I know that Melo dropped 62 and all but.....was it efficient though? LMFAO.

23/35 is roughly 66%, so yes, I'd say he was damn efficient haha

The other day there was a post about Kay saying that teammates blame Melo. If so, they are not showing it here.
Maybe Kay was running with a comment Breen said to him weeks ago in a matter of fact kinda way. Pretty smug of Kay but we all know Kay is a weasel so it shouldn't surprise anyone. If it was a real story it would've been picked up by the rest of the media.

Winning has a way of even making Shumpert and Woody look like they have a father and Son relationship, but in reality JR is his son and Shump is the red headed step child..
Winning cures all and the media like to blow smoke. It's a toss up.

I know what I saw with my own two eyes, But I need to see Melo's BS% to tell me what I saw was a lie and that Lin still had the better impact in his game that night....

Absolutely, bro! We need to let this guy walk for nothing because clearly that makes sense.

True, key fact being the 0 assists! Also in the 17th worst category:
Currentness of game quotient: 0.076%
Explosiveness % of drives: only 7.6 Lebron units
Making of others better value: less than .027 Durants
In-game facial expression percentage: -.750
Relative value of tremendous assets given away to performance ratio: 175.946 Mozgovs to 1
Forgettability derivative: 16.8 Mardy Collins points
But he needed 31 shots to get 35 pts yesterday!
Winning is all that matters.
My take is Melo was "given" this game by knicks to give him his "Moment" and starphuchedness inhanced viability!
AKA: Kids love MElo!!!!

What does that mean "given" by the knicks??? It wasn't like they just fed him, he was on fire within the game. There couldn't be a predetermination when that was going to happen, it was just his night.

Someone's been spending too much time in the playa2 conspiracy threads...
By "given" I say that when a guy is on fire you let him go off. I have no problem with that.
Lets just say if you have a sizable lead and you count melos minutes this season one might say to take the foot off the throddle a bit and work the ball. It builds momentum and can be a turning point for a team strugging to find its rhythm.
If Melo got hurt in would many be screaming?
I never said it was a bad thing. Knick are in business to entertian and the "record" is there to be broken and its a cool thing!!!
IM not bashing, im just saying what it is. FUN! I have no problem with it, but lets be real, the laker game he took 4 fewer shots and had a lot less points! Since Nardog was calling out Melo haters I thought I'd just chime in that his inefficency is legit. Like anything he will have good nites, bad nites, low % and sometimes a red hot nite!
Personally I love shyt like that! Should have let him go for 80!!!
Let's just say in a sea of dismalness where you're 0-32 at home and have tried everything including stupid orange uni's, getting a franchise record with all the old timers on hand has a no-brainer appeal to it compared to "working the ball and building "momentum".
Momentum was going to be much greater with a 62 point performance fueling a blow out win than watching JTyler and KingKongCole go for meaningless double doubles in garbage time coupled with a Toure Murray poster dunk and Beno getting 6 assists before possibly getting traded to Sacramento for a cup of coffee...
Barkley was the model of efficiency. What did he ever win?
We have a another "patch" on the hated Melo warmup jacket...
Last nite we blow out Celts and Melo played very efficient!
NO patches to sew either way. Don't cry over spilt Cheerios!
