No. Joe Johnson can easily replace him, and Jamison is a better low-post scorer.
Wade with back-to-back 3's, 25-9 USA. Wade >>> Carmelo.

its easy to make jumpers off the dribble against man defense. What about off a zone catch and shoot when it isnt looking like a blowout

Bro, if Melo was Sooo good his team wouldn't have got swept out of the Playoffs. Lebron and wade would never let that happen. Melo is good but he is slightly below those two overall.

Wade is better in the NBA. Melo is better in FIBA
Melo was also better in college than Wade.
FIBA and NBA are two different games.

You think it's a slam dunk to say that Carmelo is a better mid range jump shooter than Wade while it's NOT. Wade has been extremely efficient from around 20 foot and he beat Dallas and Detroit by hitting J after Js. And those 20 footers will translate into international 3 points nicely as we've seen in the 1st quarter. Not to mention Wade is a primary ball-handler on the team even with Hinrich or Paul on the court.
Carmelo has been playing better than expected, but he's still not as important as James or Wade on this team.

Yeah, but it looks like you have to pay, and it's only for the championships. I don't see any live streaming video on that page. Maybe I'm blind.
