Respect the love that Melo showed Dirk as a scorer. These kids don't understand that him being the 6th all-time leading scorer isn't by accident. He was really one of one.
I feel like the slept on part is that The cool thing isn’t even just getting to play in the league with your homies, but having a real chance at winning every night with your friends
@@ahmedegal6808 never doubted, that's my guy. I mean that most of the focus is "hey y'all played in college, y'all are friends, how's that?" and it should be "y'all won in college, and y'all have a team that can win in the pros, what's that like?"

@@nofreehooks I completely understand he was very underrated and REALLY GOOD scorer but stop meat riding old guys… he not getting 15 points in no game in the NBA !!!

Melo was cookin' in this episode. His point about the Jaylen Brown snub, was spot on. Instead of choosing his role player teammate ahead of him, they could've just gone with a college kid, from the USA Select team.
i feel like money is never a problem for jb he still signed a fruitful contract he is around all of his friends family who have money he makes a lot of money off endorsements and his podcast the love in ny is huge for him so i feel like the money will never be an issue and him realizing that he said let me give the money up to build a very strong team in return so they can win very honorable way of going about it loved this pod huge melo and knicks fan we ready for this upcoming year we hungry
The man has been getting paid good since he mavericks days, I get the paycuts are paycuts but these mufuckas be talkin like the millions aint MILLIONS that theyve made and been making for the past few yrs, only ppl that would be truly hurt leaving that typa money on the table is guys coming off rookie contracts or regulars that turned into an allstar or better
1 unmentioned, 1 under appreciated, & 1 under vauled SF making a Historical Pod 🔥🔥. Paul George, Melo, and Mikal Bridges. i hope people never forget how deep the SF position is !
It's definitely surprising that Mikal has made more final appearances than Melo and PG. but great fit for the knicks and the sixers! no doubt about it. it's going to be a crazy season.
I love that Melo is at all the knicks games man.. all the ex knicks players are but seeing Melo and his son at most games hits different and he is definitely part of the family Carmelo funny as eff tho hahaha my guy
@@123alexerdude didn’t show anything on the nets. Hence why they traded him after everyone thought they were gonna build around him. That alone says enough about Bridges as a player. He is really good as a role player but he’s not gonna bring them a ring. That would only be Brunson.
mid range from the elbow & the low post spin fade, absolute money from those two spots. LA was one of the last true PF’s before the stretch 4 transition began & i miss those types of forwards man.
@@hosniboz4942a phone booth scorer?, basically someone who is an elite scorer without having to do too much offensively in order to score the basket.Like dribbling too much,and etc.
@@hosniboz4942A phone booth is the small, enclosed public phone. Its a very small space. Being a phone booth scorer means you dont need much room to score Like Melo, Dirk. Use your body, footwork & fade away jump shots to score, without a lot of dribbling or driving to the hoop
EXACTLY, wade was taking the backseat majority of the time anyway, shit was really interchangeable for him and bosh being 2nd option depending on the nights, man just tryna validate his selfish thinking, knowing he aint have no true pressure to win wherever he was, and its ESPECIALLY crazy for him to say that like he wasnt a 3rd or last option everywhere he went on the backend of his career
@@terrancehampton7300 the word interchangeable right there gang, I aint say he was completely the 2nd option at all, but him and wade definitely was 2a 2b, IN MY OPINION
Hats off to Jalen Brunson. It says a lot about your character to sacrifice pay and/or your “stardom” for the betterment of the team. There’s a reason why some players win at high levels and others don’t. If you not trying to reach the highest peak at what it is you’re doing-what are you really doing it for if you’re already making more $$$ than you ever have in your life. Petty humans.
i think randle's job is a lot easier now. you gotta pick if you're gonna double him or brunson, you cant get away with both. we got knockdown shooters on the perimeter and josh. if we got rid of randle for someone who cant create as well as he does, then we will be in the same spot where brunson has to do everything. we are championship contenders cuz we have 2 all nba locks and a bunch of dawgs around them
Melo basketball knowledge though….like he really knows that shit & called out everybody’s game especially Big Al & Lamarcus over that left shoulder lol
My 5 Would For Phone Booth Buckets Would Of Been: 1 - Kyrie (Iverson Was Not A Point Guard) 2 - MJ or Kobe 3 - KD or Melo (Mash & PP Are 3s, Can’t Put Them At The 4 Man) 4 - Dirk Instantly Came To Mind For Me 5 - Hakeem
I Love Melo thats my Guy...Ive got his logo tattoo on me I wanted him in Philly I knew it would never happen but it would of been nice...But its all good thank god we got PG he's a real nice piece to have on your squad...I Really love the way are squads looking this yr...Watch you can come back and read this after this season PG is gonna have a Monster yr for Phila....I always wanted to ask Melo how was it playing with Iverson They should of won a Chip together they where both getting 30+ a night thats crazy..But no one ever ask that to Melo...Much love Melo & PG....

