Is he a top 5 player? Maybe
Is he a top 10 player? Probably
Can you build a team around him? Sure
Can he win a title by himself? Hell no
Amare + Anthony sounds good, but they will need at least 1 other super star ( Chris Paul) plus good role players. Do they have the money for that? Is their coach good enough to win 4 seven game series in the playoffs when his teams aren't known for defense?
It sounds like Carmelo Anthony is the modern day version of Kevin Garnett. He can score some points, get into the all star game, but he's not good enough to win on his own. He needs to be lumped together with other good players to have a chance at winning a title. He's no Lebraun or Kobe.
