I feel people hype him up every pre-season then he goes on and disappoints.
I have given up on the guy, he just have what it takes to be a leader/champion.
Was it a girl or boy? I kept getting in arguments with my friend: I said Melo was pregnant and he said he was just fat.
in this thread, Carmelo invents new ways to fool the NYC fans

i still think this team has what it takes to win it all.
depends if lin comes back and plays like he was in february because his stats were starting to drop across the board but assists were going up.

Great news, even though he was heavier than he should've been, he played like the best player in the league the last month of the regular season once he was healthy and motivated and arguably the best all around ball of his career.
Maybe this is the year he puts it all together for an entire season and has that monster season. I mean maintaining his '06-'07 pre-suspension level, '09 playoff level, first 2 months of '09-'10 before injuries, and the last month of the '11-'12 regular season. He shows top 5 player ability in stretches like that, but I'm hoping he finally does it for an entire season. We definitely need it!
I'm not sure if this mix of talent will ever fit together, but there is a lot of talent. It can't hurt to have a full training camp, a healthy team and Woodson from the start. I'm still not sure Woodson is the right coach long term, but he earned a shot after going 18-6.

Well first he's closer to 6'10 but it isn't how much he weighs it's how lean he is is what's important. And looking from those twitter pics he's not as lean as an NBA player should be...pretty much he aint running and lifting enough

6'10? Is that a joke? Melo is like 6'7 1/2 tops

His ideal weight is probably 230-240. What he needs to do is lose the body fat percentage and gain a little muscle. Sometimes last season when he go to the basket he would look so flat jumping because he seemed so out of shape.

He's no where near 6'10". His pre-draft measurements when he came into the league with shoes was 6-7.5". He never grew after being drafted.

Knicks stood no chance against the Heats in the playoffs and Melo hasn't done a thing yet with the Knicks. He catches fire here and there but he's not consistent. He should just STFU and work hard and let his game show how much he improved other than self claiming this and that. Many ppl lost faith in him cause he doesn't improve throughout the seasons and that's just a lack of hard work. :facepalm
Wait, does this mean he has changed his dedicated "donuts for breakfast/ half hour of light exercise in the afternoon/cheeseburgers for dinner" fitness regimen?

6' 6.25".... (w/o) shoes
Right between Paul Pierce's 6'6 and Lebron's 6'7.25 w/o shoes... Which is exactly where one would expect relative to those other two players.
And both Dwight Howard and Kevin Durant measured 6'9 barefoot so....

I think it's a simple case of excessive enthusiasm. People hyping the sh*t out of their hero's. Even ESPN analysts are calling a tape-measured 6'9 Durant a "seven footer". People just want to believe he's that big because it makes him seem more special. The fact that NBA list heights are made up and can vary + as much as 2.5" inflation on some players doesn't help. And it is possible that some players grow after the draft, but the differences are going to be smaller than most people are willing to believe. Guessing anything beyond a 1/2" growth for a 19 year old dude is beyond probability. More often than not, people are finished growing in measurable height at that age.

I didn't call him 6'10 i said he's closer to 6'10 (than 6'8 or whatever it was that guy said) and Melo has gotten at least a little taller since then

How does 6'6.25 become closer to 6-10 than 6-8?... even if his 19 year old 233lb 6'6.25 frame grew "a little" (which clearly it hasn't because he's 239lbs right now and still looks pudgy) ... ?

Are you incapable of reading that i didn't say he was 6'10? and I could care less about his height w/out shoes, he was almost 6'8 at 18 years old in shoes and i know he got taller than that since he's been in the league. Unless Lebron at 6'8 got shorter or something
In the end it doesn't matter to me really

I'm not even going to get into why the "in shoes" moniker is BS. But regardless, get your facts straight because he was 1/2 inch less than 6-8... and he was 19...
Right now he's a pudgy 239lbs, only 6lbs more than when he was drafted... therefore how many fractions of an inch do you think he grew since the age of 19. 1/8th? 1/4? Based on his body mass it actually seems quite plausible he did not grow at all... thus never once exceeding much less fully equaling 6-8 even "in his shoes" :lol
I don't see how he can even vaguely be interpreted as ~6-10 unless you have a bad habit of inflating the sh*t out of every NBA players height :oldlol:

...they look almost exactly the same. if anyone looks taller by a smidge it would be LeBron. Plus if you look they put them in order by height and LeBron is also in front of Carmelo. (Bosh's hair doesn't count). With the exception of Kidd being in front of Wade they're all in order.
Here's the full sized imagine, you can tell Leborn is slightly taller and his head is even bent over slightly...

Some players can't get Ripped like Lebron, Ray Allen, Rondo, Artest
Some guys are like Melo, Pierce, Deron Williams... Not fat guys but just "thick" built.
I seriously feel like theres homo tendencies at these combines... They salivate over a guys 8 pack while theres the pudgy guy getting by everybody and balling.
