Knicks · Not Melo, not Stout but Jason Kidd healthy is easily MVP of 2012/13 NY Knickerbockers period ! (page 3)

I love how all the people that bashed the Kidd signing have decided to prop Kidd up in a laughable attempt to diminish Melo. Kidd is a good support / secondary / tertiary player but this team is clearly at its best when Melo is on the floor. You simply need to watch a game to realize this. The offense is clearly at its best when Melo is in the game and Melo has been playing great defense.

I think Kidd is just as valuable as Melo. Without Kidd on the floor, Melo can sometimes revert back to his old iso days. Melo even quoted about running the offense through Kidd. Thats all that needs to be said.

Amen! Both Felton and Melo benefit. Wait until Amare joins the Kidd party!!

That's what some try to do, but who cares, Kidd is important and we are winning games. Nobody looks at Derrick Fisher as the MVP of Kobes lakers, nobody will of these knicks if they win, so just enjoy the ride.

well i wonder who those people are.... I said from the start and 3g can verify this, that if kidd can turn back the clock every 4 games the knicks can win their fair share of games... I like some were worried with his age, but am very pleased and surprised to some degree with how well he is playing.. here is what I posted on realgm.. when we signed him.

KIDD'S game has not aged as well as nash, not even in the same class of player right now, but.. but.. kid is still a good player, good head on his shoulder and he will help lin out greatly, he surely is a lot better than baron is, and kidd can still hit that outside shot and defend bigger guards..

TKF approves of this move...


TKF approves that means we eatin good tonight!

so really don't buy into Nupe's foolishness here..

Foolishness would be asserting that Gallo is a better player than Melo. LoL! As for Kidd, many stated the signing was questionable and were infatuated with Lin. I specifically said, throughout the off season, that the three pg we signed were a vast improvement over what we had previously, without any sort of qualifier regarding age or health or whatever.

or foolishness would be calling melo a star or mvp candidate after 4 games... when we clearly know who the stars of the league are.... fair enough... try staying on topic, I seem to have you so rattled now that you are chomping at the bit to try to one up me... dude calm down.... this is not a good look fella....

Melo's been a star for 9 years. Know you don't like it but it is the truth.

i honestly think you and some other definition of a star is a lot different than mine....carmelo= Allstar..... lebron, wade, kobe, duncan, = star......

gunsnewing @ 12/10/2012 7:53 PM
Melo star, Lebron, kobe, duncan, KG = SUPERSTAR
IronWillGiroud @ 12/10/2012 7:58 PM
Dude is that a real panda in the pic?

If it's a real panda give Melo the MVP right now

Saying that Melo is not Lebron nor Wade does take away from the fact that Melo is an elite player. Somehow you think saying Melo is not LeBron justifies your inane position. It does not. It is a straw man argument. Melo has been a stud player since he entered the NBA. I am saying this and at the end of the day Melo is not remotely one of my favorite players.

So an allSTAR is not a star?

An all-star is a *perceived* star.

Melo = Superstar

Lebron = Mega Superstar

I really don't know what's wrong with you people. Without Melo this team don't have an ass chance of winning a title. In all respect Jason Kidd is a great player and he fits in this system well. But Melo is the Alfa dog on this team and Jason Kidd himself will admitt to this. If Kidd goes down and we get Amare back we still have a chance but if Melo goes down we can forget it.

Carmelo is a superstar I dont know how that can be disputed

So the people who are providing evidence for their arguments have it all wrong and the people making claims with no supporting evidence (Like "Melo is a superstar and you are clueless if you think otherwise") have it right? Sometimes, I don't know why I even bother.
