    have you ever tried to look at it the other way around and think it was iverson's fault and he couldn't adjust since he was a "ball hogger" his whole career? nope because you hate melo and your opinion on him is one sided.

    you think i care about 5 wins, i predicted we would win 26 this year. I knew our roster lacked talent and we wouldn't do s--- im not delusional. I want to get a lottery pick with the 30 mill cap space we have going into the offseason. I want melo to heal the injury he suffered in game 3 of the season by sitting out the rest of the season.

    fam is acting like the knicks have good players on the team and they're playing below their talent level.

    we have about 6 players playing above 15 minutes each game that were in suits on their previous teams or in college.

    cole aldrich, quincy acy, jason smith, travis wear, shane larkin, cleanthony early. (rookies and players that were never good enough to get burn on any other team)

    lets add in a minute restricted amare, bargnani (played 20 minutes the whole year) jose calderon, a 37 year old pablo prigioni, 2nd year player tim hardaway jr and Carmelo Anthony (who is playing hurt)

    d--- we should have like 10 wins b you're right, i apologize.

    ^ yo "B" i dont really care about Knick problems plz spare me the deets of why they s--- lol, hold the apologies "fam".

    Hard to explain it comes from another forum i used post a little bit on because the sports discussion at SL was trash. Kind of an addicting comment. Anyone who f---s up or says something dumb.

    "Jay Cutler threw another pick, what a fucken can" for example.

    it makes no sense but its addicting

    I think Melo's played on plenty of talented teams in his career and has only gotten past the 1st round once. Yeah I know he hasn't played with many other stars but it's not like the teams he's been on have been horrible other than the current Knicks. The Nuggets were thought to be a good team every year and only went anywhere one time. If Melo was really that great and playing on even a decent team, they would have gone further a few times.

    I don't know how anyone can say Melo hasn't been a poor playoff performer when you consider his regular season numbers and his overall lack of playoff success. He's not a good team leader, doesn't have the right mindset to lead a team on a deep run and he's nothing special defensively.

    Melo's easily one of the most overrated stars in the league imo. Great scorer but not much else. I'm surprised most Knick fans seem to still want him as part of their future.

    Anyways f--- Melo, I went to the Lakers/Blazers game last night and it was fun. Lakers played real well I thought but were too under manned to pull it off. Ronnie Price getting hurt in the 3rd was huge too cuz he was playing solid D on Lillard who then went off in the 4th and basically won the game for Portland with Price not in there. Of course Lillard would have likely went off in the 4th either way but maybe Ronnie could have contained him better than Lin.

    Going again in February, really hoping Kobe plays but it'll be fine either way.

    Blazer fans were nicer to me than usual, it's like they didn't even care that I'm a Laker fan this time since they aren't very good this year lol, got very little hate compared to usual at the moda center.

    Pistons have now won 6 in a row since they traded Josh Smith, they only had 5 wins with Smith all year.

    They beat the Spurs tonight after a Jennings steal and then he got the winner with 0.01 left, exciting finish.

    Not even going to pretend I'm a huge Pistons fan...I only ever follow them when they're winning...so it's been about 5 years, and I've maybe watched 1.5 games now, including tonight but this is great lol.

    Just glad for them and SVG because they got roasted when they waived him and got nothing...radio in Detroit was going nuts, and even nationally many though SVG was crazy and showing his lack of experience as a front office guy. Happy it's working out for them. They're bound to come back to earth (hope not) but it's been a fun little run lol.

    What about "Blown Away" with Jeff Bridges and Tommy Lee Jones?

    Or "Monument Ave"?

    Report: Cavaliers, sending two first rounders, near trade for Nuggets’ Timofey Mozgov http://dlvr.it/82bbgp


    Holy s--- the Cavs are desperate if they do this, 2 1st rounders for Mozgov? Lmao...

    Lakers are idiots if they had a chance to trade Sacre and didn't do it, could have at least got a 2nd rounder and Sacre is worthless so I'd jump on that. With how desperate the Cavs are, maybe even could have got a 1st rounder. s--- trade Jordan Hill or Ed Davis if it got you a 1st rounder. Lakers missing out again.

    Cavs are doing this all I assume so Lebron and Love don't leave in free agency after this year.
