Knicks Title Contenders with Carmelo Anthony?! - NBA Basketball - JRSportBrief

[redtrain8]

knicks are better without carmelo

[KnicksInsider]

funny how the memphis grizzlies went to the west semis

[TheROYALFRESHNESS22]

nope thats why they got swept

[MrbkNYC718]

negga...shut the fuck-up. this video sucks. stop hating on the knicks. you fags

[FailGameProductions]

one word in english and spanish... no

[nutritionjuice23]

I'm very glad to see the Knicks improving again. Man with what they have right now, that's not bad for a start.

[Gusohyeah111]

when are u gonna delete this video?

[JRSportBrief]

@Gusohyeah111 You didn't watch the video...

[Gusohyeah111]

@JRSportBrief lmao calm down, im kidding, at least ur a smart knicks fan

[RickDiggityTick]

out of those 3, i like watching chuncey play.

[cicirunner]

You're really hard on your team, JR.

[PostRockIsAGenre]

Rofl, it's hilarious how the Cavs keep whooping the Knicks' asses.

[mj4lyfe404]

i gotta say the nuggets look betta then the knicks

[dirtnasty0]

I don't think the Knicks are even gonna be in the playoffs.

[AsGodWatchesYouBurn]

Fact is, the knicks still suck, they will always be bostons bitch just like their fans

[statusmvp01]

any team with d'antoni will always lose...

[seanpull]

I have said this since Carmelo was traded, the Knicks are title contenders, this year. Look chauncey is a clutch player that can pass and score as good as every point guard in the league with the exception of maybe five. They have great perimeter shooting. The mid range game of Carmelo, and his ability to get to the rim is as good as anyone in the league, Amare's offensive post is tops in the league. Also, they can play good D. Holding the Heat to 86 is pretty damn good.

[MonkeytigerflimsFan]

@seanpull in wat world r u living in did u watch when lebron went to the heat everyone said it was gona be the heat then it was the celtics now its the knicks they will barely make it in the playoffs and if they do make it they WILL be OUT so dont have ur hopes high AT ALL

[seanpull]

@MonkeytigerflimsFan Yeah and look at what the Celtics have done. They are the best team in the East. The Heat are also very good, look at their record. You just proved my point for me.

[POLLUTEDMINDZ1]

HEAT VS FAKERS 

[elektroindi]

How... Heat havent beaten the Celtics in 3 games this year. How do you expect them to be in the finals playing basketball like that...

[WNSoren]

i hate grizzlies so much

[Jason92881]

i thought u were a knick fan, shame on u sir shame on u :-)

[Dmsguy]

@metjet4 what the he'll r u talkin about. Theyhave shaque and jermain oneil to big ass thick centers!! Maybe not quite as skilled at thier age but definetly bigger!! So shut up unroll u no what ur talking about?!

[xxrayziozxx]

i like how when u make a mistake in your video u don't edit it out u just correct urself and keep going

[dwayneclause]

there is WAY 2 much competition in the est 4 them 2 win. and check out my dunking vids

[WNSoren]

@dwayneclause there would be too much competition in west too.. lol

[AmareStanimirePHX]

*are not

[iLikaDaSexxxx]

@AmareStanimirePHX lol jealous suns fan? most likely

[AmareStanimirePHX]

@iLikaDaSexxxx lol nah always been a NYK fan just good fortune that my favourite player moved :D 

[AmareStanimirePHX]

NYK army contenders this year , not enough depth in the team and not enough defensively minded guys ... Saying that they can score and maybe could get lucky , but I agree though , not this year

[OMGWTFShizznat]

Kings beat the Heat by 20.

Tite contenders!!!

[metjet4]

JR, of course the Knicks are contenders. Especially now that the Celtics don't have size. Chauncey Billups puts the Knicks over the hump and into the Knicks. They proved that they could play solid defense against of all people the HEAT! 91-86??? C'mon JR.

[BRavens27]

@metjet4 Lol your (and everyone else) is too hung up on the Boston/Miami heat(no pun intended). The team to beat in the east is Chicago.

[Blastoise53097]

Are the Bulls still average? I think not!

