I don't like Melo......or James...![]()
While LeBron James and Dwyane Wade turn into superstars, Carmelo Anthony is getting worse. He's a ballhog with limited court vision. He also doesn't play defense.
Don't get me wrong, he's a gifted one-on-one scorer. But other than that one aspect of his game, he's nothing special. He's having a lot of off the court issues and the players on the Nuggets have voiced their frustration about him on numerous occasions.
He's young and has a long time to figure it out, but right now he's not a franchise player. Unless Denver can get the rest of the team involved, no way their going to the playoffs.
P.S.
Do jimcs50, ducks and company still say that Carmelo is a better player than LeBron?

LEBRON >>>>>>>>>>>>>Carmelo

I said that Lebron would be a better pro after the 1st year. Check it out.
He is going to be the next Glenn Robinson.
Carmelo assist numbers are not good for being the #1 option on the team and his rebounding is good but could be better. Also, I agree with timvp he is a terrible defender.
Carmelo is a whiny baby. He will never be as good as Lebron because he doesn't make his teammates better. Someday ten years from now, people will be calling the latest overrated ball hog the next Melo.
LeBron and Wade > Anthony.
That said, I still believe 'Melo can be a bonafide star in the league if taught to keep his head screwed on.
I cant stand the guy.
whos trash now Carmelo? You or AK47.
Thats what i thought classless peice of sh...
the olympics did not help anthony
the pregame on 1200 comented on that. he has not been the player he was last year.
whether he came in camp out of shape or tired I do not know
wade or james is better then him now
wade to me is very good
great d
I do not think james is that much if any better then wade
looks like someone *quack* still just won't come out and admit they were wrong *quack*.
last year, they both had good years.
But now, Lebron is deffenantly showing that he's going to be a superstar in this league.
I haven't seen anything from Melo, but it's only the beginning of the year, so who knows
Someone make a topic about over Hyped and over rated players. I need to vent..
I remember how excited I was to get the following rookie cards back in the day.
Manute Bol Keith Van Horn Swan kemp Kerry Kittles Vin Baker Jason Williams Ron Mercer Antwon Walker Chauncey Billups Derrick Anderson just to name a few...
Jeez, it's only his second year. It took a few years for even the great Jordan to play with his teammates.
This man has a point, Anyone remember John Elway and Brett Fave's first year
what about Vince carter?
Is it a sophmore slump? I don't know. But as a wolves fan the most i focus in on him is when he's playing agaisnt Trenton. Its almost ludicrious how he defends him. Other good to great players he defends still beat him from time to time, no biggie but Carmelo ALWAYS tries to isolate and when he does i've yet to see him try to drive. I'm sure he could make a few more shots or at the very least get some fouls but he'll never pass or drive. These ARE things that are overcomed with exp. though. As a fan of a division opponent when the game is on the line at this point i want the ball in carmelo's hand out of EVERYONE on the nuggets.
Thats a good point.
Yeah, it is only his second year, he's scoring as much as he did last year. I think he'll improve throughout this season, but it is clear that James deserved the Rookie OF the Year.
Although a case could have been made for Wade, carried Miami last year with his clutchness when he wasn't hurt.
Right now its a toss up - probably would take James because he bigger, but Wade just seems to have a winning edge about him and playing with Shaq will not hurt him a bit. Either over Anthony by a mile. It is too back Brown has that other guy, what the heck was name so buried = Brown equal a dead weight on developing young talent.

"what about Vince carter?"
Vince Carter is the current version of Dominique Wilkins. All Hype, no heart.
Melo needs to lose some ego quick before he loses all of his credibility. His teenage arrogance is a great argument for age limits in the NBA. then again, Lebron's maturity is one of the best ever arguments against age limits.
LeBron is to Melo
As
Coke is to HCF Cola
Melo I believe enjoyed being the "man" in Denver, now with Martin, Nene etc. he may be forcing his shots to get his points. He will be back when he settles down but along with TMac seem to be the most disappointing of the "NBA" big names this year and that is a "tragedy".

Don't diss Dominique He was a LOT more than a vince carter-like dunker.
I agree Sickdsm. Nique had some heart, and always played hard. He just didn't have a good team, and couldn't get past the Celtics that one year.
As for the poster who said that Melo = Glenn Robinson, you are right on the mark. I was just about to post the same statement.
everytime i see his annoying ads, i dislike him more. lebron > wade >>>>>> melo.
Wade and Lebron are proving that they can play. Wade is going to have a great career and i think that eventually he will be an All - Star, Melo and Lebron will too. But Melo is only going to be an All - Star because he is popular like that, ASG is all about popularity, not necessarily the best players play in the ASG.
I hope Lebron is in the dunk contest this year.
AAFLAAAAAAC!
