The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people that Melo is a superstar player

Coach of the year defensive player of the year and sixth man of the year.

Since when is leading a team to the finals and losing an accomplishment? I thought since it was the East it wasn't legit. :troll:

Nobody disrespecting AI, he's a top 100 NBA player of all time. But I have Ray Allen over him.

we gotta sticky this shyt at some point cause it comes up monthly:

Yes A.I.' s finals team had the coach of the year, dpoy, and sixth man of the year. Here's the thing tho:

the dpoy, Mutombo, played 26 games with the sixers. Theo fukking Ratliff was A.I.'s center and they were a no. 1 seed before the Mutombo trade

the sixth man of the year, McKie, average 11 points a game and that was a cyse because he started almost half the games.

the coach of the year shyt is tied to the success of the team, which was clearly spearheaded by A.I. and his 31 a night. His second leading scorer was 11.7 per game Mutombo.

Yes that team was good defensively but if you were there you KNOW A.I.'s back should be broken in 2 from carrying that squad

all that said, if you got Shuttlesworth over A.I.,:manny:

I just hate when people run to that "but a.i. had all the award winners" shyt when he get brought up. That team was trash.

I understand the anti-Melo shtick. He's not on LeBron's level, and he's not as versatile as prime Wade. The whole "superstar" tag is so subjective.

Carmelo Anthony is a wildly talent, very specific player. One that could definitely succeed and win a championship, but would need the perfect system/coach around him. He's not the kind of guy you can plug in on any roster, or swap in for any roster's best player and instantly make that team a contender.

Why do y'all hate Melo so much on here?


It makes no sense, and most of it is because he's NOT LeBron :stopitslime:

Throughout the history of the god damn NBA the MAJORITY of small forwards have played more like Melo than Bron.


The hate honestly makes no sense.

Who did AI have in all his good years as a worthy running mate aside from Melo? AI led a team to the Finals with Mutumbo as the next best player. Da fukk a Ray Allen led team ever do? :childplease:

The AI disrespect needs to stop. :camby:

While shooting 38% from the field. And I'm not exaggerating either. He took 30 shots to score those 31 points. Any other player would have gotten killed for that type of inefficiency. His team won games when he shot 5 for 27. What does that tell you? The Sixers were "good" that year because they played the best defense in a very bad Eastern Conference. I'm not saying AI was a bad player, but dudes love to overrate him and put him on the Kobe/Wade/McGrady level. When he clearly wasn't anywhere as good as those guys.

Thing is, he actually was killed for that inefficiency. He still is til this day.

My problem is, when it comes to A.I. people really try to cyse his teammates like he aint run with shytty squads all his prime. You talking bout Kobe, Wade and T-mac...all 3 of those guys are in my top 5 favorite players, Wade no.1. But we really gone act like Kobe and Wade weren't surrounded with great talent and won as a result? Mac never been out the first round til he was warming the spurs bench. A.I. got to the finals with an underwhelming ass team. I acknowledged the defense in my post but you gotta put numbers on the board too.You gotta have a nikka that take shyt over. A.I. was that. He was scoring champ and steals leader. He won MVP. They got a game in the finals on an undefeated Laker squad cause AI went for 48. Why cant we give him that? That's my only thing. nikkas always asterisking his accomplishments.... The nikka 5'11, 165. To carry a team like he did, win scoring titles, make all nba year in and out.. he was a great player. Anybody else with that resume would be lauded as fukk. Because its him, its like "well,he shot too much" fukk was he supposed to do with them teams? fukk is Kobe posed to do with Smush Parker and them..or Wade with JO and Beasley or Tmac with Mike Miller...I hate when people do that. ..He got with Melo, his shots came down, his shot percentage/assists shot up. Unfortunately, they ran into the west conference champs in the first round each year. It just crazy to me how shytted on he gets on here. Dude's an alltimer, let him be that. Not saying you in particular, just sayin :yeshrug:

By my standards only Bron, kd, and Anthony Davis are superstars.


But melo is a great player and a great offensive cornerstone

What they should say is ai didn't have a lot of help offensively but there is no way one player can carry bums to the NBA finals
