It would be really nice to watch Melo pull off a triple double

Melo just had the most complete, efficient half of his career, dare I say?

Yes it would.

8pts 8rebs 5ast in the first half.

Knicks end the second quarter on a 29-6 run.

MELO early passing really messed up the Wolves D!!! They were scared to come help!!!

TeamBall @ 12/16/2015 8:43 PM

Melo and KP at the 4 and 5 is looking better and better. I know Phil wants the tranditional big lineup but he can't ignore this.

nyknickzingis @ 12/16/2015 8:43 PM

What a show by the Knicks in that half. Seems practice and rest is all they needed.
And man, Porzingis. What kind of swatting was that? He seemed like he got Towns twice, Wiggins twice, 6 blocks in total but at least 3-4 more alterations.
Great D inside.

crzymdups @ 12/16/2015 8:44 PM

The lineup that went on that crazy run:

Calderon
Afflalo
Lance
Melo
KP

Knicks are REALLY REALLY good with KP at the 5 and Melo at the 4 against most teams.

Looks like the 3 days rest gave the team a chance to reboot, were looking like the first game of the season

Won't happen - but both Melo and Porzingis are on pace for triple doubles !!!! Amazing half.

Clean @ 12/16/2015 8:44 PM

I liked that play to end the half. It was essentially an ISO Melo but we disguised it well and had some movement.

Malcolm @ 12/16/2015 8:44 PM

I just continue to wait for Carmelo to have the Triangle conversion experience that Jordan and Kobe had (as described by Phil Jackson in his books).

I don't know if this is the night . . . but we can always hope.

SocraticBallin22 @ 12/16/2015 8:45 PM

Okay...fellas...I'll be the first one to say it...If KP can play center like he's doing tonight, we really don't need ROLO or his contract on this team. So far he really hasn't fit in with what we're trying to do. If I can trade away his contract for a 1st round pick and an expiring (or a young PG) for more cap space next year, I would do it. There I said it.

That's the FUTURE of this team, change out some of the 3-2-1 guys, and the next 4 years you can build around that. Give Phil a lot of credit, he really knew what he was doing.

And there's a 3! I like this Melo. This is... dare I say... leadership and unselfish play???

Exactly. Take what you they give you.

A very good one and he did not use too much energy, so you would thing he has a lot left in the tank for the second half.

Arguably the closest to playing a "Lebron type" game that I recall him playing.

yellowboy90 @ 12/16/2015 8:46 PM

Blah blah blah, will he get any second half ast?

blkexec @ 12/16/2015 8:46 PM

I have nothing negative to say.....That stinks. I'm not used to watching the knicks and not complain. Lets see if they come out with energy in the 3rd.....Thats the quarter that scares me.

I just started watching the 2nd quarter.....And I see my boy Seraphin got some burn......No Rolo......And KP protecting the rim........AA on fire........Melo flurting with a triple double? At this point, I'm happy with a win or lose. This is how this team will and should look next year!
