Knicks still...

[DJ Fieri]

And MJ averaged 5.3 apg.

MJ and Kobe were also far superior defenders. I don't think Melo even knew how to spell defense.

Right?

Pasta is crazy.

Didn't Melo once say he thought Dee Fense worked at Hooters?

 

[Pastafazul]

Never posted melo was as good a player as those 2, you said he was a chucker, well, he was one hellava one!

Weren’t you once a whale?

Crazy smart!!!

Melo played tenacious D at times!!

How do you expect your only offense to give it all defensively? Tough on legs no?

on another note. Kobe ever play man to man on LeBron?

Melo's such a great defender he never made an all defensive team. Maybe next you'll say he's a clutch shooter?

Lebron's a SF. Kobe was a SG. How dumb are you? SG's don't normally guard SF's.

Holy shit that's your idea of trolling?

I hope that you’re not trying to make a living out of this.. where did I post he was a great defender. Lol.

"melo played tenacious D at times!!" <----your own words

Melo couldn't play tenacious defense on your videogame system.

 

[trojanfan12]

[Pastafazul]

Actually, I said he was a great defender, and should be on the all time list!! Isn’t that right shamu?

 

[Pastafazul]

Lol, I knew of melo’s lackadaisical D rep before he came to NY. Don’t you think the media got on him for that right off the bat. That’s why fans were pizzed about the big contract! But, here he tried to play tough D, did he play it consistently. NO! Still doesn’t take away from his superstar status. And that comes from the writers, not me!

[Wamu]

Hilarious that pasta thinks Melo was some kinda good defender at any point in his career.

 

[trojanfan12]

I mean, if you consider wanting the other team to shoot as quickly as possible, so you can get the ball for another chance to shoot and sometimes they miss those shots, to be "trying to play great defense".

Then yeah, I guess you could say he tried to play great defense.

 

[Pastafazul]

How much emphasis did D’Antoni put on defense as coach ?

 

[Pastafazul]

Hmmm. Is that Trevor Ariza , former Knick . 2009 champion laker team?

So...

Let me get this straight.

You constantly have criticized the Knicks over the years about not playing hard and not playing fundamental basketball.

But, you think it is okay for Melo to not play hard all the time and ok to not listen to his coaches because he could score.

Did your coaches allow the star player to do whatever he wanted? Is that not precisely what you have been criticizing this generation of NBA players for?

I am literally shocked that you like Carmelo Anthony given all our conversation. He is like the poster child for selfish, entitled play.

Where the Fack have I expressed any love for Carmelo Anthony????

Answer a facking question before posting more exaggerated bull shoot taken totally out of context.

did D’Antoni put any emphasis on defense? Answer is no. So you think melo gonna give a shite?

They say you could spot D’Antoni with “fense” and he still would not know what defense was! Ya think maybe after 5 stints as HC without a ring has anything to do with that? Probably not with you!

Was D'Antoni the only coach Melo ever had?
