    Last play in the Knicks/Kings game was Melo's entire career in a nutshell

    Has Porzingis wide open under the basket. Didn't even look. Launched a horrific three-point shot with plenty of time to spare instead.

    Melo's always going to Melo. One of the biggest loser "superstars" the NBA has ever produced.

    I can't believe he missed 5 foul shots especially. 85% shooter. Unreal.

    The last play was stupid but overall he missed a lot of easy shots which is a real shame. If he had been able to establish a rhythm he could've scored 45 on this team, easily. Just one of those nights. Well, another one of those nights for him lately.

    He's won 3 playoff series in 11 years. Top 50/75 or whatever is always hard to say for me (although I'll go out on a limb and say he doesn't make either) cause I don't know much about past eras, but he's miles behind someone like D Wade for instance. Wade won as many series in 2006 as Melo has in his entire career.

    He is an easily forgettable player in this time period. It's just like...oh...yeah...he still plays...

    He wouldn't be in my Top 200.

    And yes, I'm being serious.

    He's a good rebounder (when he actually cares to put forth the effort).

    It's over for Melo. Still a good player but he's a shell of his former self. Can't get past his defender anymore really. Forced to take tough jumpers.

    Rondo ripped his arm on the play hard. Under those time constraints, Melo can't be expected to dish it off. Fisher wrote the play up to shoot the 3 and go for the win.
    Was an obvious foul but no call on Rondo, you'll see the vine if you have Twitter.
    But the ref managed to call the phantom foul on calderon on casspi 15 seconds before that, as the replay showed him clearly going out of his way to not make any contact whatsoever.

    Carmelo is what he is.

    He just looks like a guy that wants to get high after the game.

    Big contract. No worries. Carmelo Anthony.

    Exactly. Why would he give a shit. Money is there either way now. Zero incentive.
