He carried them in game two with AS's back acting up....can't blame Melo for either loss, the Knicks simply can't close out games against the better teams, they could be 2-0 if they could. They aren't far from being a pretty good team, Orlando is declining so next year they could easily be fourth behind the Heat, Bulls and Celtics.