[unknownb33]

Where all these Knicks fans been hiding for the last 10 years lol

[Air23Davis]

Troy Murphy to the Celtics :)

that offsets the Perkins situation!

we sent an Injured KP to OKC for a very Talented Green!

we won that deal!

[metalhead4lyfe1]

i think most of these people commented without watching the video. everyone thinks JR said the Knicks are title contenders, he obviously claimed otherwise

[IH8cornandcolts]

Top 5 NBA Teams:

1. Spurs

2.C's

3.Heat

4.Lakers

5.Knicks

[PhilliesTarHeelsFan9]

@IH8cornandcolts You can take off Knicks and add Mavs to that.

[WNSoren]

@IH8cornandcolts are you joking? not even close

[Neckwerk2]

What up JR? You da man!

[ChamPeter]

you basically answered the question after the first 13 seconds....

[iSOULJA44]

yo u a lil bitch

[indoisaiah]

CO ZA ASY

[osfan25]

Take the win against Miami with a grain of salt, the Heat played a poor game and the Knicks took advantage. The playoffs is where it's at and the Knicks will win a round or two but that's it. They can't go 7 games with a good team.

[lebronjamesbgsgems]

melo clearly fouled lebron on the lsat second rive JR!

MIAMI WERE RIPPED OFF BUDDY!!!

[WcBanks914]

@lebronjamesbgsgems

lls with a name lebronjamesbgs of course you would say lebron was fouled.

Get over it good D by melo and S.T.A.T swatted the shit out the ball lol

Bron Bron ain't know what hit him see him crying after that play. '' Where The Foul Ref ''

[imsljr420]

@lebronjamesbgsgems : even if he didn't foul him amare was still going to swat his shot away.....and miami didn't get "ripped off".... they didn't tell wade to go 5 of 15 with 5 turnovers or lebron to have 5 turnovers (but lebron did have a good game)

[TONYROSS81]

Like jr said they need to commit to playing defense even thought they play pretty good d against the heat

[rkc91]

@JRSportBrief

it's funny how you ignore my cavs beating your Knicks friday night but suddenly when they beat the Heat on Sunday their title contenders? it's just one game guys. lets not get carried away

[tampabay85]

@rkc91 Clearly you didn't watch this video. JR said the Knicks ARE NOT title contenders.

[JRSportBrief]

@rkc91 What video did you watch? I don't think it was this one.

[4EvaMagicAndLakers]

@JRSportBrief

rkc91 is not the smartest......

[MarcinLudwicki]

@rkc91

Hey, man I think you had written it before you watched this video. fail

[ThePhill98]

@rkc91 why are you a cavs fan ? they suck and the only reson you and your cav fans are angry is because with lebron left and your team is shit if you wanna be happy root for some other team because right now the have no chance in hell to make the playoffs let alone win a championship

[NashStatMatrix]

@rkc91 Dude, did you even watch this whole damn video? JR's not a bandwagon Knicks fan who thinks they're all of a sudden a championship team. He's a Knicks fan, but he doesn't think they're championship contenders this year, maybe in 2 or 3 years. Go watch the video.

[dojOdRiFTeR]

lakers and boston r the elite teams

[92890javier]

N-O!

[lildog913]

Why are the Knicks going to buy out Corey Brewer, he's a pretty good player IMO....

[nbzballa23]

I KNOW IM GOING TO HAVE PEOPLE DISAGREE BUT IN MY OPINION MELO IS A BETTER CLOSER THEN LEBRON..BUT DONT GET ME WRONG BRON BRON IS THE BEST IN THE BIZZ FOR SURE

[nbzballa23]

scoring is not a problem for the knicks ..if they can commit to playing better defense and stop letting the 2nd chance points they can def beat an elite team in the playoffs and make some noice..

[xxrayziozxx]

needs a defensive minded centre

[fullnelson9999]

They aren't contenders, but how cool would a Bulls/Knicks Eastern Conference Finals match up be?

[larry89]

THE KNICKS BARELY HAVE A BENCH..

[idkfoo6]

It's all up to how Billups plays, we know what Melo and Amar'e can do.

But New York has no bench. Corey Brewer and Turiaf wouldnt play more than 5 mins in LA or Boston.

They dont have someone who is a defensive stopper. ei: Shane Battier.

