Owner Real Deal Posted May 4, 2012 Author Owner Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 I still hate the Lakers Most non-Laker fans do, lol. I didn't hate the Knicks until this series with the Heat...thought they would do SOMETHING, but now I just want them to be swept, so they make drastic changes and come back strong next season.

Not to mention we haven't really seen Lin,Melo,Amar'e,Chandler all on the floor together.. If a drastic change would be like, Amar'e for Aaron Afflalo, count me in!

Owner Real Deal Posted May 4, 2012 Author Owner Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Well, in my eyes, trading an all-star is considered a drastic change, especially when the Knicks are already struggling to score the ball. I have no faith in a Melo/Amare duo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Keep Amare, trade Melo for Iggy and pieces and problem solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YugoRocketsFan Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Pretty crazy, and he makes the playoffs every year too. T-Mac has been in three 7-game series i believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 It seems as if George Karl's argument about his coaching job being easier without Carmelo Anthony may have substance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JYD Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 *Didn't watch that much of Carmelo in Denver (I will admit, not going to start arguing and debating about something I don't know that much about) but I've watched about every minute of every playoff game Melo has had here and in the 7 losses he's not the problem. * Last year the roster was gutted for him, and the roster was horrible around him, especially when Billups went down (end of game 1 i believe) and then amar'e in game 2. This year, the roster was definitely better, but he started off poorly in game 1, shumpert tears his ACL, Chandler has the flu. Game 2, Chandler still wasn't completely over the flu, Melo had a pretty solid game, still without Shumpert, and then Stoudemire cuts his hand. Game 3 he did all he could to keep us in it. He was getting thrown doubles, etc and no one else stepped up and did anything. I think it's far more about the supporting cast/injuries as to why he's been so unsuccessful in NY as oppose to his actual play. Let's not forget the 42/17/6 effort last year when he almost willed his way to a Knicks victory versus a very good Boston team (better than this years Cetics). And people need to also remember the Heat are probably the best team in the NBA (or the toughest to play in the playoffs IMO). You have two legitmate superstars, HOF players and 1 all star who could, and has been the go-to guy on another team. This entire thing is stupid. You want to get on him for his time in Denver? Whatever. I don't care for that much either. His roster's were never that good, and the West for the past decade has consistently been far better than the East top to bottom.
