now though.

I could be wrong but I think Fisher is just a proxy! LOL

 

[flyeed]

Nah Fish ain't just a puppet, he's the chosen one as the successor of the Philluminati [emoji]128314[/emoji]

 

[squatchnt]

I hope he is because I have 0 faith in his coaching abilities at this time. Isn't the Zenilluminati successor program at least 4 years? LOL

It wouldnt
Thats basically saying melo isnt up their with mj & kobe,

based off of what he did previously without phil?

Jordan & kobe wasnt very successful without phil neither

 

[nick.]

If Phil brings a chip to NY it'd be his greatest accomplishment imo.

 

[hsalem]

It's not going to happen until LeBron turns 35, man. 

Or we need to get him out of the east if we want a chance to get to the finals

or acquire him.....

 

[finallyfamous]

How do you plan on doing that?

 

[johnnyredstorm]

How do you plan on doing that?

Let me know when I could buy tickets to the Knicks vs Cavs at Quicken Loans. Gonna try and get my friends to take a road trip out there for that game.
