I like Jeremy’s game but the injuries held him back. Melo really destroyed his rise to superstardom, he just got so salty of how he think Jeremy Lin stole his spotlight from him. Carmelo is poison to any team and will never ever win a championship with that kind of personality in the NBA
@@katsu5015 Nah Melo was just greedy for the spotlight, he was in the big market ofc so I would understand why he'd want to be the guy of the knicks, but still it wasn't healthy for the team as they went 20-20 with Melo but without him they went 16-10. Melo is like Westbrook he cares more about individual success than team success but to be fair it is also important to have some individual success to enter the hall of fame, but it wasn't healthy at all for the team.
Add to the Lin situation, Melo forced a trade into New York when he could just sign there at the end of the season since he was on an expiring contract. Btw, the trade basically took the bench depth of the Knicks
Melo was so jealous that the fans love Jeremy Lin more than him, He told the organization that off season it’s either him or me which I believe did something to Lin mentally, thinking he did something wrong, thinking I don’t want to come anybody else team and takeover I just want to fit in, poor guy was never the same player after what Melo did
Cuz he was probably scared if he did he would get traded he got traded to the worst situation to the rockets where it was just the harden show then the Lakers where it was just kobe he was scared of taking over cuz he would be traded
As a Laker fan, I don't want us to win #18 this year.Melo should not get a ring! He should retire and finalize that divorce of his for what he did to Lin
Don't forget that Dwight brought his ego from Orlando to LA as well. D'Antoni wanted Dwight for mainly PnR but he wanted more post ups when Gasol is clearly the better post player. He should have focused more on rim running which could have saved his back from being injured and it would have made LA's offense that much better. Imagine Gasol and Nash just throwing lobs repeatedly to Dwight instead of him flailing his arms to get a good post position and failing at it.
True watch basketball examined on RUclips channel pointed this out I am happy he slightly changed his game in Portland but now now I was a team pick up Jeremy lin from the G ledge he should be playing asap if he can get to a system link Don Nelson, Mike D Antoni or pop he should be good.
@@jdunc3789 yeah Jeremy actually got his team involved and didn't just score he play making and hyped his team up where Carmelo just wanted points and to score which won't help u win I'm just sad we didn't get to see Jeremy reach his potential cuz of Melo he was always behind a score first star like harden and kobe and when he did have his team or Melo was playing along Jeremy showed he could be a star
#1 lebron James he ruined Alex Caruso’s shot at another championship by acting like he was their teams star obviously Alex Caruso is the goat and it’s not even close this disgusts me on how he would forget this
The reason that Jeremy Lin's career took a nose dive is bc he got injured and never returned the same. He lost a significant amount of explosiveness & speed. He was never a strong defender but when he returned he became a huge defensive liability. Most harmful was that he lost his explosive first step which was crucial to his game bc his strength was penetrating the defense.
Lin should have worn kneepads on both knees since the beginning. If you watch Knicks footage, he mainly wore lower leg compression sleeves & maybe one or no kneepads. Since he likes zigzagging to the basket as aforementioned (penetrating defense), that will increase your chances of banging knees/bodies with other players. Kneepads might have helped him avoid that meniscus tear & he would have been in the playoffs, who knows. Hindsight is 20/20. As they say, practice prevention.
A lot of players in the NBA have their downfall or fall short thanks to injuries or their roles being changed. Like Chris Paul and derrick rose who are known to be injury prone. And former star kevin love when he went to Cleveland. Many people criticize that he isn't actually good and that he only had those stats thanks for him being in a weak team but it's actually because he isn't playing the same role he originally did. Kevin Love used to go to down to the rim more in Minnesota but he sacrificed his stats and accepted his shooting role in Cleveland to help them win a championship. Jeremy Lin role in all of his teams was to score points and even though he isn't as explosive as he used to be, he became a better overall player. He became better at offball handling and a better shooter. So yes, injuries plagued his career but for the most part it's just him unable to play to his strengths and being unable to gain the opportunity to he had with the New York knicks.
