[WolfGang]

He may not be a winner but he is still a really good player. He still has a chance to win guys. He has never relied on athleticism so his basketball career will be longer than others like Dwyane Wade.

True test for Phil Jackson and Derek Fisher's influence. Lets see what he can accomplish after a couple of seasons with them.

*Missed playoffs in a weak East by "leading" his team to 37-45.


True test for Phil Jackson and Derek Fisher's influence. Lets see what he can accomplish after a couple of seasons with them.

His problem is he is already 30. By the time Jackson can build a team, assuming he is adept at doing so as a GM, he will have declined. He most likely has only 2-3 elite seasons left and another 2-3 all-star caliber seasons after that. It is rare to successfully build around a 30 year old star for a reason. If he wanted to win he should have gone to Chicago...

Hes going to be good in the triangle.

Carmelo sucker punch and run away

Carmelo stop snitching (yes I am aware it is about criminals not snitching on other criminals to get less time ala game theory and not about civilians not snitching on criminals)

[IMObjective]

Quick, someone put together a "good things only" list.

And stop knocking him for not going to chicago, him and his wife love new york, the money was much, much better, and he's confident that he can win with "his" team.

Absolutely nothing lasts forever, and at least money will allow you to do things you want with your limited time on this planet, and after that if you play your cards right, your children and family will also be able to do what they want.

good point.

case in point everyone on these forums disrespect any basketball player playing before the 1980s


in twenty years, people will think of LEbron as the GOAT and Jordan was just the logo on some sneakers

[MellowYellow]

Only missed the playoffs once in his career

Last year was the first losing season he has had

He never played with anyone who made an All-NBA team except for Billups (third team, 2009), Chandler (third team, 2012) and Amar’e (second team, 2011)

Carmelo is averaging 25.3 points for his entire career. Only 13 players averaged at least 25 points, and only 10 have a higher average than Melo: Jordan (30.1), Wilt (30.1), LeBron (27.5), Durant (27.4), Elgin (27.4), West (27.0), Iverson (26.7), Pettit (26.4), Oscar (25.7) and Kobe (25.5). Yes, that’s a list with six Hall of Famers and four future Hall of Famers.

Lead his team to college title

First player since Shaq to average 27 and 8

2 gold medals on usa basketball team

He averaged 20 points or more for each of his first 11 seasons. Only 11 other players accomplished that: Jordan, Wilt, Kareem, LeBron, Shaq, Hakeem, Ewing, Iverson, Pettit, Barry and Erving. Nine Hall of Famers, three future Hall of Famers.

He’s one of 10 players to score 62 points or more in an NBA game.

How much of this was plagiarized from Simmons?

does it matter? I am stating facts, and i'm sure most these scrubs didn't/can't read his article cuz well TLDR

[bluechox2]

had melo signed elsewhere, op would be all over his dick

[CHi1PriDe]

[Mr. Incredible]

I'm ecstatic he did not choose Chicago because I thought they would win the East next year with him. :banana:

[Kblaze8855]

First player since Shaq to average 27 and 8

I am 100% sure both Lebron and Durant have had 27/8 seasons. Lebron with assists Durant with rebounds. Lebron may have it rebounds too.

Such arbitrary cut off points. Love averaged 26-13 a couple years ago, you're telling me that's not better statistically than what Melo averaged?

Ya, but Love is bigger. And Melo is a much better defensive player, Love gives up on d to try to get more rebounds statpadder.

He's really only 41% in the playoffs? :biggums:

[Ai2death]

doesn't matter about arbitrary stats if he doesn't have any hardware to show for it. melo is a loser, plain and simple.

How did your NBA career pan out?

So what you're saying is 95% or the league are losers because they don't have any hardware?

[J Shuttlesworth]

Better than brans finals %
Nope. He shot like 60% this last finals, 46% last year, 47% in 2012

41% is closer to Kobe's finals stats

[SpecialQue]

What's the difference between OP and a bucket of shit?

The bucket.

[moe94]

Standard bran stan retard, brings up fg% :lol :lol


Talking about 2/5

He was directly talking about something you were talking about. You cannot be serious. :biggums:

[NumberSix]

Let's be honest. Carmelo is not even in the "legacy" running. Take the money.

[To4]

I still love him for his Offensive game. especially when he is on a hot streak.

Nah coin24 was talking about 2/5, 41%>40%. Then he brought up brans fg% :oldlol:

Thank you, someone who can read:applause:


I shouldn't expect anything else from these bran tards, they're probably overwhelmed being cavs fans again.. Derp but fg% doe

[GimmeThat]

I guess he's just solid.

not really gonna get better or worse because he loses weight or gain weight.

I guess I can see a skinny Melo being better defensively, but probably gives you that 22-23 PPG instead of 27-29



I'm bored.
But if he wins a ring like Billups.
what is he now? the contending piece to the Bulls team?

[Anfernee]

Let's be honest. Carmelo is not even in the "legacy" running. Take the money.

I would have to agree with this. The best he can do now is become a NY icon and bank on getting checking from sentimental Knicks fans 20 years from now to make appearances cutting ribbons at bank and building openings.

[MellowYellow]

Let's be honest. Carmelo is not even in the "legacy" running. Take the money.

Wrong, what he does now could be the difference between staying just outside the top 50 or moving up to as high as the top 25, with some ecfs or finals appearances and maybe 1 mvp.

Agree, i hate the arbitrary stats just to suit a case.

Like the only player to score x points, with 5.45 rebounds and 3.4 assists, while shooting over 47.6% and having 5 letters in his last name..etc.

Lebron would have no rings and no finals wins without wade and bosh. Melo had more playoff appearances than Lebron. Lebron participated in 0 dunk contests when he lied about entering it. Melo have a better bitch than lebron. Lebron scored 0 points in a fourth quarter finals game. Melo has a better career high in points compared to Lebron

So insecure over a guy you were dreaming about months ago until he said no. So now you feel uncomfortable w a thread w actual discussion on Carmelo that you bump a bunch of nothing w a title you like better?



As sad of a bum pity bump as one could make. You never want to assume someone is a loser in real life because who knows, but sometimes you can spot it pretty easy. Chin up though, I'd suggest start w a job. Then work on friends, then even a guy like you will be able to work on the partner part. 1 step at a time, you can do it. Being a loser isn't a life sentence for anyone

[BigTicket]

* 23-43 career playoff record (worst all time for any player)

There is no way that is the worst of all time. There has to be plenty of players who only played one or two playoff series, and got swept.
