There are enough delusional Melo lovers in the NY area to kiss his a** for the next 50 years and tell him he is the greatest player they've ever seen.

That is all Melo cares about so no reason for him to leave cushy lifestyle he has here -- he is already a WINNER.

and this is exactly what I don't understand about Melo in regards to iso ball or bully ball. He's GOT to know it doesn't work any more and that he's less effective doing it. If he wants the resurgence in NY, which I think he does, where is DadMelo or OlympicMelo?

did melo waive his no trade clause? or is this just a hypothetical trade?

No, these threads will re-occur for the next two or three years, like rhoids. Some people just can't get reading comprehension into their schedules, while others will just piss away the next few years posting about what will happen when Melo's contract expires

It's a way for the deranged, mentally deficient Melohaters to squeeze a little bit of stress pus out of their fissure of hate. It's a safety valve, really.


Especially after two game winning shots within the last two weeks.

And did I actually hear homer WallyWorld talking up Melo's effort on defending KAT?

Yea I dont know... I dont have an answer. Maybe he listed too much to these other players who talk about him being so hard to guard etc.. some mix of low IQ or overconfidence... take your pick?

That is all Melo cares about so no reason for him to leave cushy lifestyle he has here -- he is already a WINNER.

and those are balanced by the blind hating equally delusional Melo-haters who obsess about his contract, his hats, and think he's some kind of cancer and talentless player. So it all really works out doesnt it?

Melo is talented but very unbalanced basketball player.
