HammerTime Posted April 14, 2017 Author Share Posted April 14, 2017 Al IannazzoneVerified account @Al_Iannazzone Phil said the triangle hasn't worked because "we've faced resistance." Implied that was Melo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumper_Dad Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Is Melo a Free Agent or are they looking to unload him in a trade? If trade, how much value does he have? How high of a draft pick would you give up to get Melo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HammerTime Posted April 15, 2017 Author Share Posted April 15, 2017 He's not a FA and has a no trade clause. I'd say someone will give a first rounder for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurplePride92 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Is it possible that Carmelo could be any more unmanageable? If we're going to be real, Phil put in a coach who has no clue how to run the triangle, Jeff Hornacek and then gave him a player who never adapted to the triangle, Melo...gave him an injury prone shoot first PG who can't run the triangle....Derrick Rose and surrounded him with an injury prone draft pick...Kristaps Porzingis, Courtney Lee, Joakim Noah(how much does Joakim make), Ron Baker, Guillermo Hernangomez, Kyle O'Quinn, Justin Holiday, Lance Thomas....I mean seriously...we're going to blame Carmelo for the Knicks woes when Phil built this team?

PurplePride92 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 FWIW, Porzingis skipped his exit interviews because he said he couldn't stand the drama of the Knicks anymore. Melo went to his didn't he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEERFAN Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 I think it's pathetic for a GM to demand a coach run a certain offense. Total toxicity starting from the top inside MSG. 45 plus years since a title in the Big Apple and no hope any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice of Reason Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Question ... not trying to make a statement against Carmello. Hasn't he been a problem on other teams prior to joining the Knicks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
