I don't disagree with you that the Knicks may not win a title in the next 5 years. But Chicago was not a sure fire bet either with Rose's health a question mark. Melo had no choices equal to what the big 3 in Miami were able to make happen when they came together. If only all the big contracts had expired for the Knicks this year - perhaps Phil could have made something exciting happen. But timing is a contributing factor when it comes to winning championships - and the timing was not good for the Knicks and Melo this year. Not to mention all the horrible decisions Dolan and crew made in trading away so many draft choices and signing up an injury prone guy to a max contract in Amare etc.

The Knicks are Melo's favorite team and he's now a Knick probably for the rest of his career. Hopefully, Phil can work some magic to give Melo a chance. If he doesn't win one, he'll join a long line of Hall of Famers who never won a championship - no shame in that. In the NBA, you normally have to have 3 all star caliber players to win a championship in a given year. Melo's never had that and perhaps he never will. But we can hope.