Do you really believe that? Is it possible that Linfantasy was a moment in time that may not have been duplicated again no matter what the circumstances. In fact, Lin played in Houston, Los Angeles, Brooklyn, Atlanta and the Chinese league. Please explain why he never played on that level again? I know it's easier to make him a victim than it is to say he should take responsibility for his own failures.
Lin seems to play his best when he is the lead guard & the coach creates plays around him. It's also the chemistry with subordinate players, such as when he was with the Knicks, mainly without Melo. Introduce Melo, Harden, Kobe into the mix & making Lin 2nd level, then it somehow disrupted Lin. According to Lin, his best days playing were with Hornets.
@@robwebnoid5763 you're right Lin best day's were with the Hornets. He was coming off the bench to provide much needed scoring to the second unit. But that wasn't good enough for him and he decided to leave Charlotte.
@@keithgupton9349 ... He should have stayed with Hornets one more season. He was already a fan favorite. It's like his Knicks tenure all over again by only staying for a season (technically only half season with Knicks due to lockout). That's what I did not like about Lin, always restless looking for the next best thing & not soaking up with what good you already have in front of you, i.e. Charlotte. As much as I wanted him to stay in NY, the situation was already set that made him leave (Dantoni pushed out, Houston poison pill offer, no offer from Knicks due to luxury taxes, his agent didn't want to lower offer with Houston, huge injury, some bits of racism, & Melo (as later verified by Amare ... & also by Dantoni & Tyson, iirc). Sure, that restlessness got him a championship ring, but it also got him out of the NBA where he wanted to be, as evidenced by him leaving CBA last season & things didn't pan out. I think he's going back to CBA. Oh well.
@FaiZ Clutch tatum was a rookie and brown was in his 2nd year, without kyrie they made it to the ecf and took bron 7 games. second year kyrie came back and they lost 2nd round
Doesn't matter if he was a warmer. The whole team and organization wins. There were bench warmers in every NBA finals for ~75 years (and warmers in the ABA before that), yet no one really talks down about them. It is what it is, Raptors were already stacked, Lin wasn't really gelling with the team as he was a mid-season trade & so coach didn't need him in the end, yet Lin was still part of the team. Only thing is that I wish Lin stayed in Charlotte for one more season to play for Jordan. That's the only issue I have with Lin, he keeps looking for greener pastures, i.e. a journeyman.
@@robwebnoid5763 sorry it does because they didn’t do shit to earn it. There is a reason why Kobe’s or Jordan’s rings are more valuable than a bench warmer who didn’t even score or do anything.
at around 7:45 you tell why Russell Westbrook WAS NOT a PointGuard, perhaps NOW, & maybe in Houston maybe ! BUT to reference somebody ; he's not great at being 1 or the other but great at being both, great as a combo- guard. BUT I DIDN'T see “the greatness” as a Point in OkC nor Houston .
he wasn't really "kicked out of the league", just no one wanted to give him a shot with that "iso ball" mentality. He was past his prime, but not acting like it.
The teammates didn't ruin their careers in any of these situations. They either weren't good enough or got bit by the injury bug and were never able to recover and be the same player.
I’m my opinion melo is the worst person player to ever step foot in the NBA, he’s just an average player who gets a chance to put up big numbers by shooting 30shots. Mans sucks
Lmao man you guys reallllly need to get over this linsanity hype. I was all for linsanity until people started to act like Jeremy Lin was the second coming of Jordan. And I know he lead them to a whopping 7 game win streak but the following season the knicks went on a 14 game win streak while lin was playing below average in Houston
Jeremy Lin wouldn’t have been anything more than a solid role player with or without Melo. Melo ain’t ruin Lin’s career, Lin was never that great to begin with. He was average to terrible everywhere else he went after the Knicks so is that Melo’s fault too? Lmao people gotta stop overrating Jeremy Lin, his ceiling was nothin more than a solid starter. Nothin wrong with that at all but people gotta stop acting like he was gonna be a superstar or even an All-Star. He never was gonna be that great of a player
Jordan ain’t ruin no one. If mentally he couldn’t handle mean words what does that say about himself. The greatest player go through any adversity to be the best version of themself. This man got called mean words by Jordan and gave up on life
Darko Miličić is one of the best people in the world. He is grat guy, he is humble, he do charity work, he helped a lot of people. If there is more people like Darko, the world would be a better place.
