I agree. Melo is a great player and probably the best that we will see in the next 10 years or more. But thats not what the haters want. They want a player to play a certain way, their way and Melo does not play the way they want him to play. They will tell half truths about Melo's stats. And one of them I call The Sean Hanity of basketball against the Knicks.
hmmm... shaq, kenny and barkley just completely underscored what has been said by a few people around here ever since the trade.
yet you mean to tell me they know nothing either.
koo-ky
While I agree with what they are saying they are not the most credible sources. Shaq is not an analyst, he is an entertainer, same with Barkley, they make people laugh, not come up with earth-shattering insights. Only one that consistently raises valid points is Kenny. It's funny how one quote from a clown like Barkley agreeing with them can send some into pure ecstasy...like your whole life has new meaning now or something.
it's possible to be insightful and informative while also being funny. i think all three are very very smart and i learn stuff. same with chris webber.
i don't get sent into ecstasy having the deepest concerns for the knicks utterly confirmed.
ecstasy for me would come from the knicks putting a winning team on the floor for once.
list for me the paid experts who endorse your point of view why don't you?
First of all, I just said I usually agree with Kenny, especially with his suggestion that Melo try to make a decision with the ball within 4 seconds.
You just seriously called a dude that screams "birdmam! birdman!" at the top of his lungs every 5 seconds an expert. Chew on that. I watch their TNT late night segment frequently because it's funny, not because of the quality of opinions. You can't get serious basketball analysis from that crew anymore than you could get all your news from the Colbert Report taking everything at face value. It's an entertainment segment that deals with basketball, not a basketball program with the primary purpose to educate and a secondary purpose to entertain.
Barkley knows basketball, Shaq know it to. You guys are trying to fault them for what they said but they are telling the truth they are privy to a lot more insider knowledge than most reporters. A lot of people hate it when they hate on the Knicks, but they are not looking at the Knicks with fan eyes they are looking at them objectively.
Yes, of course, Charles Barkely, objective Knicks analyst. You are too funny.
He hated on the Knicks because they sucked when they got Amare and then Melo he started to warm up to the Knicks. He even acknowledged Melo as a great scorer, he calls out Melo's fault you guys say he isn't objective but the truth is Melo would rather jack a shot up than pass the ball. Isn't that the truth?

Take a look back at the quotes. The Knicks have always sucked in Charley's mind. Even when we're good, we still suck. Please stop trying to make him out as objective about the Knicks. It's pointless.
