Why Carmelo’s Knicks Failed 

this is accurate but he is so insanely boring to watched because he littlerally has no emotion. hes just so monotone. I can only watch a couple of his videos a month

I agree but he literally can’t speak

@@itsLokooo hes like a monotone secret base

@@itsLokooo cause you are used to these annoying loud ass youtubers

@@itsLokooo it’s good background noise

Say it louder for the people in the back

Yeah but he says stuff too early. He called the heat done after 2021 when they were one missed shot away from the finals this year. And his Celtics thing after 2021 aged horribly. He’s already On the downfall Of harden who’s like 32 and still putting up amazing stats. And his Houston rockets thing was incorrect. The warriors were just the better team the rockets didn’t fail

@@ACLA23 the heat and celtics vids may have been made too soon but in his defense those teams were looking rough when he posted the vids. hardens career has been on a bit of a downward spiral recently tho, I expect him to have a bounce back season this year. but if he was still the same harden we got used to seeing in houston or the beginning of brooklyn, he’d have nothing to bounce back from. and idk if I’d call hardens time in houston a failure but I wouldn’t call it a complete success either, he had a chance to beat the warriors in game 7 and he choked w no CP3 to back him up.

@@ACLA23 hater

@@jxmmykriminallive harden is absolutely a playoff choke artist. His numbers in elimination games are staggeringly bad.

Oh fr

He just has such a bad voice and no emotion

Players wouldn’t buy in. They see the triangle as outdated but Kerr uses a ton of triangle concepts in his system and we’ve seen how well that’s worked

I disagree, I just think he played in a slightly weaker era to the one we wake up to now which made him have to be a #1 option . A lot of dudes (not him) who were #1s pretty consistently would be #3s or #4s now, or were on winning teams

@@CliqueClips I can see what your saying. But saying that number one options then will be third or fourth string now I can see is true but I don't think it's because they are not as good as players now but rather the idea of what makes a team win has changed. If you bring in the system of the 2000s, I still think it'll work. Cases like Isaiah Thomas and the Celtics and even though slightly different since they shoot a lot threes, James Harden and the rockets. The flaw in that system is that there can only be one lone star that is very good at offense and everyone else has be good at defense. If either don't do their job, they will likely lose or have a narrow win. That's why the system today is much more safer for teams.

Any player whose game is heavily ISO based will have a very hard time having success as a number 1 option in the modern nba. Especially when you don’t play defense.

@@Romanus- Kevin Durant

@@bearwithme9433 perfect example. He played a motion based system in GSW and won. Played iso heavy this year, got swept by the Celtics

True 💀😭

Jeremy Lin got cut because he's not that good lmao. Carmelo was definitely too selfish, but the idea that he derailed Lin's career is insane and far too popular. Linsanity was fun to watch, but it only happened because nobody knew who he was so teams didn't know how to guard him. The second teams figured him out, he crumbled.

@@turtle7459 didnt he get injured, a couple games after linsanity, then signed with the rockets, who got james harden

@@turtle7459 I would say that it at least plays a role in his downfall. The knicks had a culture around them that respected him. He had good chemistry with his teammates and he fit with the play style. He was recognized. Any other team he played for he was solid, a couple of great games scattered around, but never the same since he was not considered a legit star.

The Knicks had their best season under carmelo the year after Lin left soooo what are you talking about?

@@Puruvian Yep, he missed the last month or two of the season and had nagging injuries afterward iirc

Bingo. Insanely dumb move by Melo to not just wait one season. Destroyed his chances of ever making a real playoff run bc he was so impatient.

@@Romanus- no he wanted the guaranteed extra year

@@Visual_Ghoul regardless, stupid decision.

x1000%

Carmelo Anthony would be a normal name if he wasnt that good he made the name 😂 Bro is top 10 in all time points you dont just do that lol

Exactly

Ghey

Hell na

What you just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever read. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response have you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this comment section is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul.

Julius Randle> everyone

Godd Shammgod>everybody

your lying

thats amazing, but did you know that currys offense is his defense?

I think the expectation was for a better team to be built around him to potentially give Miami a run for their money like how Indy did twice

@@CliqueClips so it goes to show just how great Melo was playing that he made basketball fans forget the glaring fact that james doLan runs the Knicks and has never cared about anything but keeping the arena full. He's the Jerry Jones of the NBA, but I digress.
