Bah, this never goes anywhere. You guys dont get it and cant take me a my word, so yeah, go ahead and think what you will.

This should be fairly obvious, but pointing to a unique physical feature about a certain race of people isn't the same as wearing fashion accessories, particularly when those fashion accessories are never used to ridicule a race or group of people.


Texans aren't a race, there's nothing universal about white people and cowboy hats.


No one is calling you a racist, or calling the Spanish team racists. What we are saying, unequivocally, is even if they're not racist...that picture, and thus that action was racist.


People who genuinely aren't racist still do racist shit all the time. "Hey I have black friends, I'm not racist I swear I have nothing against black people"...that may be true, but you still can't do blackface, use the N word, or refer to black people in any other racist way even if you genuinely aren't a racist bigot yourself.
 
Hah, Melo finally sitting out. Better late than never. Knicks won't get blown out, at least.
 
stat needs to be the leading scorer.they cant rely on a rookie.also bibby should get way more minutes.watch mike put walker as the melo replacement lol.
Amare should get the most touches but Rainbow Shumpert has a need to chuck that can not be quenched.

No Melo, Shump/Douglas controlling the ball, Shump gonna Shump.
 
Bill Simmons has this theory that you always trade a dollar for coins. (Superstar for pieces)...I think the Melo trade is the first time that I can remember that the theory got demolished.


I can't even imagine how good the Knicks would be if they had Gallo, Felton, Amare, Chandler instead of Amare / Melo.


What a seriously horrible basketball player, Melo might be the most one dimensional "superstar" I've ever seen.
 
Why? I also don't need my bosses and extended family seeing that stuff. Even if I was a social drinker, I'd still not want my boss and co-workers browsing through it.

Unfortunate that you feel the need to hide something as common as social drinking, or hanging around others that are drinking.

It's one thing posting half-naked pics or you puking and acting a fool. It's another to feel the need to hide a picture of you holding a drink within a social setting.

But that's just me.
 
In your opinion, being objective, who's going further in the playoffs this year?

Denver or NYK?


Trick question, only 1 team makes the playoffs!


ok if thats true then they will go to the conference finals within the next 5 years.lets see...

That was a fraud run. They beat a hurt and quitting NOH team in round 1 and met an overmatched Dallas team because Ginobili got hurt costing the Spurs the series.

Melo needed a lot of luck to even ever get out of the 1st round.
 
Remember the year after that, Melo goes for 40 in game 1 and everyone sports Carmelo heads in here to spite me?

Good times.

With as beat up as we were, we had no business running them out of the playoffs like that. It was glorious. Oh wait, it was Carmelo, we had all the business in the world.
 
When Denver beat Dallas:

-Josh Howard and Erick Dampier were playing hurt in addition to being themselves.
-We had Antoine Wright, Ryan Hollins, and Brandon Bass playing significant minutes. Brandon Bass was our center in crunch time.
-The only reason they won game 3 was because the crooked refs didn't call an intentional foul.
-The thing with Dirk's ugly girlfriend happened and he still outscored Melo in every single game in the series.

Hey man, the people of Utah had spoken and they were for Melo!


Melo has never taken enough flak for that series. Utah was down to like 2 good players (Deron and Milsap) and still won that series in 5. There is absolutely no way a team with a top 10 player loses that series. Not even Lebron.
