It appears as if we are beginning to lose the locker room as I predicted a little while ago. Carmelo is now being reported as unhappy. Recently it was Grant and Williams who complained, soon it will be KO and others

Does he look like a happy camper?

I'm actually fine with the team's progress. We're not winning the championship this season 10000% certain. This is just about our young guys learning to play as a team, learn how to execute the system properly.

We're sucking, because the roster sucks. PERIOD. Better than last year for sure, but not .500 and above better yet. Need to jettison whoever's not happy and buying into the program, Melo especially.

Players frustrated after home loss.

Film at 11.

Man, wishful thinking is king around these parts.

I guess you want players that accept losing as another day at the office, no prob lets go hit the clubs and drown our sorrows. Because the leader of the team said he doesn't want guys to get comfortable with losing he's not buying in....smh, How do you come up with this stuff

I guess if your not winning a championship why worry about winning meaningless regular season games. Lets develop our young guys and teach them how to lose games and play with no effort

lol, still the same stuff? i guess it'll never stop.

This is the healthy kind of unhappy. You want to be ticked off that you keep losing winnable games. In this case Melo is properly expressing displeasure and as a leader of the team he has to set a tone for the younger guys, who may not understand the proper mentality to take in such a fast moving but long season. Games come so fast and these young guys can lose intensity and sense of purpose.

Very pleased to see these responses. When Melo is says he is unhappy and wants out is when Ill believe he is unhappy and wants out. Until then, the pycho analysis and so called reading of tea leves is just the stuff of bored drama queens hoping and emoting as Clyde might say

I've long held the theory that some fans on message boards can convince other fans of their pet fixations, somehow the universe will notice and make it more likely to occur.

Lack of any other explanation suggests it.

I think Melo is not pleased with his own performance and he should be.
He is not helping losing to became winning.
It also puts a doubt in his head if he is the player he once was.
He absolutely not and will never be.
Will he get it and redefine himself is to be seen.
But this doubts are a good start.
Other players we have should also understand that they are part of the team and the system and will be measured by the way they execute and fit in not by individual numbers.
I think it is normal team maturation process. Growing pains individually and collectively.

Yep! I knew it, nothing change we still have 3 head-coaches
1) Management
2) Melo
3) Fisher

Our starter lineup are the only players allowed to be in the same lineup each of our 22 games to build chemistry.
After Pat Riley, Ernie Grunfeld, n Dave Checketts, the new management and coach has never let our bench-players build a Gellin bench-unit to add winning depth off the bench like coach Holzman or Hubie Brown.
Fisher did not select 6 players for the starter-unit. Why?
Nor did Fisher select 6 bench-players for the 2nd-unit. Why?

Our 2nd-unit became a JOKE when Fisher start rotating 12 different players into the 2nd unit lineup (LMFAO at Phil/Fisher).
Our bench-players have to deal with being in a different lineup night after night, the confidence in the 2nd unit lineup drops with each new player added.

Who really cares anymore about what Melo think?
KP rookie performance has future star written on it ..
KP will have FA wanting to sign with us in offseason, plus a few veterans wanting to be traded to the Knicks at deadline.

Between KPs Euro connections and Melos domestic connections....The next few years will be the best time to build a championship team. As much as everybody hates melo he's still the main player teams worry about.

He looks like losing is killing him and he doesn't ever want to feel that way again. Pretty sure that is how you want your best player to react when the team loses a few in a row. Too bad he gives a sh@t.
