I wouldn't give up Dekker for melo

 

[a-friend]

Who even really needs Melo right now? 

Knicks

 

[rbk93]

A deal with Houston would have to involve Capela

No way they trade him for Melo

I was thinking Ariza/Brewer/Beverley would be enough.  Throw in one young talent to entice.

 

[shatterkneesinc]

Why would Houston want Melo?

To take the ball away from Harden

soft *** dudes getting worked by security and a taser

seth killing the jazz like older bruh does it

Damn.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Rockets shot 61 threes tonight. Melo isn't an upgrade

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Why do people hate Melo so much ? Theirs plenty of inefficient volume scorers in the league who never garner this much hate and disrespect.

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Max Cat Barnes

 

[starboy]

****** hate Melo and love Chandler Parsons around here.

**** is crazy 

 

[dman14]

deron williams shaqtin a fool with that shot
use up the clock ramen head!

 

[you go boy]

this is why dwill sucks at being a PG... why would you shoot the ball with time left on the clock when you have the last possession? you miss the shot and the other team makes a 3.... i could understand if he was open but it was a bad shot in general

 

[friscostylez]

Dwill is a bum

 

[dman14]

bad pass
barnes wasnt even gonna get a shot off running away from the basket

there's a bunch of them that don't get all the shine as well
michael redd, joe johnson, demar, etc

Dwight Howard is still really good.
He could dominate if he was just wired for competition as opposed to being non-confrontational and appeasing.

Sidenote:Harden has to be the coolest Cat in the League

 

[JD617]

Yeah but people didn't spend years calling those other guys top 5 in the league or the "best pure scorer" or put them on the same plane as LeBron and Durant.

none of those are on prime melo's level

I like Melo (or used to back in Denver) but I ain't gonna lie that best pure scorer **** used to annoy the hell out of me too. 

 

[kingfoamnyc]

In his prime he could post, shoot great from midrange, and was a respectable 3 point shooter. That's a well rounded offensive game. Also earlier in his career people loved the fact that he took Syracuse to the chip and won it and absolutely killed LeBron and Durant in head to head matchups. He just never excelled to that next level like everyone else did but to be fair he never had the help or leadership qualities to do so.

Mike Redd, JJ, Demar are not on Melo's level bro

He hasn't won jack **** but he's going straight to the hall of fame as one of the best scorers of his generation. 25 & 7 for your career is nothing to scoff at even if it's not at a 47% + clip.

melo at least was on durant level. but durant never been on bron level. durant, even being elite, still a tier below bron. imo

When was Melo the 2nd best player in the NBA?