Absolutely, anyone who doesn't understand that is not worthy of being listened to when it comes to basketball
he was a beast came to mind right away at the 4 don’t know why it took so long for them to remember him
dirk's 1 championship means so much more than all the "superteam" championships that followed soon after
Melo is very knowledgeable about the history of the game. Showing respects to the generations.
We ain’t even used to call him Dirk in my hood; he was just “Dat German” 😭🤣 KD got his whole game from Da German fr…
Having Carmelo Anthony and mikal Bridges is amazing guest with you being in Vegas that's dope Paul George.🏀💯👍
Melo Stamping The New Knicks Team Is 🔥
He was a very selfish superstar.
@@GoodVibesPresident exactly why he didn’t take a pay cut back in the day and kept the knicks hostage with his fat ass contract lol
I feel like the slept on part is that The cool thing isn’t even just getting to play in the league with your homies, but having a real chance at winning every night with your friends
nah brunson is clearly a 1of1 down to earth human.

Melo tried to talk his way out of the banana boat story at first😂 it killed me when brought up the question back again😂😂😭😭
You can tell how much love melo have for Julius
Carmelo not being on the actual banana boat is the biggest Mandela effect😂
Dude fr I been tripping I swear I saw them

This Season is gonna be Fun to Watch
OG Randle , Brunson, Nova Knicks , Mikal
Its gonna be so dope watching all four of them play together
I got so hype when PG said “CARMELOOOOOOOOO ANTHONY”
My two favorite players Melo and PG. Got to have T Mac on your podcast.
That’s a episode I’ve been waiting for
Exactly! Love those 3!!!
They all alike
U have a type huh. Ringless bag chasing scoring forwards
Thank You!!!! This the one I've been waiting on #StayMelo
The banana boat segment got me rollin 😂

Best episode BY FAR 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Im just here for paul George and the sixers its gonna be a fun season 😁🔥💯
Mikal's face when melo said he couldn't be the fourth option hurt my heart. Please let it work in NY.
Melo chose his path. Different head spaces
Stop bro😂 Mikal knows how to be a role player
mikal not a top 20 player tho so it wont be hard for him, it might get difficult since randle will be back tho

It must have been so wild for Mikal to get that praise from someone like Melo.
Melo's advise to Mikal was really thoughtful, that's why every team needs an OG
Salute from a real Knicks fan PG

so refreshing to hear melo talk with no mero in the background. and I love mero..
lol same I love mero too but this was great
I miss the old nba man
Like if u think pg is good at impersonating
His NY Lance Stevenson impression was hilarious
Bruh you want to be noticed BAD lmaoooo.
His bron impersonations are always on point
His kawhi impersonation was good too but he went a little too far
hes fake as shit
Having Melo on the pod, was dope.
Al Jefferson for sure a dawg
Thank you for mentioning Al Jefferson
Love this!
Mad funny cause I was just watching Melo 7pm in Brooklyn yesterday when they were talking about Mikal now both of them on PG show 😂😂
i remember seeing 40 acres and a mule across the street from my hs so its cool to hear about
