@@bakgammonu waste of space 😂😂😂 melo is a HOF

[@greyklopstock7155]

​@@bakgammonhe was a winner in college. He was competitive right out the gate in the NBA and was offered a GENERATIONAL contract. When Melo was on the national team, he was the leader of the pack and the voice that everyone listened to for a decade. When it came time to get big buckets, everyone turned to MELO. He was given a no trade clause cause the Knicks wanted him SO BAD that they wanted to give the nuggets an offer they couldn't refuse. His two main teammates, mostly Amare Stodamire, struggled to stay healthy, and Melo even took a $5m pay cut on his first big contract with the Knicks so they could fill out the roster. Melo was a winner at every level and his TEAMS failed him. When he was on teams that were actually making good effort to win, making smart decisions, Melo rose to the occasion

Love Melo's appreciation for the global game of basketball! Like he said, if you asked him 15 y ago, he'd take the ring, now he's super proud of his medals. Goes to show you how much we have moved forward in terms of global basketball. Just compare 92 with this y Olympics.

Olympic Melo will always be goated. I wanted him to win an NBA title but that Olympic gold medal probably hit different for him and I respect that. Also, Roundball Rock didnt hit the same when Fox played it for their college basketball coverage the last few years. Hearing it on NBC's coverage of the Olympics made it feel and sound better

I have always been a Melo fan. I'm in Denver, and hated how they treated him. Now, seeing him as grown man, and see him at the Olympics made me see him in a totally new way. His love for the game and those players, and the respect he showed and inspiration he gave his boys to win that game. I'm so very proud of him, and for him. He deserves that love and all the flowers.
