Melo has the best offensive repertoire in the league, but Durant is the best scorer because that J is automatic :wow: Bron the Renaissance man though, just does it all out there :lawd:

That's what it is, Melo can beat you in so many ways, you take away one thing and he can switch up and beat you in another way. but Durant got that unstoppable J, he can always get it off because he's a 6'10 nikka with a high release point and a good stroke, pause.

Kobe can still play dense when he wants. He shut Ivring last night on a couple possessions, but yes overall his defense has been terrible so far.

Anyone can play defense when they want. He just never wants to unless it's something personal. He just sits back, plays defense for 2-3 games a year, and lets those 1st team defense awards roll in.

Brolic... Alcoholics
So why didnt you just say you think Melo is better instead of using these fakkit tactics for thread views

the fukk you all butt hurt for? becuz Kobe didnt say LeBron. LeBron knows he's the best in basketball. why the fukk are you touchy for?



anyway... I've always preferred Melo's game to LeBron's becuz its more about skill and less about athleticism. tho LeBron has come a long way with his skill. still a lil choppy in the post but so much better than he was 3 or 4 yrs ago.

Nothing wrong with that statement there. I think Melo has the most diverse offensive game in the league but i still think KD is the better pure scorer.

NBA -- Los Angeles Lakers may be eying LeBron James in 2014 - ESPN

2014-15 season, and you'll see something else: The Lakers' projected payroll is almost completely clear. Only Nash is signed for that season, at $9.7 million

In July 2014, Bryant's $30.4 million, Pau Gasol's $19.2 million, Metta World Peace's $7.7 million, Steve Blake's $4 million and Jordan Hill's $3.5 million will come off the books

Opposing teams that are making their own long-range free agency plans think they see the Lakers' plan coming into focus. As it stands, L.A. will have enough cap space to add a superstar like James.



"It's not a mistake that all those deals end the same year Kobe's does. They have probably been planning for their next phase for a while," said one general manager. "The Busses and [Lakers GM] Mitch [Kupchak] are always thinking about the next big deal."

Durant's jumper and his length and the fact that he is more athletic gives him an advantage over Melo.

Melo sometimes struggles finishing at the rim because he isn't athletic as he used to be.
