I thought you needed 3 stars to have a big 3? Ever since Chandler went to the Knicks the media has referred to them having a big 3. Since when is Chandler anything but a very good roleplayer? Yeah, he has a DPOY but let's be honest, the guy isnt exactly Olajuwon. I can see why Knicks fans would be dissapointed year after year when they are fed BS like this.

Interestingly enough though, he was pretty much the Knicks' best and most consistent player for a good stretch last season. Anyone who watched the Knicks last season knows that Chandler was pretty much the lone defensive and energy guy along with...Jared Jeffries.

Re: Since when do the Knicks have a Big 3?
If the media creates stories like these hyping the team up, it becomes easier to bash on the Knicks, which creates headlines. Same with any other great teams. It happened to the Heat for the past couple years and I imagine it will happen ot the Lakers now. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not comparing the Knicks to these teams, the media creates these headlines because there is a sense of "underachievement" and obviously the fact that they're a big market.
And Amare? Dude punches a fire extinguisher after a playoff game. So I can't say that's the most absurd thing he's done/said :lol

well the lakers and heat are actually talented teams, and teams that have had success. the media didnt 'build them up', they actually played well. the same cant be said for the knicks

Re: Since when do the Knicks have a Big 3?
They had a big 3 with Jeremy Lin, Amare and Melo.
Now they don't have Jeremy Lin, so no more big 3.

Re: Since when do the Knicks have a Big 3?
Amare Stoudemire says the Knicks' "Big 3" of Tyson Chandler, Carmelo Anthony and himself ranks "right there at the top" with the Lakers trio of Andrew Bynum, Pau Gasol and Kobe Bryant, the Heat's Big Three and Oklahoma City's duo of Kevin Durant and Russell Westrbook.

Exactly, mate. Media will make stars out of anyone if its convenient. That dont make them the best players. I'd rather have Marc and Zach from Memphis than any of New York's 'stars'.
But the average dumb bloke buys into the idear that high ppg = star. Thats the only reason Carmelo and Stoudamire are considered stars at all. Fans always give the highest scorer disproportionate credit for team success. A scorer like Stoudamire is a star, but a lockdown defender and capable rebounder and finisher like Marion is a 'role player'.
Basketball is complex, the media dumbs it down for the average idiot to grasp and follow, the average idiot comes here and repeats the simple axioms the media has trained him to believe. Its that simple.

Dwight Howard is definitively easily the best Center in the league, there is no Howard/Bynum, Bynum/Howard nonsense. Besides that, when Andrew Bogut comes back healthy next season that puts another Center ahead of Tyson Chandler. He's better both offensively AND defensively. Al Jefferson is obviously better. Al Horford is also better when fully healthy and there's probably others I just haven't thought of. Tyson Chandler pretty much became the most overrated Center in the league the second after they gave give that joke of a DPOY.

Re: Since when do the Knicks have a Big 3?
i think the term 'big 3' has become a catch phrase that became popular w/ the celtics and carried through when teams like the knicks/bulls/heat got so far under the cap to try and get 3 superstar players on their squad.
if you look at the knicks roster, its almost a big 3. Melo is a superstar player, amare WAS a superstar player and still young enough and tyson chandler is a top 5 center in the nba.

No he isn't. He's a top 10 center in the league, but he's by no means a top 5 center in the league.

Re: Since when do the Knicks have a Big 3?
Saying Chandler isn't top 5 is pretty ignorant
who is better? Gortat? Kaman? Kwame? Turiaf?
Bynum, Howard, and Noah rank higher than chandler imo

I said he's in the TOP 15, NOT THAT HE'S 15.
That being said,
Metta World Peace
Mike Miller
Stephen Jackson
Harrison Barnes
Carmelo Anthony
He's in the mix with those other 4 so he's in the 11-15 range.

Carmelo Anthony doesn't pass or play defense, he scores inefficiently, and his rebounding is adequate at best.
He has a big name, if not he's nothing more than Evan Turner given the green light to shoot as much as he wants.
Overrated, when I'm building my team I rather have Mike Miller for $3 million a year than Anthony for $20 million. No brainer

Melo has dirt on Stern. And the Knicks GM owes Stern a favor so Melo is allowed to pursue his passion of being an NBA player.

Chandler is a role plyer, not a top 5 center. The only reason why people overrate him now was because of his finals run with the Mavs.
