Message: [QUOTE="OrangeDW, post: 2584843, member: 2458"] I think it’s more about Amare being hurt than the mediocre young guys they traded to get him. Plus Tyson Chandler (their other big signing) being banged up and playing poorly in the playoffs every year. The Knicks invested heavily in those 3 guys, and Carmelo was the only one they got their money’s worth from. People who had a bone to pick with Melo liked to pretend that Wilson Chandler and Gallo were a big deal, but those guys are a dime a dozen. Would they have got them past Indiana or Miami, given that Chandler got worked and Amar’e was either hurt or hurting himself by trying to do trick dunks in warmups and punching fire extinguishers after games? Once Phil came and started signing washed up and injured guys like Noah, it was over. Melo was the only important person in that organization who did his job from 2011-2017. [/QUOTE]
