I knew Melo would get over rated as soon as he became a Knick but this is just ridiculous.

[QUOTE=Jasi]I'd like to see them... Bear in mind that all those plays were with set defenses.[/QUOTE]
Watched pretty much every Clippers game. Griffin doesn't make those types of plays. He'll have the occasional fast break cross over, but never like that on set defences.

Melo has been the 2nd or 3rd best SF for 7 years now.:confusedshrug:
[QUOTE=Ronin]1. Lebron
2. Durant
3. Anthony
4. Pierce
5. Iguodala[/QUOTE]
iguodala is a great defensive player, but not top 5 material
i'd be granger ahead of him

Rudy Gay is easily and has been better than him for 2 years now.
Michael Beasley is as good as Danny Granger

not yet at least. Granger is better than Beasley at pretty much everything. :confusedshrug:
Ill take Beasley over Granger to. Granger is a good shooter who can barely create his own shot. One trick pony. Beasley is a complete offensive player who is good at everything but not great at alot besides Mid range shooting

Nope not scoring, and they're both equal at playmaking.
Beasley is a better scorer (more versatile, clutch,etc)
Both equal in playmaking
Danny is a better defender

This too

He's been second to Lebron, but IMO it is clear that Durant has surpassed him.
Lebron/Durant
Durant/Lebron
Melo
That's how I see it.
I hate LeBron James to death.
But that doesn't matter, he IS the best small forward plain and simply. People take off the bias glasses.
LeBron
Durant
Melo
Pierce
Gay
Bye..
1. Lebron
2. Durant
3. Melo
4. Trevor Booker
Tell me one thing besides 3 point shooting that Durant can do better than Melo.
Melo = better ball handling, better rebounder, better mid range shooter, better post game, etc.

It's actually funny but Melo had a better 3-pt % last season than Durant :lol
Especially in New York,he was draining threes like crazy.I'm pretty sure it was over 40% while playing in NY.
[B]By the way,stats per 36 minutes:
Melo: 25.8 PPG , 7.4 RPG , 2.9 APG 46/38/84 %
Durant: 25.6 PPG , 6.3 RPG , 2.5 APG 46/35/88 %[/B]
