Knicks · Melo celebrates is birthday early... (page 1)

Is it just me, or does Melo look pretty chunky. I understand that these guys have lives after basketball but I hope that Amar'e and Melo put other things aside and begin to get in shape and work on their game this summer. Let's not forget that the C's pulled out the brooms on us.

Is anyone tired of seeing these guys getting cuddly with Swizz Beats? I mean where is Alicia Keys Swizzy? How does he have all this time to kick it with the homies. Alcohol and Melo aren't a good combo. Athletes come here for the Perks too, sometimes more so

Melo has a fat face. I just care about his conditioning when the season starts.

or is it man-tities

PRay we don't hav another big snacks or masaman curry on our hands. His cheeks be lookin real fat. Maybe that's just his baby-face nature. But if he needs a manzier come October, I think he should ride the pine (only half serious on that).

if melo isn't in top physical condition it doesn't matter if the knicks fill out the rest of the roster.

i dont know, i prefer a guy like KG who lives on the beach in CA and just trains all summer. i hate the reality shows and all the partying and stuff. STAT was in great shape last year and he was showing up in page 6 once a week so hopefully its the same bit. obviously these guys need to have lives outside of basketball you just hope that you didn't trade half of your team and give up 1/3 of your salary cap for a guy that's gonna spend 5 nights a week in the meatpacking district and only a few days a week in the gym. this guy needs to LIVE in the gym and get stronger, how many times did it look like he was out of gas at the end of games? happened a few times. smh

Yet another Summer and we are worried about our players conditioning. I thought this came to an end. We should be completely forgetting about every Knick player for the Summer, but we aren't because we are hoping they come to camp in shape.

Cool.

Co-sign......

is that swizz beats? I mean do these men ever grow up. I understand wanting to look "hip" and cool, but these clownish clothes, and wearing the hat cocked to the side is just hilarious..

How many pics did we see of Amare last summer, going to broadway shows, Lebrons party, hanging out with Ciara, etc, yet you big-up Stat for being in shape. But we see a few pics of Melo celebrating his birthday (BTW Toney Douglas was standing behind him, shame on Douglas for not conditioning his shoulder 24 hrs/ everyday) and that automatically means he's not working out at all? These guys have lives too. And I know you dont really think KG lives on the beach working out sun up to sun down with no time for play in between.

I guess the fact that Melo is looking pretty pudgy is what is concerning people. I wish there were some reports of someone being a workout warrior. I miss the days of reading about Ew and the Georgetown workouts. Melo has a huge contract and his conditioning has come into question. Some guys, i.e.Antoine Walker, can carry the extra weight for awhile and be effective but it ususally catches up to them around 30.

wait, what? Because there is a pic of a baby-faced Melo there is a question of his conditioning?

Dude has averaged over 36 MPG since coming into league. Has conditioning ever been an issue?

Why is Toney Douglas the only other Knick in these pictures?

Probably because the other Knicks dont live in NYC during the summer. Tony is probably only there because he is rehabbing from the shoulder surgery in NY.

Papabear Says

I have no problem with the pictures as long as they are drinking booze only and not smoking weed.

What do you expect from a guy with an f'ing Warner Brothers tattoo?

I hate to hijack this thread, because afterall, Melo has no business having babyfat on his face like hes had his whole career. But I must ask this, whats wrong with weed Papabear? Isn't it written in the Bible that its ok to use all plants that bear seeds?