Bro you can’t just say shit without full facts especially when you didn’t put all the info basically half truths and speculation there was so much more to most of these smh your creating false bias and narratives and defaming people smh
Lin was a product of Dantoni system just like Nash the system favors the ball handler look a James harden you see the numbers that got put up with real talent in dantoni style offense Lin was avg at best everywhere else
The Knicks weren’t a bad team before Lin sanity. Lin Sanity was a short tenure of that season. The Knicks were number 2 in the east and beat the Heat 3 out of 4 visits.
I wouldn’t say Kwame Brown was a complete bust. Sure he didn’t live up to the hype, but he played in the league for 12 seasons. That’s a long career in the NBA, regardless.
I remember Melo in college when he won the National championship in Syracuse, and back then he was a very humble kid and basketball player. Had Melo been drafted by the Detroit Pistons he would have been put in his place by some grown A$$ men who were not playing games and wanted to WIN as a team and establish a legacy of great basketball in MoTown!! S’heed, Ben Wallace, and Melo as a potential front court is a scary notion, that would have given the Pistons a tough defense with a hard working mentality, and a legitimate #1 option on offense to bolster the scoring load. I am sad as HELL that Boston let Mr. BIG Shot go, but that was a BAD man who fit very well into the city of Detroit and the Pistons basketball image in general. That chase down block on Reggie Miller by Tayshaun Prince is still burned into my vision and soul too, and the look on Reggie’s face was priceless!! I was in leadership training again at Fort Knox, KY and I will always remember that Finals where they took the Lakers to SCHOOL!!
I find it funny how often people in these videos say "Not to knock Russ" at what point do we start knocking him? No disrespect as he is an amazing individual talent, but very few top tier teams have gotten better with him. He's nearly always the problem.
It's 2021 If you think anybody in the NBA could ever be a bust it's just not true almost every player doesn't live up to expectations! That's just what it is ! Is Ben Simmons is a BUST? 🤡🤡
Jeremy Lin had a very unfortunate career. Hous and LA hurt him. Hous promised him a the team then got Harden and Mchale was dick towards lin no matter what. Lakers Byron Scott was a trash coach and that team was tanking, kobe was also a pretty bad teammate towards him. He played great in cha. In BK he was gonna be a star he was playin like one but injuries hurt.
That 2012-13 season wasnt the beginning of the end of Howards career. That was the end of his prime but not his career. He still is a NBA journey man with a ring under his belt now. Also I feel like you shouldve covered Magic an Norm Nixon, they slept with the same woman an had tons of issues from day one. The lakers eventually traded nixon to the clippers for Bryon Scott
I wonder why you didn't include kobe Bryant and smush Parker here. Kobe just destroyed smush career. The fact that kobe is a bad and terrible teammate.

Jeremy Lin had a very unfortunate career. Hous and LA hurt him. Hous promised him a the team then got Harden and Mchale was dick towards lin no matter what. Lakers Byron Scott was a trash coach and that team was tanking, kobe was also a pretty bad teammate towards him.
He played great in cha.
In BK he was gonna be a star he was playin like one but injuries hurt.
Carmelo was low key racist bro.
That 2012-13 season wasnt the beginning of the end of Howards career. That was the end of his prime but not his career. He still is a NBA journey man with a ring under his belt now. Also I feel like you shouldve covered Magic an Norm Nixon, they slept with the same woman an had tons of issues from day one. The lakers eventually traded nixon to the clippers for Bryon Scott
Jeremy lin wasn't just a scorer he was play maker but Melo robbed us of a good career cuz if Mike knew it was bullshit
I wonder why you didn't include kobe Bryant and smush Parker here. Kobe just destroyed smush career. The fact that kobe is a bad and terrible teammate.
This video should be called “Blame everyone”. Sometimes dudes just flame out! You got to savy on and off the court.
I’m really pissed at melo now, and I hope he stays at this low if a level for the rest of his career because he deserves it.
Only the Lin story makes sense
