    Default if Melo retired today, what is his greatest accomplishment?

    The scoring title?

    I'll give some examples using other top tier players (because Melo is top-tier, right?):

    Kobe: "I'm a 5-time NBA champion."
    LBJ: "I'm a 4-time league MVP and NBA champion."
    Duncan: "I'm a 4-time NBA champion."
    Nowitzki: "I'm an NBA champion."

    Hell, we can even use Durant as an example:

    Durant: "I led my team to the Finals."

    What about Melo?

    Melo: "I led the league in scoring... once."

    Single handedly leading his college to a national title.

    Something no other top 10 player in the NBA can say

    It can't be the Olympic golds because he was one of the many many many stars as opposed to *THE* star. If not the scoring title then what is it then?

    1. All-Rookie First Team
    2. Became first NBA rookie to lead a playoff team in scoring, since David Robinson.
    3. MVP of Rookie Challenge (2005) (This was that Rookie vs. Sophomore squad).
    4. Turned the Denver Nuggets from a laughing stock into a playoff contending team.
    5. Leading Syracuse to a NCAA title.

    Just to name a few.

    Which one is his greatest career accomplishment though? If Kobe retired today, he could say 5x NBA champion. If LBJ retired today, he could say 4x MVP. Melo?
