    Calling d league vets and a talented draft class and washing them pulling up 30 plus point games and almost a triple double is unproven? Let's not act like he was going up against high schoolers

    There's a reason magic likes lonzo it's cuz he sees himself in him pass first then score

    Lebron and Carmelo are just scorers

    I don't think Melo at any point in his career made his teammates better directly but he was a star at on point and his gravity made his teammates better. Just him being on the court made it easier for his teammates to operate.

    Now he's just a washed player who doesn't even try to run the system the coach is implementing. He's a black hole on offense. If the ball goes to him he's isoing for a shot.

    No, I'm one of those ppl that don't think scoring 22 pts per game is inherently impressive. An in the case of Melo it's not impressive.

    let's not act like just 2 seasons ago, melo didn't have a career high in assists. 4 assists a game is solid for a sf not named lebron

    So are you saying that Melo tried to run the triangle but couldn't because Rose couldn't run it? Because I agree with half of that. Rose was not good in the triangle offense. But Melo was also not good in the triangle offense and it wasn't because of Rose.
