Best NBA players without a ring, and why Melo doesn't belong in the conversation

[Da King]

melo's teams have been favored to get out of the 1st round just twice

and as much as i like CP3, he's getting a pass from a lot of y'all

CP3 is a bytchmade cry baby flopping fakkit but he took a scrub ass Clippers squad who wasn't sniffing the playoffs one season to the 2nd rd the next season and upsetting the Grizz in the 1st rd

ya'll act like Melo dont play his heart out in the offs. go watch those series it aint his fault he not making it out his team just aint as good. and KD aint all that much better than Melo but he's on a better team than melo has ever been on and caught the west at the right time (better teams are old not in their prime) it's more factors than just one player.
hell look at Wade career without Shaq and without Bron

PLAYED HIS HEART OUT????



LOL Melo has been critisized for not being in the best shape and not playing hard for his coach!

bet melo get drafted to the cavs...n lebron went to the nuggets..

melo woulda took the cavs deep into the playoffs...n it wouldnt have 2-3yrs like it did lebron..

melo carried a trash nugget team in the stronger west conference..


east been week since jordan left...it took pieces to come to cleveland for lebron to win..

How about when he played the fukking Clippers and shot 33%? How about him being in the East now and having back to back 7th seeds (team was 5th when he arrived)? I have never seen people be this understanding of a guy. T-Mac was rolling with Pat Garrity and had all the cap room occupied by a injured G.Hill and all he ever got was ridicule. When it comes to Melo nikkas get all in depth with shyt. That's wack. If team failures warrant ridicule (I don't think so but so many others do when it convenient) then it should be even across the board. There is always an outside reason why a team fails. Funny how cats only see this when it a player they like though.

Tmac was better then then melo. I always thought he was underrated.

And I never said melo played well in the playoffs all the time(he was great 07-10) but he was facing better Competetion in the west, that's the point.
It's easier to get farther in the playoffs when your facing nobodies.

Carmelo and Lebron beat the same number of 50 win teams for the squad that drafted them. Lebron just starting beating good teams in the playoffs last year

It's like when nikkaz say, oh "AI and kidd took their teams to the finals".... Yeah But in a watered down eastern conference

 

[shopthatwrecks]

because lower seeds always make it out of the 1st round in the west

hell yeah...west always been deep..

u can have more losses than wins..n make it in the east...

most players dont play all out for a coach they dont like but yea i guess i was wrong. i was talkin more about the playoffs tho since thats what we focusing on

So we judging elite talent on just making the playoffs now?

And stop it with the excuse making. Every elite star in the league could use the same excuses. Superstars get results. Melo been out the first round ONCE. He ain't elite, he's a second tier star, not a franchise player.

It's not excuse making I'm giving a reason . You guys aren't being logical and yes because melo turned a lottery team into a playoff team in one year so that gets credit.
Why didn't Lebron get to the finals more than one time before joining the heat ??? Who were the elite teams Lebron beat in the east with the cavs ? Let me guess his team sucked and his coach sucked????

Lebron had to play the spurs in the finals that was melo first round opponent . They haven't had the same road at all like yall are acting . Still let melo career finish before you deem him a failure same with calling Lebron a goat .

By the way hawks fans obsessed with the knicks mad how we more popular in your city and more relevant but only took us one year to do it

So.. according to ya'll Broy wouldnt have been shyt

Dantoni wanted melo traded and to give the team to Lin Not to mention only wanted him behind the three point line and got melo wanted to play the post :/ not to mention Lebron quit versus the celtics in the playoffs to go to Miami

he shot 34% the last 3 games against Boston

 

[ThaBronxBully]

Wrong again. Melo is supposed to be a franchise player so the criticism he gets is valid. Melo being considered one of the top players in the league was a gross overexaggeration by nikkas who value scoring ONLY.

You Fat Melo lovers are always looking for ways to make fat boy look like something more than he is. Been outta the first round ONCE in 8 yrs. Doesn't make his teammates better. He's a second tier star. If you a star in this league you getting criticized when you fail to produce results. Deal with it

See You're Stupid So I Figure You Wouldn't Understand Me.

EVERY Player Should Be Rightfully Criticized. I Dont Know Where In My Post You Somehow Think He Shouldn't Be Criticized Or Is Unfairly Criticized . I Was ONLY Speaking On The Remarks Of Confused Idiots Such As Yourself Who Either Paint Him As A "Franchise Player" Or "Another Danny Granger" Depending On How You Feel Like Judging Him Based On The Argument Your In

These guys Act like melo is the only player who can be criticized yet Kobe Lebron wade Durant Howard cp3 all have room for improvement . Melo is putting up hof numbers so he can't be Danny granger plus melo game will last Long since its not athleticism based

So, it's ok to quit on your team? You just rattled off a bunch of reasons to justify not playing hard. You can be a fan of Carmelo without this vehement defense.

And saying Lebron quiot vs. The Celts is unfair. He had a terrible game five, and that was about it.
