@@RobbieStacks90 Melo drived and made the defender lose his balance and pulled up from mid to win the game, you act like it was a wide open look w/ no one around him. Melo earned that bucket, just join a circus already if you wanna keep clowning it up. 😂😂
Zenigundam. Wide open or defended a clutch shot is a clutch shot. He’s done it before. He’s gotten better on defense to say Melo don’t belong in the league is saying over 400 players don’t belong in the leagues because there’s not 400 players better than Melo there’s not 50 players in the NBA now that are better than Melo.
He was blackballed HARD. I'm still kinda shocked they let him back in. I guess he apologized to some powerful people for something he did. We don't know.
A lot of back peddling going on here. What happens when people who DON’T know basketball open they mouth and give opinions just for clicks or to side with mass of ignorant non athletic people 🤨🤦🏽♂️
as a melo hater backpeddling how??. the true is mo was stinking up the joint in houston and okc bricking shots and out of shape. honestly the time off was the best thing to happen to him to regroup himself
@@dennisthemenace855 missing the playoffs 4 5 years in a row. joining two top 5 players in his prime. playing well on aosing team in the blazers now all of a sudden everybody was wrong about melo goodness 😂👍🏿
I am not a Melo fan but anyone who is surprised by Melo scoring 20+ and hitting a game winner clearly doesn’t know basketball. There was literally no reason that he shouldn’t have been playing during all that time he was out of the league. I swear someone must have some dirt on him. There’s no other reason he should’ve been out of the league.
Impossinle to list a specific number, but A lot of people. Even if it was a little but of people, the main thing is that the media was pushing this narrative. The media controls how majority think. Its literally a "well if theyre saying it on tv then it must be true" type of thing
At least mention that portland is destroyed by injuries, besides Nurkic being out, they lost their best defender in zach collins, they also lost their spark plug 3rd scorer Rodney hood out for the year, they also lost young prospect who played well in Skaal , this team can be super dangerous once both Nurkic and collins comes back in mid February, if they keep whiteside who is a shot blocking monster
And these are trained professionals? Bring back the players we lost( , especially Nursic) along side of Melo, Dame & McCallum, and we're having a different conversation 👊 I don't understand why these guys aren't bringing that up? But yet I do... it's all about these Lakers and what they assembled/bought🤔 to be were they are at. They won't win a championship in my opinion, and look for the second half of the season to go the Blazers way, I still think we finish 6 when Nursic comes back.✌️👊🙏🏼
@@Willworld. when we got to flex G league players to have a functional roster rn, I'm not expecting the Blazers to do that stupendous. Have you seen Moses Brown?
ESPN covered Carmelo everyday that he wasn't on a team, and now I rarely find videos discussing him. Where is Max? Get Up? Amin? And everyone else that said he wasn't good enough to be on a team. Do y'all remember ESPN ran that lowlight reel of him missing shots? Although it is lame to ruin someone reputation and keep the, unemployed, all I want these people to do is congratulate him for bouncing back.
Jamal BIG FACT. He was the leading topic in the media every single when they were clowning him & defaming him but when he plays like himself they save it for “final topic of the day”
Melo is and has been one of those people that regardless of what he does on the court people will find something negative to say and try to diminish what has doing. That's just how it is.
@@kdp1696 His defensive rating this season is 112.3, and since I can tell you don't have a clue about analytics and advanced stats, I'll just say that's some pretty bad defense.
Not any more injured than the next team. Every team has injuries here and there. Dame, CJ, Hassan been fine all year long. Just role players that are banged up. Besides, Hassan arguably been their best player and the guys hurt Nurkic, Collins, Skal will take away his minutes when they come back so its actually a blessing in disguise theyre hurt.
