Spin: How good would Carmelo be if he lost weight?

[OG Talk]

He's in the best shape of his career and has obviously lost weight since he first came to NY...

He looks in much better shape this year than he has in the past where he clearly was fat.

Deron Williams however....that's an athlete?

Haha.

But nah Williams looks like shyt. How can you play PG at that weight?

Not as good. Dude's weight adds to his strength.

Melo is one of the strongest players at his position in the league.

Maybe. But when Love got skinny he did become a better player and he still bodies ppl on the glass.

diff. situation though because Love has a rebounding skill that arguably nobody else in the NBA has. he's all about positioning & naturally has the lower body strength needed for it.

And Melo is at the point in his career where he's better at the 4 & needs the added strength to take the hits & back these younger dudes down like he's been doing.

I wouldn't be shocked if he dunks on somebody like that again if the opportunity comes though.
