Melo is top 5 don't let the knicks record fool you

 

[tyonenine]

Melo is top 5 don't let the knicks record fool you

El oh el


He's the top 1 playoff loser if that makes you feel any better.

 

[jabroni jenkins]

I hope all you dudes that think melo is top 5 arent the same dudes that said he wasnt a superstar at the beginning of the season

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

what is a superstar?

 

[finallyfamous]

Bron
Durant

everyone else.

Period.

You can rank all you want

 

[100027]

what is a superstar?

Look at what Dirk does with the Mavs every year. In the west.

Then think about what Carmelo does every year.

Then think about the fact that you called Carmelo Anthony a top 5 player.

 

[Bert.]

If Melo goes to Chicago, will he get the same criticism for leaving his hometown team as Lebron?



Lebron got bashed for leaving his hometown team and teaming up with 2 all-stars in their prime. he got roasted for joining another superstar's team.

if Melo leaves, he'll be ditching his hometown team and teaming up with 2 all-stars in their primes (one of whom is a former MVP and other who is a current MVP candidate). he would also be joining another superstar's team.


(let's not even mention he'd also have arguably the best coach in basketball and an excellent supporting cast)


will Melo get the same criticism as Lebron?> If Melo goes to Chicago, will he get the same criticism for leaving his hometown team as Lebron?


something tells me the answer is "no"



something tells me that in Summer of 2014 - The Hypocrisy Will Continue> If Melo goes to Chicago, will he get the same criticism for leaving his hometown team as Lebron?

Melo wasnt born in NY, he was born and raised and played HS in NY. he owes NY and the Knicks NOTHING

please dont compare the two.

 

[jjs07]

Unless they are the Baltimore Knicks, Melo ain't leaving his "hometown." Get outta here w/ that...

Apples and Oranges.


Look at the Knicks roster. Look at their obese PG. He has no help.

Brian Windhorst write that piece?

Guys career will be a series of excuses. Already is.

If Dirk was on the Knicks they'd be in the playoffs easily. That's called leadership. That's what separates Anthony from actual great players. He doesn't have the mental makeup to take any team anywhere.

One day hopefully he'll learn to be a follower and then maybe he can win some playoff games behind somebody else.

 

[xbiker47]

Melo leaving the Knicks is nothing even close to Bron leaving Cleveland

 

[jabroni jenkins]

The only reason lebron got backlash was because everybody thought he could do it on his own, everybody knows melo cant do **** with that knicks squad even though this knicks team is more talented then lebrons best cavs teams

 

[imsneakerpimp]

Its almost impossible to guard Melo. He's gotta take himself out the game mentally for this to happen.

Melo is  top 5. The end

 

[finallyfamous]

The 08/09 Cavs team would destroy any of Melos Knicks team.

Don't be stupid

Nah

Who's your top 5?

You have to make other players better to be top 5.

You definitely can't make other players worse.

He would be top 5 in a 1v1 tourney though.

This list does not include Kevin Love therefore it is not valid.

 

[dt43]

Son.. is anybody watching the end of Philly-Boston? What is Rondo doing? Tell me he was not deliberately instructed to blow the game

They were down 3 with the ball with 15s, he pounds the ball for like 10sec then dribbles out of bounds

I said more talented, read my brotha

We still use hypotheticals to get a point across

 

[certifiedflyboi23]

I don't remember Kobe ever making anyone better but I'm sure at one point he was in everyone's top 5...

I disagree. Thats what you have to do to win. 

To be a top 5 player you just have to be one of the TOP 5 Players.

Blake already d-bo'd his spot as top pf tho

 

[$tacy]

Kobe's a winner tho
