When the New York Knicks traded for Carmelo Anthony in 2011, fans believed Melo would bring a championship to the city, and revitalize Knicks basketball. What instead took place was an up and down roller-coaster filled with misery, drama, and losing. How did someone of Melo’s talent level leave New York with such little winning, and what could the Knicks have done better in building a contender? This is how the New York Knicks squandered talent, and failed to win a championship with Carmelo Anthony.

@Entername-md1ev Год назад

Three things went wrong for Melo’s time with the Knicks. 1. He forced the Nuggets to trade him at the deadline so the Knicks had to give up a bunch of assets to get him when he could’ve signed with New York in the offseason and play with all those assets they had surrendered to Denver 2. He couldn’t get along with Jeremy Lin. If he had a smaller ego, I genuinely believe they could’ve became a competitive team for a couple seasons 3.

@jacoblopez6046 2 года назад

Melo had the right to want to be "numero uno" as he was one of the NBAs BEST scorers at the time and already a superstar. The triangle offense would not have worked at the time when Phil was president (Please stop with that narrative lol). Especially not with the team we had and where the fast paced NBA was going at the time. It was a waste of time, and then to bring in 2 coaches in Fisher and Hornacek who NEVER ran the triangle in their coaching careers to just throw them in with minimal triangle training and say "well...make it work" was a failure.

@eksentrysyti 2 года назад

Melo wouldn't win for the simple fact that the only thing he brought to the table was inefficient offense. He jacked up a ton of shot attempts and has a career eFG of 48.5%, which is almost Westbrickian (46.8%). Compare that to Lebron (54.5%), KD (54.6%), Kawhi (54.7%) or Steph (58.1%) and it's clear to see how Carmelo hurts his team for individual stats (this is the list of championship winning players). Then add his disinterest in the defensive side and you see a recipe for disaster. He's a stat padder the same way Westbrook is, a lot of numbers in a particular category at the expense of team wins.

@CCEkeke Год назад

Also, Melo peaked early when he won the NCAA championship his freshman year. A year or two more of college ball could have helped iron out some of his weaknesses.

@aztn19 Год назад

@@CCEkeke I agree with part of that assessment. But while I don’t think he peaked in college - as he did have some great stat-padded seasons besides his deepest run in 2008-09, he definitely had a ceiling on how he wanted to play and that inflexibility was what made me often the lone Knicks fan dreading his arrival. All he did was jump shots - passing, defense and leadership wasn’t his thing. No team could win championships when their top player doesn’t want to play team ball; Melo HAD to be the guy, but didn’t want to adjust his style of play for anyone & every team he’s been on suffered ever since he left Syracuse.

Washington wasted Wall's prime, healthy years. Never got a backup PG that would remain with the team for more than a season (until they got Ish). Didn't have a G League affiliate, until 2018ish, and didn't value draft picks all that much, trading away 1st and 2nd rounders like hot potatoes (Gortat was a great addition though). And, they completely flipped their identity, going from defense first, to offense with defense optional (more like nonexistent). The sad part is that Wall, in a few exit interviews, mentioned that the front office should add a lob threat and/or a stretch big, to likely make his job easier and really mix things up on offense, but they never did it. Nor did they add any defenders after Ariza left, leaving Wall as the team's best defensive option.

As a Knicks fan I wish we could’ve won a title within the 2011-2013 years but we ran into the Celtics in 2011 got swept 2012 ran into the Heat loss 4-1 loss to Indiana 4-2 in 2013 and didn’t even make it in 2014 from Linsanity to Carmelo and the epic game against the bulls to Steve Novak the Knicks had a good amount of materials to win the East but never came through 😤 it’s Carmelo who I blame his selfish ways of handling the ball was the main reason we couldn’t go no where Jeramy Lin was doing so well but Carmelo wouldn’t let lin get the starlight and as for phill Jackson…😑 too much to talk about,oh and on the quick note SELL THE TEAM!!!!!

He just does not have the ability to play basketball as a team sport. You could see that back in his Nuggets days. He runs up the floor on offense and stands on one spot waiting to get the ball. he never participated in running plays, he literally stands waiting for someone to give him the ball then he shoots it. He has never played defense. You can almost see what possessions he will shoot and which times he decided he will just pass and stand like a statue till its time to go back on D. That and when he was in his prime he destroyed those nuggets teams by stopping all ball movement on offense and dribbling for half an hour then shooting it with a second left on the shot clock.

What gets overlooked is that he’s really bad in the playoffs, 4 playoff series wins in 17 years is bad and it’s not like the teams around him were bad either, the dudes lack of good efficiency (and really every other valuable attribute on the court) just came back to bite him
