It's not the fact that Jokic is white and can hoop. It's the fact that they trying to say Jokic is better than Melo.

But Jokic is a better player than Melo.

Denver even had success immediately after he left and was led by Ty Lawson and Gallo.

Melo is overrated.

Jokic really is better than Melo if we’re talking about value/impact on a basketball team. G.O.A.T. passing big man.

Melo my guy but I’d only take him over a point center capable of being a one man system like Jokic in the last 5 minutes

It's like this. We seen Melo clones in Jabari Parker and Michael Beasley. Getting buckets is cool but if it takes you 12 seconds to stare a guy down and jack up a contested two then how valuable can you be to a team?

Rudy Gay had the same problem. Melo is the best iteration of that style of scoring but it's just an ineffective way to win games.

You can have that or have a guy that can is 7 foot, shoot threes, post up and whip the ball all around with very little wasted possessions.

the very best offensive players in this era would be a problem to guard whether they play iso ball or whether they play in a motion offense

Melo leading the nuggets to the playoffs in his first year after Denver being perennial losers negates this argument.

Someone brought this up earlier. If Kobe didn’t exist Denver wins a ship
How isolated circumstantial incidents like that have nothing to do with whose better

And the second part is an assumption that Denver would beat Orlando. Orlando was better than Denver.

The only time being a good iso scorerer matters is deep in the playoffs, where both coaches and team defenses are so good that x's and o's aren't enough to earn baskets.
