Come on, be fair. Allanfan deserves some blame too!

It does surprise me to see myself in such strong agreement with Fish though!
you can tell who didn't watch the game based on the criticisms here. Once melo got it going, THE ENTIRE TEAM WAS LOOKING FOR HIM. Doug Collins said during the telecast that soemoen should let the bench know what the USA team record was. So someone told the bench. Everyone--INCLUDING THE ENTIRE STADIUM--erupted when he broke the record. No one on the bench, on the floor, or in the stands thought Melo was being selfish.
Good Lord. If you didn't watch the frigging game, bite your damned tongue.
What criticisms of Melo's performance are you referring to?
Sheesh

fishmike - Coack K held back his team and even Anthony Davis swoopin' and hoopin'.

Carmelo is representing the spirit and pride of the United States by playing beautiful basketball and the best fishmike can do is b#tch and moan?
C'mon Son!

bitching and moaning?
I said watching Melo and team USA dominate competition thats probably on a par with some NCAA teams isnt interesting (for me) to watch.
I said when you beat a team by 80 or whatever points there is a good chance it shows a real lack of sportsmanship.
Then after gymkata posts coach Ks comments defending their play I was pleased with those comments.
You want sheesh? You guys have like a "someone might be slighting Melo" alarm that rings in your heads if you suspect he's not properly being congradulated for his accomplishments. Thats sheesh.
Earl... how's the mayor doing these days?
Sheesh!
Just win! (for the Knicks)
Earl... winning by 80 isnt beautiful basketball. Its grown men beating up on a JV team.
Please
Sheesh!
Im taking nothing away from any of their performances but my god look at the situation. To be fair its damned if you do damned if you dont, but it doesnt make for an interesting match.
But yea.. go team USA. Lets show the world something!
I've spent more time reading this thread than watching the Olympics.
The Answer Man Misses Wilson Chandler

A. It requires about a quarter ounce of courage to throw darts at the past. When was the last time you were a fearless athletic supporter (pun intended) for an unproven Summer League yoot?
Think of it this way, if the playful commentary on Chandler was not entertaining and engaging, you would have never remembered him as The Mayor.

Ahhhh, thanks for the clarification Bonn!
I thought it was Fresh Knick Forum or Free King Fries for some reason.

Sometimes I'm so happy I don't get all these little inside jokes. Makes me feel like I must almost have a life...
And Bonn's total Melo criticisms are too small of a sample size to really use as valid argument fodder. Mr .470 (Copyright 2012 Bonn LLC) aside...
