Of course he is. He was set up to fail though. He took Denver to the playoffs in his rookie season, which led to him never getting help through the draft like KD did. KD won what? 15 games his rookie season? Then got Russ the following year?

The best player Melo has ever played with is who? A past it STAT or a past it A.I? And led his teams to the playoffs every year besides last year which was just a disaster all around (Tyson leg break, Stat being STAT, Bargs injured, Felton Gun Charge, Woody being incompetent, JR poor play following a MARY suspension.) Last year was a disaster and he still balled out.

You got people putting AD and K-Love in their top 5s and neither one has ever made the playoffs. Yet Melo is somehow out of the top 10.

I dont know when it happened, but somewhere along the line the media made Melo the guy to hate. Bullshyt rumors like "he doesnt stick D" :childplease: that the sheeple run with like its gold . I watch all Knicks games and most of his games going back to the Orange. Melo sticks defense and is capable of lockdown, but he is generally a slightly above AVG defender.

Fact is in the West, Melo never had that second guy, and was going up against JUGGERNAUT teams like the Lakers and Spurs and Phoenix.

He got to NY and his hypothetical wingman can't even stay healthy.

With the success he's had alone. If Melo had a legit #2 option, he'd have a ring by now. Melo alone can get wins. He's proved that more than anyone.

Not even LBJ made the playoffs his rookie year IN THE EAST. Nor KD. he didnt win anything until WB developed. . LBJ didn't win a ring until Wade and Bosh. CP3 hasn't ever made it to the conference finals even with Blake and the Clip squad. Last season nikkas was sayin PG was the 3rd best SF in the league after ONE good half of a season.

No one can do it alone. At all. Melo will have his time though. Im not even worried about it.

Melo alone, can get you more wins than any player in the league. But everyone has a limit

People forget Carmelo was 2 wins away from going to the Finals in a brutal Western Conference. He led the Knicks to a 54 win season with JR Smith as his second best teammate.

If he wanted a better chance at winning he would have signed with the Bulls. That was his chance. Or he could have just stayed in Denver.

I'm just saying he has to take blame for some of this.

What's funny to me is that people make it seem like the Bulls would have guaranteed him a ring. No one even knows if Rose is going to stay healthy. Plus he looked bad in Fiba Play.

For all we know Rose could get injured again (HOPE NOT :to:) and then Melo would have taken a 42 million dollar paycut, to be stuck waiting for him to get healthy. I dont see why peoople kept making it seem like the bulls were his best option.

Melo PR people worked hard to clean up his image, the media wanted to make him AI 2.0.
especially after that whole no snitching thing popped off

Him getting a Max contract means nothing, Joe Johnson is underrated if we being honest

He's on the same level as KD, and Bron, yet I see cats like Harden, S.Curry, P.george ranked ahead of him on list

2012-2013 season he should have won MVP
yeah Bron numbers was crazy, but so was Melo
and Mvp isn't based on numbers, it's on the impact you have on you're team
he took a Knicks team Most predicted to be a 6-8 seed to the #2 seed
and the Knicks were like the Most injured team that Year

I didn't say he would have won a ring if he went to the Bulls. I said he would have a significantly better chance if he did.

This is just a terrible post. Did you think before you hit post reply?
Why are you replying if you are not going to state any thing relevant...?

Melo is a good scorer, but he needs to be on a team with a strong leader, because Melo is NOT "that guy"...

Put Melo on the Cleveland Teams that LeBron took the Playoffs, and they would still suck...

How you gone play basketball all your life and walk around with all that baby fat....come on man...His body type tells you everything about the dude...he is NOT "that guy"...?:mjlol:

Is he lying? How many passes Chris Paul get?

hawks fans were comparing him to Josh Smith on here that's how absurd some of these people are.
