Regardless of his net, they still made the postseason, he was a part of that regardless, and then he ended his career as the lakers arguable best shooter on a shitty lakers team that didn’t really build a good enough team and then they blackballed him out after he avg 13 off the bench as a solid shooter, they say his defense wasn’t good 😂😂😂 as if it matters when he’s jus out there for O, there’s players out there for D who suck on O but other players make up for that, why couldn’t that be said the same for Melo on defense?

Absolutely inexcusable for him not to even reach the finals. The winning formula slapped him in the face in the 08 Olympics.

He watched Bron sign 1+1 deals for what seemed like a decade in order to control his career path. Probably my favorite scorer behind Kobe and KD and it just feels like he left a lot out there on the court at the end.

When Phil Jackson was GM of Knicks, the fans and the media wanted him to come down and coach but he didn't and it's my speculation was that he didn't want to coach Melo because he knew Anthony didn't have "it."

Melo's one of those players that I hoped would eventually get a ring, even if he didn't play much. Just felt like he deserved it, despite making some less than ideal choices.

10:56-11:04 thank you for acknowledging this little bit that everyone seems to forget about with regards to the Melo trade. And it wasn't like the Nets were nowhere near a trade, they came dangerously close to one. It was eerily similar to the IRL trade, and it included Detroit sending Rip Hamilton out to join Melo and Billups in New Jersey.

Make a prism on Ovi. Prodigal son, play off choker, greatest goal scorer of all time

Man y’all really forget about how Good Melo was when he had braids on Denver. That was before his bully ball days.
