    Kobe is going to teach Melo how to win!

    Good Lord.

    In terms of the NBA talent ladder, Jeremy Lin is a PEASANT compared to Carmelo. I like Jeremy and his game (minus playoff performances), and he's seemingly a much better dude than Carmelo, but this is a business about winning. Carmelo helps us win 1000x more than Lin.

    J.Lin and his agent can take their $15 million and be happy with it. Because they look really pathetic right now doing all of this publicly.

    Ship this guy out already! Wish we would not never gotten rid of Lowry or Dragic. I can't deal with another playoff series and Lin making bonehead mistakes.

    It just gets more and more interesting, better than the last 5-games-losing playoff run for sure:grin:

    Carmelo lived in New York as a little kid. He grew up in Baltimore. That "WB" tattoo on his shoulder stands for West Baltimore.