They're good but not Great

[DJLILMATIC]

@idkfoo6 ronny turiaf clearly played more then 5 min when he was in LA

[GSCommander]

Knicks beat Heat

Cavaliers beat Knicks

Cavaliers vs. Knicks Eastern Finals

[KoMighty]

@GSCommander cavs are already out of the playoffs though

[rkc91]

@KoMighty

he was joking bro lol

[mj4lyfe404]

@GSCommander what in like 2013

[GSCommander]

@GSCommander HA! They did it again yesterday XD

[TheGamer2323]

I'm a BIG heat fan and even I'll admit the knicks big 3 is not BETTER but way more balanced than heats big 3. When you look at it over time billups will be the leader of that team why? He's the only one who has been there and done it. He's a finals mvp has multiple championships and is a true leader. Add melo and stoudemire you have key offensive threats. Miami's big 3 is so inconsistent and someone needs to tell lebron in clutch situations give it to wade. I never questioned the coach till now

[MrNFL6]

there your favorite team and your doubting them!

[ddericwu]

they should trade turiaf for david lee

[ylbentley]

1:15 Trying To Find Link To Carmello Video...

[UNCfanatic50]

@goudz23 the Knicks may have beat the Heat and yes they are pretty much equal offensively but in a 7 game series the Heat will take it in 6 because of their defense...and, the supporting cast of the Knicks is actually worse than the Heat the only decent player they have is Fields. Heat have Mike Miller, will be getting Mike Bibby, and they have James Jones

[Junkbox09]

mm they won on a defensive play...

[Clear2engage]

they aren't contenders unless they get better players next season; Dwight Howard?

[JAENYC3]

You never know JR!

[XXLALAKERXX2]

wow how do they lose to the worst team in the NBA but win one of the best.

[PRtoRP]

@XXLALAKERXX2

LMFAO hello lakers lost to them too

[jd55192]

When was the last time a team that doesn't emphasize defense won a Championship? Good luck with D'Antoni steering that ship, Knick fans.

[goudz23]

Idk I'm not a Knicks fan but I think they could win it all... Honestly they have a nearly equal(offensively speaking) big 3 to Miami... Billups was playing and is playing just as good as Bosh(not saying hes as good, just that hes performing equally).. and who knows maybe Amare and Melo will comit to playing D.. Both of them COULD BE very good defenders if they choose to... Also the surrounding cast in NY is way better than that of the Heat.. Douglas, Carter, Mason, Brewer, FIELDS, Azubuke,Turiaf

[goudz23]

@goudz23 ctd.. not to mention in the east they don't have to guard any scoring centers in the playoffs.. Just Dwight.. and really Orlando wins when they hit 3s Dwight can't win a series by himself(maybe a game here or there)... Boston gave away Perk so unless Billups gets dogged by Rondo every game they won't beat the Knicks... All Pringles man has to do is get Amare and Melo to focus on PLAYING D and letting the offense come to them...

[JCKlip]

Notice he never talks about hockey. But I'm not complaning I hate hockey!

[kylem355]

They need a center

[GhostFromDa361]

So right here right now..Who do you think is gonna be in the 2011 NBA Finals?

[tboyboo1]

"Do are, what the hell i'm i talking about", kml you should be a comedian.

[iShakeBabiez]

do you think the knicks are gonna try to sign dwight howard?

[haranaTHSU]

New Coach + D Players + Chemistry = Next Season or Season After... Eastern Conf. Finals or maybe NBA Finals contenders.

[rcinglad]

Nah, they need a new coach maybe bring back Larry Brown or otherwise D'antoni will just watch them play no defense..

[KiiDPRODUCTION]

I think

[zabuza182]

NYK are not cause its already over half the season and the team needs to mesh more. Maybe make it through the second round but not the Finals, if they do then that will be very very impressive

[stevel920]

They cant beat the Heat in a 7 game series.

[TheNbaCard]

anthony carter????????? all day

[wildwolves8]

NO.

