Hope you're alright BRule. Figured you would be coming here talking smack about how Melo is an all time great!

[BRule]

At some point it will be accepted as fact.that KD is.a.top 10 player of.all time.

When he passes someone in the top 15, sure....or when he wins a ring.....or when his career is longer than 7 years......

He's having his best season all around season of his career....will go down as one of the greatest pure scorers in the game.....nothing new.

Its a joke how much John Wall keeps getting over looked.

Deron Williams and Damian Lillard over him on the Team-USA roster is a joke. I can understand Irving bc of his upside, but those other 2 is a joke.

He's playing real well this year. Can't really knock him at all. I would like to see him get his teammates more involved. He is an excellent passer when he passes. He should be getting 5 assists a game IMO.

Defensively he hasn't been as awful as he has in the past.

It makes sense for the KNicks to just sign him and hope they spend the rest of the money wisely.

Wall is much better than either of those two. If the Wizards had been healthy all year they would be firmly entrenched as the third best record in the east.

All he needs are rings. Then let the discussions begin.

Rings are kind of important....

Rings are kind of important....

I've always agreed with this.

So who thought that Milsap/Korver would be the best free agent signings this year?

Ferry did a really good job rebuilding that team. Its a shame Horford was hurt.

[NinersSBChamps]

Melo is a joke and will never win a damn thing at this level. Doesn't care about his teammates and is the prototypical "me" guy.

[thethe]

Do you guys think the Spurs run is over? There record against good teams is unbelievably poor. Is it just injuries or holding back?

If you take out Amares contract and get two quality players in here then it would be interesting. Knicks need a PG/C in the worst way.

Tell that to Dan Marino whose arguably the best pure passer of all-time, yet he has no rings.

Team game, boss.

Jury is still out on Ferry. His drafting skills need to be improved. Granted Mike Scott has looked decent this season, but John Jenkins may have been one of the worst selections in round 1 back when he got him. Milsap was a steal of a contract and he should be going to New Orleans. Korver is so much more than just a three point shooter too.

All that being said, the Hawks are stuck in neutral though. Not good enough to win in the east and not bad enough to get in the lottery. No big name free agent wants to play for this team either.

Cant count them out, never.

Honestly nothing more meaningless than regular season basketball. Pop and the gang will be fine come April.

Football =/= basketball

You need rings to be considered all time great in basketball.

He's going to ask for a huge contract and thus not be able to offer anyone else decent to New York. As long as he cashes in once more, that's all he cares about.

Knicks structured their contracts so that they are recycled at the same time. After next year the Knicks will have loads of money to spend even with a max deal to Melo.