They have they’re 2 starting big men injured and replaced them with whiteside which is another nonscoring option.. whiteside is the exact opposite of that they need at center. He can only screen and roll. Dame and CJ needs a big that can pick and pop to open up the lane for them or for the big to shoot a 3
@@savbeatz870 Um, no. They need a big who gets offensive rebounds, catches lobs, sets screens. A big shooting a 3 is a 3 thats not being taken by Dame or CJ or Melo. Bad shot. You cant have 5 guys standing on the perimeter behind the line.
Giancarlo Stoudemire when they’re team is healthy melo will be the 3. Collins at the 4 joker at the 5. A big that can pick and pop will def spread the floor and there will still be 1 big in the paint...they’ll get more shooting fouls too
The way Melo is playing right now his body and conditions is at 95 percent his health is almost at 100 percent that is scary he's almost back to his old self.
Why yall ain't talk about the Blazer's injuries. Three starters are out plus a vital bench player. Nurk, Hood, Collins and Skal. Y'all still hating. Yall can't even help it. Sorry azzes!!
Thing is, Hassan arguably been the best player and when Nurk, Collins come back, it takes away Hassan playing time, so it actually hurts them not helps them.Besides, every team has injuries like that. Three best players been healthy all year. Stop it
League is kinda whack now. It’s literally only 4-6 good teams out of 30?! And melo better than 90% of those players and he 35 and was out league for a year?!?! These dudes just make too much money, that’s the cause
Are these guys unaware that almost half of the blazers roster is injured? Nurkic (out) Rodney hood (out) Zach Collins (out) Skal Labissiere (out) and Pau Gasol was so injured that he was forced to retire lol. This isn't the team that was supposed to be out there every night. That's why they suck. They got low minute bench players playing 30 minutes a game
The Media are a bunch of Copycats. One person say someone is bad everyone Cosigns and then someone say he is Great and then they Cosign that. Get ur own opinion
Carmelo can still average 25+ a game he is just getting warmed up... I just wish he was with a team that had a chance to win a championship... if Melo wentbto the warriors that would have made better sense
Proving hes still clutch? He always was clutch, only reason melo has no rings is because he chased a bag in New York and they couldnt pay anyone else around him to contribute.
the Blazers have struggled a lot, no doubt. But this win did not snap a 4 game losing streak. The Blazers had lost ONE game in a row (Miami)... if you're going to make factual statements on a national show, get your facts straight, smh
Clutch.......on a team that is not making the playoffs!!!!!! I over-stand he hit a game winner but please don’t get carried away. When the Raptors are at full strength it will be a different out come. He plays no defence an when he don’t get the ball he sulks not good body language
You people at ESPN make me sick. Why don't you mention that the Blazers have a bunch of injuries that are killing their season (Collins, Nurkic, Hood, Gasol plus Dame and Skal were out a few games). They're not under achieving.
Melo can still play, but he hasn't dramatically fixed anything the Blazers are going thru. He can't defend very well, & he's still about a 41% scorer. They need perimeter defense badly. Why did they let go of Aminu & Harkless again?
Golic is a dinosaur , that morning show sucks. His son sucks too. Pleade update the show. The other mike is soo much better. Never realized it until they seperated it. Its like listening to the great grampa show. Sorry to be so hateful but its true. Lastly golic has sucked away the coolness wingo had once upon a time
Because of this new platform and speaking, everybody is on the bandwagon for attention and ratings. Who is the organization are people who actually creates negativity and false information about professional players, "THE MEDIA, and Alot of Talk Shows, Full of individual so called Analyst, that don't really know much about Any of these Professional Sports, nor the Players that are playing the games, other than stats. That's why there's usually always at least One professional player sitting on the panels. All that should Change, where the only host of Analyst that is televised, should be directed by those that actually have played.
Allen Iverson should of took the Melo route as far as finally humbling yourself enough to come off the bench for a team to continue playing what you love.
He hits a game winner and now he's clutch and now yall praise him? The media is a clown show. Melo is still a good player, but he's no longer great. There wasnt a good reason why he put out of the league but let's not pretend like he's a savior