[SilencedAssassian]

they need one more superstar whether a pg a center or sg they need a superstar to fill one of those spots if they do tht they will defiantly be a strong force in the east and will be great contenders for a championship cant wait to see what they will do with this offseason but for right now with this roster they are 2nd rounders top in the postseason. ( Knicks fan since camby days in the 2000 season.) GO KNICKS

[209purplebannana24]

@SilencedAssassian they have chauncy billups at point guard you fukkin idiot

[SilencedAssassian]

@209purplebannana24 SUPERSTAR<< you ignorant fuck billups is a good player great in the clutch at times but he is not a fucking superstar  do you see him dishing out 10+ assists every game putting the team on his back mostly every SINGLE game getting points like its nothing making his team 50 times better ?? no. hes not on a level of a rondo rose willaims or cp3 and thts wht i meant. think before you star commenting stupid shit you should take time and think about wht you have read

[randomenzo]

Knicks should sign JR = Instant championship contender.

[K1NGCOLE31]

The Heat really arent that great. They dont win good quality games.

[TheEtcetera5]

In this video u say that anyone has a chance of winning. While in ur other videos u always make it sound like that any of the lower seeds will lose. Kinda hypocritical? I could be wrong tho

[wwefan96321]

they got lucky in one game, calm down. I'm a knicks fan btw

[jackjack05cornell]

JR u are the man

[JRSportBrief]

@jackjack05cornell Nah, you the man.

[TheVR33]

@JRSportBrief man JR is the best! good videos man you are the best youtuber !

[BrentWoodSean38]

I went crazy when Billups hit that 3 pointer right in D-Wade's face

[rbermea]

@JRSportBrief Like I said before, I don't think the Knicks are title contenders just yet. Maybe in like one or two years because they still gotta get used to their big three (Amar'e, Carmelo, and Chauncey) playing together. I am pretty sure they can make it to the Eastern Conference Semis or Eastern Conference Finals but not the big stage just yet. So far they're 2-1 since the blockbuster trade, and maybe they will be a 6 or a 5 seed come playoff time.

[erocktheartist]

Billiups is very underated 

[MrDeathwisHz]

The Bulls are a Championship Contender!

[GoldGodzilla]

All the Knicks need is a few Defensive minded players, like Kendrick Perkins etc

[iPhoneIsTheBestPhone]

can you please shout out (padre yousif)

[raiders545]

what about the bucks?

[wuat007]

@raiders545 bucks will rock

[804archie]

jr are u really a knicks fan

[lilnate0]

@804archie yes he is he has that knicks poster in every video, what makes you ask that question?

[804archie]

@lilnate0 because he just makes it sound like he dosent want them to win

[csikkmusic]

Not yet, but they are a few players away.

[lilHippo]

J.R will be eating his words in the playoff finals

[MrKnickslover]

Duh the knicks are the best team in the nba!

[DOBESisBOSS]

no mention of them losing to the cavs, lol

[TheStokesman]

SO I GUESS EVERYBODY WHO BEATS THE HEAT IS A TITLE CONTENDER HHMMMMMM. LETS GO CLIPPERS

[dwadefan4lyfe2]

@TheStokesman LOL

[MarcinLudwicki]

@TheStokesman

Had you even watched this video before writing that comment. I mean it's funny, but it seems like you commented a wrong video ;)

[Maikinized]

@TheStokesman Watch the video dude..

[roaddogg567]

no way the knicks are nba champ contenders they need time to develop chemistry ...but they will be a entertaining team to watch in the playoffs

[elemental12345678900]

wait...u sit in front of that cam..always thought u stood...random i kno !!

[kingchaos555]

i dont think they are. the east has improved greatly over the past couple years. if this team had formed a few years ago, i would give them a better shot. but with all the trades and free agent signings,i see them as a slightly above average team. i can see them winning a round or two in the playoffs, but championship contenders, i dont think so.

[choigunz]

Are the knicks championship material?? no i don't think so.like you said they just need a few more pieces that will make their team flow a little better on both ends. Carmelo and stoudemire are pure scorers with some defense but two people can't win a championship. Chauncey has that leadership but without a bench what is there to lead? if they get some good role players then they'll be dangerous in the playoffs but as is. No they are not winning a championship this year...100% just like the heat

[DistinguishedDudes]

no maybe next year though because of the great teams out there u know u got bulls heat cetics and orlando now im not saying that they cant win but those teams will give them one heck of a tough time. also dont think im saying oh yeah orlando is goin all the way im just saying they will probably go through 2 of those teams. and like you said they need better D i mean they have as much offensive firepower as the best teams out their but defense wins championships. u know im right so thumbs up

[oscareric2007]

jr bibby is a free agent....next stop..Miami?

