    Melo dgaf anymore lol

    stuck calling out haters on Instagram



    then follows it up with more pettiness that OP posted

    he’s also had to defend himself in a “who’s better between Melo and Kyle Korver” debate and had Steven Adams “accidentally” like an IG comment critical of him

    We will never know, but I think he would have been better for us than he was in OKC. No one looks good in that system. Our offense would have fit Melo skills.

    he would have been benched for PJ Tucker no doubt, and would have probably thrown a fit. Melo was getting wide open shots all playoffs and just straight up bricking all of them, on top of that he plays even less defense than Ryno.

    Our end product at the end of the season was straight up suffocating defense with really iso heavy offense. Melo simply does not fit into that mold, and would not get minutes vs GSW just like Ryno never did because he would get abused on defense on switches.

    This is the most Carmelo Anthony picture EVER.

    We won't know...... it is possible Anthony would have fit in better. However he would still be asked to rebound and take 3's, just like he was in OKC. Granted Paul/Harden is far better at getting teammates open shots. One thing to consider, so far Anderson has kept quiet and not caused any problems for the Rockets. That would not likely be the case with Anthony.

    I don't want Melo either, but at least he can put the ball on the floor and drive when there's a close-out. Ryno just pump fakes then passes, he's rendered completely useless when the defense pays attention to him.
