I see it too. He is not as bad as people make him out to be. He tries and is smarter than Copeland and Brewer

did Felton play the first quarter?
No but Detroit is playing D now making it hard for Melo to do everything on his own

What are you talking about? He's been our best overall player today.
24 points (7/18), 4 assists, 3 boards and 2 steals +11 and our Knicks are up 17 here in the 4th quarter.
P.S: Just because an NBA player misses a couple of shots here and there, doesn't mean Melo's "forcing" anything because when in actual reality; Melo LED us to victory today.

he tries, but at times he is just devastating.
like for example against Boston, whenever he was in the game whoever he was guarding was either scoring 2 points or going to the line.

yeah - he is not good and gets forced into switches and mismatches but he certainly does the best he could and often forces the opposing player into a bad shot since he assumes that Novak will just quit

When Melo moves the ball out of doubles, takes it to the hole, plays hard on defense he's impressive.
When Melo shoots over double teams, keeps shooting even when he's not having a good day, takes plays off on defense...not so much.

true, he's not hitting the shots in the 2nd half, but he's hardly being a selfish ball hog

yeah guns!
7-18!
And you said he was having a bad game! Some kind of dummy you are SMH
And people are talking about trading Novak for "veteran muscle"? What a joke. The man's 2/5 from beyond the arc today, led the entire league in three point percentage last season and currently ranks 3rd here in 2012-2013 in regards to three point shooting percentage.
I guess in the eyes of (some) NY Knicks fans, if Novak isn't leading the NBA ala being ranked #1 in 3 point shooting; it's time to TRADE HIM! Being 3rd amongst the entire NBA just isn't good enough. What a freaking laughing stock joke some of these people are...
Why is Chandler still out there???
when JR goes into that playground dribble I get nauseous and light headed - such classy basketball

It wasn't one of Melo's better games, but some of the posters here make it out like he was terrible, when infact if it was anyone else the tone would be much different.
26,4,3,2 +14 is hardly a bad game, although yes it obviously wasn't one to rave about.
