Who you taking RIGHT now....Marc or DJ?
Billups and AI were the alphas on that team. Yes Melo was the best player, but he wasn't the Alpha. He needs someone giving him the ball in the right spots, that's why he excels on the USA team. He doesn't have to dominate the ball. Going to the Knicks has proved all of that because he's in a far weaker conference and can't even sniff the playoffs. If he was a great Alpha they could at least make the 8th seed every year barring the year he shut it down for injury.The end of your theory makes no sense to me because he clearly wasn't a sidekick on the Nuggets, he was the alpha dog. And in the 54 win Knicks season he was the alpha dog. I don't see how his lack of help has shown he is better as a sidekick ::Kanye shrug::Melo needs another Chauncey Billups to get him into his game. When Melo is the lone superstar and he's trying to do everything himself he's garbage. That's the sole problem with the Knicks. The whole time Melo has been on the Knicks he hasn't had a good solid PG that will feed him the ball when he needs it. When he was on the Nuggets that team was ballin. They were one Trevor Ariza steal from making the finals. They had it man and Melo was incredible. All the Knicks teams have shown is that Melo is a better sidekick than alpha dog.
I also don't understand how he consistently can't make the playoffs but before this Knicks stuff the last 3 seasons, he and Tim Duncan were the only 2 players in the league to make the playoffs every season
But how because we had the best example of it in OKC. Two incredible players but Russ was clearly the Alpha and KD was the Beta.
This whole idea around "alpha" and "beta" has to be the worst **** to hit sports debates in a long long time.

All the betas in the world want to follow Westbrook. All the other betas think kd is a ***** for being a beta
Melo is definitely to blame for his situation.
