Replace LeBron with Carmelo During the Heat Run

[MellowYellow]

Melo dropped 42/17/6 on Celtics with Jared Jeffries as his biggest help.

Enjoy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IX92j8wp7f8


Melo vs 2011 Celtics: 26 points, 10.3 rebounds, 4.8 assists
LeBron vs 2011 Celtics: 28 points, 8.2 rebounds, 3.8 assists

And Bran had much better teammates which means Celtics defense couldn't have been focused just on him.

Melo >>> Bran

DEAL WITH IT

Finally a voice of reason

[ArbitraryWater]

Melo vs 2011 Celtics: 26 points, 10.3 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 37% shooting (33 of 88! Missing 22 more shots than he made in just FOUR games)
LeBron vs 2011 Celtics: 28 points, 8.2 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 48% shooting (51 of 108)

And LeBron played with Wade while Melo had all the time in the world to go off and carry a poor team and reach high totals. Defensive difference isnt even close.

Bron >>> Melo

DEAL WITH IT

fixed

[Nash]

That's a good boy.

how many rings if they had Gordon Haywood instead of Bron?

2011 - they win, obviously they win. prime wade doe

2012 - Gordon Haywood goes on a mad tear. wins mvp, fmvp as well. when bosh is out, he defends david west with turiaf, haslem, joel anthony and juwan howard at front court.. and they had shooters like miller and battier going off. how can't they?

2013 - obviously they win. superstar bosh goes off and becomes the new Duncan goat PF since no lebron on team. also ray allen is there since he took his talents to join Gordon Haywood in South Beach.

2014- win, new medical procedure that rejuvanates wade's knees and he goes back to having 19 year old knees.

Don't forget Gordon Hayward is the best NBA player ever....

BTW it's Hayward, not Haywood.

Melt...down.

2011 is nowhere near a lock....

Melo wouldn't bring half the defense LeBron did.

This is what LeBron did on Parker in 2013:

Game 6: 6-26 =23%
Game 7: 3-12 =25%

Melo is a career 41% playoff scorer and he's supposed to lead the 2012-2014 Heat to 3 straight finals and a title?

Obviously he would be the clear sidekick in 2011...

What about the playmaking? rebounding? The reason the ENTIRE Heat's swarming defense was even possible was due to LeBron's defensive versatility......

How is Melo replacing LeBron's production??? How is Melo closing out Boston Game 4, Boston Game 5, Chicago Game 2, Chicago Game 5??

Wade was doing 19 ppg on 41% in the 2011 ECF, that looks VERY Melo like...

Melo shot 38% in 2011.... 42% the next year... 41% the year after that.... Sure, he is matching peak LeBron's production over teams they barely went by....

2012 Pacers in 6, 2012 Celtics in 7, 2013 Pacers in 7, 2013 Spurs in 7... They're not beating any of those teams. Not one.

****ing idiot. Heat played the same swarming defense prior to Bron, using it in the same way in the 08-09 season with Chalmers/Wade/Marion on the perimeter. Chalmers even got 9 steals in i think his second NBA game due to Spoelstra's emphasis on perimeter disruption (and particularly, attacking the ball handler).

I know you think everything can just be magically credited to Lebron as if no one else existed or mattered, but that's only because you're an annoying stan with no life.
