He took that from Rasheed Wallace when he was briefly with the team, but it got annoying since he did it every single time for years afterwards.
Melo does a lot for kids, with his philanthropy. But that wasnt a good example for the young fans.
Any evidence that any kids were harmed by the gesture ?
Harm shouldnt be the threshold. It being a bad example is good enough of a reason not to do it.
What's the bad example ?
Gun violence
I come on. The gesture is not a gun to the head. It's a three representing a three point shot in basketball. I think kids are smarter then adults sometimes. Especially when adults insist on thinking their making a deeper observation.
That gesture was around long before Melo. If he naively coopted it, it was a bad idea.
Let it go. You are taking the gesture to represent a gun to the head as if what a suicide gesture ? That's your interpretation. I don't think anyone else saw it like that. Don't think any kids saw it like that.
Not suicide, killing someone. No wonder you dont get it.
Killing someone or yourself is not the gesture. You can keep going at it but your interpretation is not shared by many. That's why I asked did kids get influenced by that gesture thinking about guns ? No because it's three fingers after a three point shot. And you hold your theoretically harmful gesture and hold against Melo for years. Give it up. Kids are smarter then adults sometimes
You're making it sound like I made this up. There have been articles, I believe an ESPN story about it. You can disagree, but the number one cause of children's death now is guns. Not hard to find another celebration.
Maybe you didn't make it up. But it was foolish then and foolish now. Why you keep going at it ? Talk about the game
Someone told me that there was even a chance that it would be interpreted that way, Id stop immediately, but thats just me.
You turned this into a debate...

The desperate last gasp of loss. Delicious.
Good finish Randle. This is next level stuff, hope he can keep it going into the playoffs.
First win in Toronto since 2015.

Gave him time to slow the game down. Knicks have to stop trying to nurse the clock at end of quarters. Never works. They need to make quick moves and attack as a team. Stop the iso plays.

It's funny how many people said JB was overpaid even though his valuation was about the same as FVV when he entered the market.🙄
F the haters rant cued up.
Maybe just mention that its Knicks first win at the Raptors since 2015. Have lots of picks, yoots, probably time to rebuild.

Knicks should learn from Cuban and extend Deuce now and learn from the Dallas error, lol. Deuce was loose as well
Fournier gave us some minutes - who woulda thunk?

The star of the Spanish team Hernangomez didn't play and the star of the French Team Fournier only played a little. Man the NBA is a whole different level of good over the European leagues.
Foook yeah. I won’t ever get tired of beating Toronto. The refs allowed them to fouls every time and we still pulled it out. I might just have to get a Brunson jersey
Trying to see a positive with h how bad we play closing out quarters, by the playoffs or play in, we should have the kinks worked out

I see you DJ!
Monica likes her leather pants.
Knicks have third best road record in the entire NBA. Barely behind Celtics and Nets. But .500 at MSG. That is their sin.
