He was borderline for a while. In 12-13 probably put him there.

Reddit boys hate melo something serious though. Get some :mjpls: vibes off all that vitriol. But melo kinda easy to hate on tbh :yeshrug:

@Francis White is one of them. I quite sure he is a white man, posing as a black man for this forum. Look at all his posts in any Melo related threads.

That one season on the knicks is his only season that he was arguably top 5. Outside of that? Nope

Anyone who talks down on ISO scoring doesn't know basketball. And Melo was definitely a top scorer in the league at one point.

The way I see it, if Melo was never a top 5 player than neither was Durant, or Kobe, etc...

Or Dirk

Melo was just an elite scorer who really did not do much else on the court. The game evolved and he was unable to adapt.

Not sure about 2009, he didn't even make the AS team that year or even receive a single MVP vote :manny: His teammate Billups actually ended up 6th in voting that season.

2013 he was imo: Bron & KD were clearly better, and you could argue Kobe (but he tore his Achilles that year). He also ended up 3rd in the MVP voting.

Kobe was better. He got hurt at the very end of the year after all his heroics

Kobe was killing it towards the end of the season but Melo was probably more consistent season round. Even then, it'd still make Melo top 5 that year :manny:
