NBA: Phil Jackson Responds To JR Smith’s Posts "we are glad for JR, Shump, Pablo"

[Mt. Yukon]

Right. And that's the thing. NO franchise player winning 35 games. Shit man the NBA has it to where that shit can't even happen I don't even know how the fuck Melo did it. With all the favorable calls superstars get.......you have no excuse to atleast not be a .500 team and in the East you should be in the post season.

James Harden ain't never gonna have no 37 game win season. Healthy, KD or Westbrook not. Bron not. Steph not. Shit Anthony Davis won't again.

We can't defend no 37 win shit man not in the East. I can see if you was in the West.....but even Melo in his prime was getting Denver past that shit.

Some great players get stuck with bad organizations. Barkley had some terrible years in Philly, Nique in ATL. It happens. Love was the shit in Minnesota on a shitty squad. ESPN has made it do if you're on a bad team it must mean you're not elite. It ain't that simple. Outside Melo what "Star" isnt playing with another star that makes this apply??? Hell lets keep it all the way funky. Aside from an old Iverson, and a past his prime Chauncy who has Melo ever really played with with??? Line up the Allstar appearances from Brons supporting casts, and Melos and see if theyre remotely equal...

 

[D-TOWN REP]

Melo gonna get him that Gary Payton/Antoine Walker ring later on

That Mitch Richmond ring

That Glen Rice ring

Peja stojakovic ass nigga

 

[M.H.C.]

Yall shitting on Melo for no reason. Melo took a mediocre Nuggets team to the playoffs every year since he was drafted in the West. And a mediocre Knicks squad as well. That has to count for something.

Who's fault is that though? NO one put a gun to his head to not only sign with the Knicks but RE-SIGN with them too. And Bron prior to playing with Wade and Bosh was getting his squad to the Finals in the East. Shit Wade as well.

And Chauncey wasn't past his prime. He had some damn good years with the Nuggets.

Can't say we were great. Nigga we lost in the first round every year. We weren't trash though. No never that.

Man Nuggets mediocre now?

Billups, Nene, Affalo, Kenyon, Melo, JR, Lawson,Birdman.....that shit is a lot better than with Lebron out here with now with a hobbled Kyrie Irving and a hurt Kevin Love.

 

[dtownsfinest]

Oh now the Nuggets mediocre?

They'll say anything to defend Melo.

And MHC Is the worst because just this offseason he was talking about how the Nuggets were going to take the league by STORM and that roster didn't look nearly as good this year as it did when Melo was there. Now they mediocre.

It looks mediocre in 2014 but 5 or 6 years ago those dudes were solid basketball players.

While I do agree with that man the team was ass man.

I rock with the players on your team....but y'all missing a #1 and #2. You can't win in this league with Ty Lawson and Wilson Chandler as your best players. Not in the West. You can't play that shit out there.

Ty does need help



He nice tho

 

[Chitownheadbusa]

Both of them have skills...buts lets keep it 100....Lebron is making them look good.

If you put any one of them guys on a team whereas they DIDNT have a player of LBJ's caliber next to them....then both of them would just be your average NBA player.

Lebron made players like Iman and JR look like stars...and made former stars like Bosh and Love look irrelevant more times than not.

Different teams..different responsibilities...It happens.........

 

[dtownsfinest]

I rock with Ty. I like the Nuggets squad. They missing their first two options though. They need a #1 and a #2 to be a legit threat in the West. I don't know what their salary cap situation looks like but hypothetically give them Lamarcus Aldridge and a Monta Ellis.....they'd be a far better squad.

Hawks struggling now with something similar. Hawks don't have a legit #1 on their squad.

 

[D-TOWN REP]

Jimmy!!!

I'm sorry enough is enough!!

I will not defend this 2007 Michael Finley with the Spurs ass nigga no mo!!

It's all good who that contract is up he will link up with Anthony Davis m

A Chicago niggu will get him his chip

Lebron saved them niggas

Hold on....did you just list everyone who was taken after the 4th pick? How about you list everyone after the 4th pick that the Knicks have drafted.

 

[A to Dah K]

they went to the playoffs while ON THE KNICKS

they went to the 2nd round while on the knicks

that's what im not understanding

Melo hurt= no playoffs and lottery for the knicks

Melo healthy = playoff spot for the knicks with these same people.. its proven as fact

Second round aint shit

I am just saying there is "Hope"

Knicks been selling hope damn near 40 years

Yeah,but that Earl the Pearl and Clyde backcourt was nice!!....