[GrandMasterPikachu]

The Knicks were very commited to defense in the Miami game holding them under 90. Let's all hope it's like this for sure. If so, all they need is a big man that can grab some boards, and they'll be contenders.

[ylk123]

Van Gundy and the boys are gonna win the whole thing nbd

[rbermea]

I wouldn't say the Knicks are title contenders just yet. Maybe in like one or two years.

[kingofkingssaveus]

Not this year. I see them maybe going deep into the playoffs, but I don't think they arn't gonna get to The Finals. And you guys have Brewer. But to beat the LAKERS in The Finals, I think not.

[angelsk93]

i'll give it a year or two and they'll be one of the top contenders for sure..

for now, the team is just too new..

like the lakers and pau.. took them a year to get the championship, not the year of the trade itself..

same thing on the knicks, maybe not now but later on for sure..

[inakiaguas]

nope, too early to say theyre title contenders... maybe 2-3 years

[LFCuntilidie]

no fuckin way they get past the 2nd round this year

as long as d'antoni is coach you guys arent winning shit

[LethalJay93]

obviously not...

[mr3000ts]

they need a good center like dwight howard and some decent backups and theyre good to go

[itsAPPL3]

Ya any team to lose to the cavs in my mind are not a championship team

[brandon62392]

@itsAPPL3 so lakers and celtics are not a chapionship team? they lost to them too

[MrRavi133]

@itsAPPL3 So the Cs and Lakers are not contenders?

[aznylxd1992]

Next year they will be.. All they need right now is D.

[SteelyMcBeam777]

Knicks need a PG, SF, and a PF

[MrGReenBlackBlue]

@SteelyMcBeam777 i thought carmelo was a sf and amar'e was a PF

[LethalJay93]

@MrGReenBlackBlue No.. C and SG son

[SteelyMcBeam777]

@MrGReenBlackBlue they are i was kidding lol

[tjprodocutions]

Billups is a key piece to the Knicks, especially the performance he put on last night. People dont give him enough credit.

[theoriginalmquan]

@tjprodocutions i feel you on that one...ive been a fan of billups since he was in his prime and lead the pistons to championships and i was offended for him when the sportscasters were talking about "the new york big two" excluding chauncey from the equation

[nbzballa23]

@tjprodocutions i agree

[DTOWNRW16]

No they arent. Period.

[JMort95]

ray felton > chaunchy . they need a good shooter and slash wingman

[brandon62392]

@JMort95 relton has bad shot selection he misses alot im glad he's gone

[JRSportBrief]

@JMort95 Huh?

[SmokinBluntzzz]

not yet. the knicks have awhile to go before they truly jell together... plus they are very soft on defense.

[Prince100bill]

they need a good center

[stevechen1991]

Knicks should sign Brian Scalbriane for championship experiences!

[fancyviper]

they will make to round 2 and lose to the heat, bulls, or celtics. wait for chris paul guys were almost there and dont forget a good center

[mars8254]

@edunavia no

[mars8254]

Nope, Bye!!!

[batow8]

@edunavia That's what I'm saying.

[joedub2218]

Not yet

[DrSanto91]

you what is so great about the knicks getting carmello anthony, the heat-knick rivalry is renewed. and this is coming from a celtic fan. I want to see these two teams meet in the playoffs.

[Dustyp03]

right on jr they aint contenders but they will be within the next 3 years

[nichikun30]

They may have beaten the Heat but I do not think they are ready. Give this team some time to even build up and we'll see how far they can go and not to mention there are many teams that are better than the Knicks right now.

[MRan7256]

NHL trade deadline,,,

[mordy1995]

You gotta love the trade. NYK got a world class scorer in anthony carter to go along in a big three with andy rautins and roger mason

[batow8]

I hate the Knicks. Almost everybody is just jumping on the bandwagon.

[reym613]

ummm yea they are contenders but the are not winning it this year because of a team named ...... CELTICS
