Didn't care for the guy initially, I thought he was a huge knucklehead. Dumb things said publically, DUI, etc....

I don't know if it was the Olympics or just maturity, but when I just watch his game without the nonsense, dude is a beast.

I hope he continues to let his game speak for itself.

Melo is fucking awesome! Kobe's got nothing for him...NOTHING. I love how Melo always has that big smile...he's probably thinking of all the $$$ he's gonna get next year. :D

Great player yes... but he's still a little bitch for slapping another man then running off.

the dude is a fucking stud, i share the opinion that he's a knucklehead and can't say i'm the biggest fan of his character but he's been killing it so far during these playoffs.

Still seems like a punk and a bitch, but there's no question that he's elevated his game, particularly in these playoffs. Offensively, he's up there with Kobe in terms of all around skill as a pure scorer, maybe even has him by a bit because he can score in the post more effectively and he gets a lot of offensive rebounds for putbacks. He can still improve on his game too, which is pretty impressive. Too bad he really is a punk.

The way he can score from anywhere on the court, combined with his size and his skill at offensive rebounds and putbacks... call me crazy, but the scoring side of his game reminds me of Larry Bird.

I like watching players grow into their game, and Carmelo is doing just that. The punk attitude can push me away, but he seems to have, no pun intended, mellowed.
