Yup. He better perform or face the wrath of angry NY fans. He took the money now prove you're worth it.

Isola like many media sources need to attract readers. That don't mean its not crap.

This article is void of content.

realgm is much too big to manage properly, and is an ineffectual, bureaucratic, and pandering collection of mediocre arbiters, making decisions based not on dialogical nuance but personal grudges and weakness. kind of like a fascist state promoting groupthink. i am happy to have been banned. they suck! a wise person will not look at each and every expulsion from that collection of power-possessing fvckh3ad5 with equal weight. fools will, of course.

are you a fool? you seem to be, since you keep coming back to this realgm exile like a hungry dog returning to eat its own shyte.

put another way: that you or others rely at this point on the "conclusions" that the good folks at realgm arrived at regarding me and tkf and others is an irrefutable sign of an extremely weak and desperate interlocutor.

forums should consider themselves fortunate when posters are willing to admit when they are wrong-- as i do-- and at the same time are enthusiastic when they have learned from others-- as i do. that doesn't happen at realgm, moreover you have never done this for as long as i have been here. in fact i say you should leave here and go there... you'd fit right in. but if you remain here, the increasing number of posters who are more or less like-minded to me should not have to tolerate the various forms of abuse from people like you who clearly have impure hearts and who prefer to play games... into perpetuity.

your posts drag down the level of dialogue on this forum. i hope andrew and martin monitor your posts.

It's really not about Melo alone. It never has been. It's about having a leadership team in place that can establish the right culture and atmosphere that breeds success. We have been hoping and praying for a front office more like the Spurs and now we have a good front office and a legit direction for the franchise. We can't expect a Title is gonna happen but we should expect a good franchise and winning team. This team should be a contender over the course of the rest of Melo's career and I think he's got the kind of game that should allow him to remain effective over the remainder of his contract. It's about what Phil and Fish can do with the team over that period. Melo will be what he's always been but if the rest of the team can be built up around him then we'll have something Special.

I think this team has a chance to surprise again much like they did 2 years ago. It's not a sexy team in terms of big names but there is a lot of talent here all the same. If Fish can bring these players together and develop an identity they can win this division and make some noise in the playoffs. Just seeing the attention to Defense alone is a big deal, but then adding the Triangle offense as well should really catapult this team this year.

What surprise was there two years ago? Everyone and their momma knew that team couldnt compete in the playoffs. The offense was a gimmick and they didnt play defense. Old ass Boston exposed it, and Indy that ironically doesnt score alot gave them that defensive business.

you make fair points. Yes we won 54 games but a lot of things broke right for us. Then in the playoffs we nearly blew a 3-0 series lead to a depleted old celtic team and of course Indy pretty much owned us. However i dont want to talk about the past im excited for the new direction Phil Jackson has started
