    The highlight of last season for the Knicks, if there was one, was Melo scoring 62 (franchise record) in a game. ... All those minutes he gave the Knicks contributed to a 37-win team that didn't make the playoffs (but had arguably as much, or more talent without Melo, as say Lebron had in Cleveland with a team that won 66 games). What cracked me up was that I just googled that 62-point game to make sure I was correctly remembering the doldrums they were in at the time, and the link I clicked on was the Daily News story. The lede was, "Let’s just say that Carmelo Anthony’s body language improved dramatically on Friday night. As did his scoring average."

    The key to wins is obviously body language, not talent.

    You are what your record says you are.
    Carmelo is A-Rod without the juice

    Maybe he realizes this isn't going to happen, but if Carmelo really wants to be remembered/praised forever, just win one title in New York (and I'm not saying he's bad because he hasn't won a title). No one will ever shut up about it. Just ask Joe Namath. That is a surefire way to go down as a legend, and in the article he's talking about anything and everything else.

    Has nothing to do with love for Carmelo. I hate lazy narratives and cliches.

    What's lazy about it? I don't like Carmelo. I don't like his game. Don't think a team can ever win with Carmelo is their feature player.
    It's my right to think that way and his body of work in The NBA has proven my thinking out.

    The Knicks should sign Gerry McNamara. Carmelo's never won anything without him.

    The Knicks have 1 playoff series win in his 4 years (soon to be 5) with the Knicks. THey couldnt be much worse without him
