it just didn't fit well with melo, who refused to change at all and was a baby back bitch about everything

so does this mean Lin will completely suck without D'Antoni?
So you are admitting that he sucked before?

Amare's having by far his worse year since he was a rookie and he can't play D. He's part of the problem.

he's just getting old and not shooting as much (his FG% is down, for sure)

irrelevant. he's never played D

not in terms of coaching/style
they signed chandler to take care of amare's defensive problems. chandler fits perfectly. protects the rim, rebounds, and doesn't have an ego about scoring. amare shed a bit of his ego, too
it's melo who is being a bitch

I don't like Stephan A., but he called it on Mike and Mike this morning.

Exactly, and it's worked.. The problem with these Knicks isn't defense. It's offense. They're ranked 10th in defensive efficiency, but 23rd in offense.

but you just committed 85 mill to melo over the next 4 years.
you gave up the farm for melo.
i agree dude is totally a diva arse bitch, but its his team for better or worse and you need a coach to come in and coach to his strengths.

none of those dudes are on the same level as melo, i mean come on.

Melo is becoming a coach killer. George Karl hates his guts already.
How is mike Woodson gonna do any better? His teams in ATL always hit a wall and could never get over the hump.

Similar to Melo, I'm not sure you understand what Melo's actual level is. Scoring 30 on 29 shots isn't a very high level.

Carmelo would probably consider that an efficient game.
Last 6 games:
Jeremy Lin - 34-87, 39.1%; 7.33 Asts, 3.83 TOs
Carmelo Anthony - 42-108, 38.9%
J. R. Smith - 13-39, 30.0%
It would be one thing if Lin, Anthony, or Smith were stellar defenders. But all three of them are defensive liabilities, and Lin is the only one who expresses a desire to improve. (It is worth mentioning, though, that Lin's assist to turnover ratio has been decent over these past 6 losses.)
On top of their terrible shooting, poor defense, and inability to spread the ball around to teammates, Anthony and Smith are proven cancers in the locker room. I don't see how anyone can seriously defend Anthony. The guy is a vortex of despondency.

amare took a step back this year, but up until this year amare >>>>>>> melo
