YUP, and they are playing exactly like this is whats happening behind the seemss, you don't scratch no one from a game 10 mins before..He was out there warming up, and you would be quick to disclose a injury..

PHILLY JACK..smh

He warmed up?

No, he didn't. He never showed up.

If Rose is jumping ship... that's a really bad sign. You have to bench him or trade him.

seems like there is a huge division within this team. jennings has been saying it all year long... i think melo and rose being ballstoppers is bothering alot of guys. this team has a lot of guys that can move the ball around the court (jennings, lee, kp, noah, baker, hernangomez, oquinn) i'd imagine these guys are tired of melo and rose just pounding the ball into the court (and playing no defense)

Think the Rose situation has something to do with this
When things like that happen - an important part of the team just doesn't show up without a single call or anything it can affect the team considerably.

It doesn't make sense. Rose worked so hard to get back on the court. Also it is a contract year.

Him not showing up or contacting team officials is extremely unprofessional
I'm assuming there is nothing wrong with him, in which case, there just could have been something brewing behind the scenes.

Yeah, why does it always feel like the team is decent... and then the wheels coming flying right the hell off. Other teams... their seasons don't implode like this midway. It seems to happen to us all the time.

Is that why the Knicks seemingly gets blown out in the second quarter of games when Melo leaves the game?

Don't know if this guys is credible at all but saw this on twitter.
nyknickzingis @ 1/9/2017 9:30 PM
Was he there for morning shoot around?
Welpee @ 1/9/2017 9:32 PM
If the Knicks hadn't been playing like this for the past month I would've speculated that Rose being a no-show had the team unfocused for this game. However, given the way they've played lately I wouldn't grant them this excuse tonight.

First, Rose disappeared before the game, then the Knicks disappeared during the game.

I'll keep this clean but the Knicks are unintelligent, selfish, lackadaisical, and unprofessional. Davis' injury will be the only reason we don't lose by 40 tonight. I haven't been this disgusted and discouraged with this franchise in quite a while.

The Rose situation/speculation is just icing on the cake.

I think you are right. It did come up that Peter Vecsey follows the guy that tweeted it.

I hope he does retire. At least then He won't be resigned this summer.

Is there any chance he can get Melo to retire with him?

I am sorry but I am done with this team until Melo is traded.

This malaise has been around the team since he got here except for one season when Kidd led the team.

Melo. is the constant. The other constant is awful play on D and offense.
