New York Knickerbockers

kala ng new york nakajackpot sila nung maacquire nila si melo. on the other para sa denver most especially for george karl its a relief that they can finally move on. denver has no real superstar pero they managed to win they almost upset okc last year in the playofffs.

 

 

Correct. I've never considered Melo as a superstar too

MUkhang maabutan ata ng Bucks ang Knicks. Sayang!

Melo should learn his place and come off the bench. Start Novak instead.

He is better suited with Davis and Smith. He'll never yield to upstarts like Fields and Lin.

[SaintPeter5858]

Correct. Melo should accept a lower role this time.

I doubt it, the Bucks won't be able to mount a comeback with Brandon Jennings alone while supported by Drew Gooden and Ilyasova. They might not be able to overcome Bogut's season ending injury (again) and the boneheaded decision of their coach, Scott Skiles to bench Stephen Jackson when he is healthy. They simply don't have much height and talent to compete especially if they're not gonna improve via trade before the trading deadline on March 15. The same applies for the Cavs with Varejao being out. Irving and Jamison won't be able to lift the Cavs by themselves.

[SaintPeter5858]

Yeah, it will take more losses of the Knicks first before it happens

How's Linsanity?

[jopoc]

first 8 games since Lin's breakout ---- 7-1

first 8 games since Melo's return ----- 2-6

[SUICIDAL333]

Melo is the loser dito.

[SUICIDAL333]

Melo is not producing the much needed points

based on my limited knowledge of basketball, Melo does not fit the knicks system given their lineup. the knicks, with lin, stat and tyson are better playing the pick n'roll rather than using the isolation plays of melo.

 

it would help a lot if melo will allow being the third option next to Lin and the big guy giving the pick.

Its not just Chandler, Jeffries is also injured and his presence is also badly missed. Their offense is not a problem anymore as they've score more than a 100 for the past games. Sadly, their opponents have also outscored them also and it didn't help that Shupert barely played on this game or the fact that the bad JR Smith came out to play in this game. Melo and Amare sadly can't defend

[linsanity]

They should trade melo and amare/chandler for dwight howard IMHO. When knicks were winning Lin was running the show but he also made sure to rotate the ball though he was prone with TOs at least they won those games. With melo isolating most of the time they become 1 dimensional team. If knicks want to contend they should get D12 now! D for defense!
