That's all I've ever said...they need a dirty work player that can shoot the 3

This true.
Enjoy it while it lasts.
I'd like to see a bench/undrafted player do this in the playoffs though. That didn't happen with Lin. Some wins now are okay to maybe get a top seed spot but recognize the whole team played inspired not just cuz of one player.

I'm still iffy on Melo this season. Two games doesn't change that.

I'm still buzzin off of that win.
Melo has literally carried us to almost all of our big victories this year.
I really think the Olympics put a toll on his body and that's responsible for his spotty play this season. There's a reason almost all of his peers sat that one out.
Starting to realize that our situation hasn't changed much....all we have is Melo x KP...EVERYONE else is hit or miss and is expendable.
This team might actually be overachieving lol

Exciting win last night, thought we were gonna fold when we went down big in the 3rd.

I believe Knicks can make the playoffs and even compete....its just about Melos leadership and Noah being crafty and a veteran and Rose being productive and all their experience... Those 3 guys have a lot to prove

Melo is not trash, we are not trading him, lets kill that noise
The problem that I see is, he still thinks hes the only one that can score, and also doesnt want to put too much pressure on KP.
So Melo tries to be the hero in every game.
Melo needs to learn to TRUST his teammates to carry him and distrubute the ball.
I love Melo to death and appreciate everything he's done so far, but he just has to trust his teammates.

His squad has been garbage for almost a decade, so I don't blame him for lacking trust in guys like Lance or Bargs who lost us that game bc he took a shot in the final seconds WHEN WE HAD THE LEAD AND TIME ON THE CLOCK

oh i wouldn't blame just him, he just needs to show up in the big games they been in, but he made stupid decisions like requesting a trade to NY and making NY trade all their good players for him when all he had to do is wait until free agency that summer to join them, they would have been loaded

Baker has been good in his limited play all season. I don't understand why he can't get a consistent 10 minutes a night to prove himself. He can spot up, pass, drive, etc. The more players you have on the floor that can do multiple things the better. He should've gotten consistent minutes after how well he played against GS but Horny be on some other ****

that's from Shooting a lot...Kobe style of injury j/p but I seen him grimacing the other day stretching his shoulders

No one on the Knicks have done that, I dont even think that 125 Melo took was even a pay cut as they claim.
Its all about money at this point.
I think Melo is happy with his gold medals, and thats it.

The fact we have made a few comebacks this year shows we do have the ability defensively. They haven't been huge deficits but it's encouraging to see for once

That was obvious the second he went full sleeve Melo
He never goes full sleeve unless his shoulder is acting up

The timeline narrative is another one I don't understand. To me it actually works out perfect if we can just get consistent play around these two. KP should be just about ready to take over around the same time melo no longer can.

yeah Melo never had that leadership or even developed it from the years i've seen, always thought he was a extremely talented offensive player, but i never looked at him like that leader of an championship team, feel he can be a 2nd or 3rd best player on that team though and watch him flourish, but he's too talented to be content with his career thus far
