um...he isn't. Melo isn't even close to the Durant/Lebron/Wade level of scoring output. | ||

He's better sometimes [like the recent NY run] but on the whole he's highly inefficient. Except when he's playing with them on team USA. Then his delusions of being one their level actually HELP him and he plays as well or better than JAmes, Kobe and the gang. | ||

Have you looked at their FG% and individual scoring seasons? Melo is no where near their level. When you add in playoffs and the defenses faced Melo just gets obliterated. He's literally not even in the conversation. | ||

Durant and Melo are more shooters then drivers as Wade and Lebron are, so normaly % wise they will be less efficient. But i don't really judge scorers by their playoff performances. You have to be a winner in playoffs, not only scorer. But ultimately it will come to comparing wins and performances in palyoffs. Only Wade with a ring from that bunch atm.. | ||

Big Carmelo fan here and practically every statistical measurement, from the most basic to the most convoluted, puts him a fair bit below elite. He has a lot of some nice moves face up and post, range, a good body with decent athleticism. But for some reason, his scoring just isn't where its reputation is. | ||