Who's fault is that though? NO one put a gun to his head to not only sign with the Knicks but RE-SIGN with them too. And Bron prior to playing with Wade and Bosh was getting his squad to the Finals in the East. Shit Wade as well.

And Chauncey wasn't past his prime. He had some damn good years with the Nuggets.

Bruh. Bron was getting gutted by San Antonio and Boston before he got help. Lets stop with the Bron mythology. I like both players, but people dont call it even. Bron needed help, just like anyone else. Yet people see Melos struggles and pin it all on him. Bui who has he had. Damn near every good team in the league has 2 or 3 very good players. Melo has had???... Not saying he couldnt have jumped on a winning team, but the fact still remains he hasnt played with top tier talent and Bron has. Thats the difference in their playoff success, not their individual talent level.

It's the Knicks man.

 

[babygwirl18]

People love to hate on Carmelo. Remember when people were saying that trading him for Wilson chandler, Danilo Gallinari, guard Raymond Felton and center Timofey Mozgov Was a bad trade? Where are all those people now? Would the Knicks have a better future with those bums? Especially since they would have had to overpay them as the teams 'star' players?

The Knicks are a bad organization, and Melo is the one bright spot on the team. anyone that thinks it's a good idea to not give max money to one of the best scorers in the nba is smoking crack.

The Knicks need to accept melo for who he is and build a team around him. Bring in one more star and some young talent from the draft and a few role players and they might be able to turn things around. Will they win a championship with him? Maybe not, but he is our best chance at it.

 

[playahaitian]

statistically JR was actually getting better numbers in NY

i just can't explain it.

 

[vandamation]

Let me start by saying this... There is talent BEYOND THE FIRST 3 picks in this draft and even though we wont get my guy Townes... or probably even Mudiay... I'll take Winslow, Cauley-Stein or even D. Russell in a HEARTBEAT...

As far as Phil goes... Unfortunately, one of his character flaws is that he always addresses SMALL SHIT... and he addresses SMALL SHIT with an LARGE HINT OF BITCHASSNESS...
AN 11X CHAMP HAS NO BUSINESS ADDRESSING A JR SMITH TWEET... PERIOD!!!! END OF STORY!!!!...
PHIL IS STILL ON THE CLOCK THOUGH... SO I'LL STILL BE PATIENT.

Now... When it comes to Melo...
WHY DO YOU NIGGAS KEEP ACTING LIKE MELO WAS BILLED TO BE BETTER THAN LEBRON???

NEWSFLASH!!!!!

LEBRON IS BETTER THAN MELO!!!!

Lebron gives off THE ILLUSION OF MAKING PEOPLE BETTER BY TAKING THE WEIGHT OFF OF CERTAIN GUYS.

Melo, on the other hand, will take and make a clutch shot.

BUT... Some of niggas on here talk like Melo SUCKS...

You know what the difference between Paul Pierce and Carmelo Anthony is... KG... and JESUS SHUTTERSWORTH...

Melo's problem is... He got a lot of money from one of the SHITTIEST OWNERS IN SPORTS...

We Knicks fans have an owner who's the equivalent of THE FAT BITCH WHO GIVES GOOD HEAD AND GETS PASSED AROUND... BUT NOBODY WANTS TO WIFE HER OR UPGRADE HER... AND PHIL IS THE NEXT NIGGA UP IN HER MOUTH... AND THAT'S MY BIGGEST FEAR. I HOPE I'M WRONG... BUT I'M PROBABLY NOT...





















































































































































GO BIG BLUE...

JR look like a damn all star (NY forgets he was 6 man of the year)
it just LOOKS like he is better but none of the numbers support it.

Lebron got that Jordan effect making dudes like BJ Armstrong look like 10 million a year players.

 

[shaddyvillethug]

Frank isola owns you nigga daily

I woulda offend riley 100 million too

Phil made the easiest 60 million buy playing NBA association 2k with the Knicks famo

 

[Rollie_Fingaz]

Can't say we were great. Nigga we lost in the first round every year. We weren't trash though. No never that.

A lot of times yall ran into the eventual NBA champs in the first round.

 

[shaddyvillethug]

Phil ain't even go to the combine or draft lottery

Straight raping the KnicKs

And then Isiah wants seconds with Dolan mouth
