OKC really flourished after he was gone as wellThat’s absurd. Very few alumni are unpopular around these parts. You really have to go out of your way.I don’t think he was looking for sympathy but just correcting misinformation. He is willing to play a lesser role and come off the bench. He comes to practice everyday, works hard and could be a good veteran presence.It sounds like he's looking for sympathy, unfortunately I think this interview will provide the opposite.
Every single answer he gave he came off as a victim.
I love and appreciate everything Melo did and has done for Syracuse and he was very easy to root for during his brief time on the hill. That said, NBA Melo isnt nearly as likeable and makes it very difficult to root for him.
If he didn't win us a title I dont think he'd be popular around these parts.
Melo was scapegoated in Houston and it should be obvious to everyone now that he wasn’t really the problem. They did him dirty and it cost him another gig last year. Might cost him one this year.
Not sure if the OKC thing was a joke, but they were blinded early again this year. Problem in OKC was Westbrook...
