And the bad thing is that these two will probably be starters/players on the ASG.
Talk about Chemistry issues...we might as well give Kobe, CP3 and Co the next ASG win...I'm tired of seeing the West win.
We have the regular rivalry with Wade and LeBron...NOW?
Enter Melo and KG.
Melo KNOWS better than this....whether or not we all agree with what was "allegedly" said...most NBA players know that KG talks MUCH trash.
The BEST PLAYERS EVER talked trash, too:
Jordan...Larry...
Melo will NEVER achieve much in the NBA if he allows KG (or anyone else, for that matter) to get into his head. As the Knicks best player by far - NY needs him.
The game of Basketball is mostly mental...C'mon, Melo!
KG is too old for all this on the court he'll kill you obviously but have a feeling at the AS game he will probably be the bigger man, dap him up and tell him my bad "I'm still gonna bust your chops but wont go that far next time." They already made up supposedly.
I see your point, but the day KG stops talking trash he might as well hang up his sneakers. He's ALWAYS looking for an edge - and he got one.
That Knick win was SUPER important for BOS..we now have a Chemistry-Enhancing, Momentum-Building three game winning streak.
I'm glad KG did what he thought he had to do...KG sacrificed looking good for the TEAM.
That game was important.
If KG is still playing when he's forty I'd hope he still has his edge, lol.
Absolutely, GF, (TP) ... totally agree with this. KG is a tough competitor, as Larry Bird was, and Larry talked as much trash as anyone in the NBA, (then or now), and backed it up, as KG does.
If Melo can't stand the heat, what the heck is he doing in the NBA?
The fact that the media and Carmelo made anything of this is just absurd, and I absolutely
love that Big Ticket got inside Carmelo's head like that, and I hope he continues to do so.
The best win of the year, IMHO, for that and many other reasons.
