It has been Carmelo's team ever since he got there and they would've had to "live and die" with him even if the turnover machine was healthy.

No, he pretty much bashes who or whatever is trending at the moment. Basically, he's a hater. I enjoy it, though.

And what exactly is trending??? Lin hasn't done much for awhile now and is now on the shelf for almost 2 months and the Knicks are a below .500 club.

I won't lie, it was a fun story but the people hyping Lin up like he's the next superstar were on acid. He's a dime a dozen NBA player, so is Jimmy Fredette...who was a star in college. A lot of guys in the NBA have the ability to shoot from beyond the arc.

Lin got his assists but people would much rather have him pass it up then shoot it. So if Amare got some easy baskets teams could live with it. But they were beating terrible competition just as well.

Oh well, he got us MSG back....so I admit I didn't get to see the beginning few games of his run.

Hilarious, in my NBA 2K12 My Player mode season which I had to restart, Lin is "considering free agency".

Was reading over tweets as they fly by while listening to baseball games and watching the Masters, and someone said Melo hit a big time three. Good for him. Back to watching golf

Weird, weird season in NYC

Knicks went 7-1 with Lin while Melo was out

Knicks went 2-8 with both Lin and Melo under Dantoni

Knicks went 6-1 with Lin and Melo under Woodson

Knicks are 5-2 with just Melo, and Amare and Lin injured

I'm sure most Knick fans know this, but having Amare and Melo on the floor at the same time is a cancer. Melo's effort on defense will break down if he's not being fed the ball every other possession. To this day I still question the Melo trade, it feels like a knee jerk reaction since we couldn't get Lebron.

People shouldn't really question the Knicks-Nuggets trade anymore from the Knicks' POV b/c everything they lost from deal they have, over the passage of time, replaced.

If this team was healthy(aka having Lin & Amare together back the mix), it would be the best team they've had over these 2 seasons before or after the trade.

The Knicks pulled one out today.

Amare played a pretty decent game considering the injury, but he was stripped so often under the rim that I lost count.

Watching Landry Fields play big minutes makes me think I could possibly make an NBA roster.

I thought Melo would miss all those last minute free throws and then the Heat would win.

Would have been lol worthy.

Jesus, do Knick fans ever have utterly low standards. Although, going 4,000+ days without a playoff victory will do that to some people, I guess.

The Knicks arent afraid of no luxury tax. Lin or no Lin they are a long way from being a contender.

Stay classy Knicks

Across Las Vegas on Saturday, Rockets officials and couriers fanned out trying to deliver Jeremy Lin’s offer sheet to the Knicks in what has become an odd bit of NBA front office hide and seek.

Handing over the paper work has proved as difficult as reaching a deal to land Dwight Howard.

The Rockets have tried to deliver the offer sheet to the Knicks since Friday afternoon, but they had eluded their efforts, holding up the start of the three-day clock to match the offer or let Lin go to the Rockets, according to a person familiar with the process.

The Rockets had called and asked where they could deliver the offer sheet but were told that information would not be shared. By Friday evening, a courier called the hotel room of a Knicks official but did not get an answer. Roughly 30 minutes later, a front desk clerk reached him but was told the Knicks were not taking deliveries and that he would not come to the front desk to pick up a package.

The Rockets sent representatives to the Knicks practice on Friday and to the game on Saturday but could not find Knicks general manager Glen Grunwald.

The offer sheet was FedExed to the Knicks’ New York office and will have the receipt forwarded to the league office, but league officials said that until it can be shown that the Knicks have the offer sheet in hand, the clock on the Knicks’ three-day period to match would not begin.

The gamesmanship, though unusual, will not last. Having the offer sheet in the Knicks New York office will eventually suffice. It is expected that in time it would be delivered in Las Vegas. But for more than 24 hours, the Rockets have been unable to connect on what is normally an easy pass.

That and half his posts sound read like they are coming from a 10 year old.

If it's a gimmick, then hats off to him. If not.....yikes.
