Apparently Melo is pissed at the pick.

[Blue&Orange]

[QUOTE]Melo re-signed with a losing, aging, capped-out team. What did he expect?

If Jackson made any promises about a miracle turnaround, Melo was foolish for believing them.

The Knicks will have cap space, and it

[jzek]

Would have been in the Finals this year had he went to the Bulls.

Melo is the biggest joke in the NBA. He will retire as the biggest failed superstar of all time, especially since he can't use the "injury" excuse for his piss-poor career.

t-mac never made it out of the first round
vinsanity never made a conference finals

Melo has no clue how talented this guy is or how he will turn out, because if he did he wouldn't be apparently pissed at this pick.


And why does Melo care? Not like his money chasing ass cared much for rings. I don't blame him for taking the best deal out there, but you can't expect fans to take you seriously if you are putting money before a ring.

Agreed.

Dude put on a big show saying his championship window was closing and that money wasn't a big concern because he's "financially set". He is full of crap. A championship will never be the least bit important to him as much as money is. He really blew it not signing w/ Chicago or any other team that's currently not in rebuilding stage.

That's what the dude said. Both those guys had career altering injuries. Melo has been relatively healthy and has had no excuse.

[Optimus Prime]

At least he finally admitted that he was just in it for the benjamins.

Can't spell MALCONTENT without MELO.

Do we have an actual comment from Melo or are all you guys bashing Melo based on something Stephen A Smith said

He seemed pissed when someone suggested he was all in for money.

[kunk75]

actually he is paid to score well and rebound at a slightly better than league average rate since he can't pass or play defense

Melo is paid to play basketball, he should stick to that. Let Jackson do his thing and Melo needs to shut his trap and do his best to elevate this team.



Am I the only Jackson believer around here? Knicks made their first top 5 lottery pick in god knows how long and has ample cap space this coming summer.

A lot of that would not of happened unless Jackson pull those trades off and basically shut down Melo. He could of easily made a few trades and push for a few more wins and make a run in a weak conference but they will face the same consequence every summer with a mid to low pick and no cap room.

Whatever this organization did in the past has not worked so why not put some faith in a guy with a great track record in winning? The Pick may not be popular but there are no sure things with rookies.

Knicks need to relax and let Phil build this team instead of having a knee jerk reaction and pour in the criticism unless it is a quick turnaround.

apparently melo was ok with picking prizingis, he was upset over trading ThJr...and the media ran away with the rest

[bluechox2]

Do we have an actual comment from Melo or are all you guys bashing Melo based on something Stephen A Smith said

this, melo instagramed/tweeted that said prizingis was a steal

and instagramed/tweeted again about being upset over hardaway getting traded

he already knows the plan is to rebuild in free agency

[MellowYellow]

but even when healthy they didnt come through
