Poor underachieving millionaire not in the most unwatchable game of the year. Really something to spend your energy on, Goat. Well done.

Clueless. Being selected to all star is confirmation of your ability. The game means nothing. It's for the resume and self confidence. Whenever any player sizes up Melo to guard him, they know he's one of the best in the world. If you follow my wagers past few weeks you'd prolly be up 10 grand. Take notes.

Carmelo is not an allstar this season. He cant even cry the knicks to the playoffs in the EAST.

He never takes any team to the playoffs

The kind of all star they want to ship him out of new York now...go figure

Goat....stop complaining and pay your debts!!

swordsandtequila · 01-30-17, 10:50 AM

He's a black hole on offense, doesn't make his teammates better and doesn't play defense. But hey, he can score.

They will never get it. Paul Pierce has called him the hardest player he has ever had to guard. These people who hate him, think he's garbage, and a team killer are the ones that complain about how bad it is to watch the NBA. Oh, and think no one plays defense. Basketball isn't a strength of SBR posters. No point in arguing.

I guess Paul Pierce hasn't a clue. Or the fact he's the highest scorer in USA basketball Olympic history, and the only one with three Gold medals. Just me being a homer, you're right. He's terrible.

Cuse I laid it out quite simply,you said it yourself you think Carmelo is one of the greats,so maybe its you that needs to reconsider what a great is,not someone that just scores and does f@ck all as far as carrying his team on his back.

Cuse0323 · 01-30-17, 01:27 PM

You're right. He's not a first ballot HOFer, and is awful. You win.

packerd_00 · 01-30-17, 01:30 PM

We all have are opinion man,but saying none of us have a clue about Basketball because we don't agree. I wasn't trying to argue,just have a debate,its not personal.

Auto Donk · 01-30-17, 01:31 PM

without readin any of the other posts here due to time contrainsts (ie, this has probably been mentioned), I'll go out on a limb and say maybe the other players and the leauge didn't want to catch this "cancer" and take it back to their own teams.....?

jjgold · 01-30-17, 01:35 PM

He is a 1st ballot hall of famer

Just a ball hog great scorer that could not lead any team he played on

I don't wanna get personal. If I did, I apologize. Agree to disagree, and we can move on. I've been having this argument for too long. I just know the man, and watch him more than most. So, maybe it is personal to me. I just think there's this false narrative about him out there. He's not LeBron. I get that. I'm not saying he's the greatest of all time, just that he's far from garbage, and highly respected by his peers.

Just my opinion. We could go back, and forth but no point. Again, my bad for getting personal on people's Basketball acumen.

can't play defense

doesn't make players around him better

never won shit in the NBA

great, he can score points on a losing team every year

winning 3 gold medals does not impress me...the USA wins gold almost every Olympics..he simply opted in more than others

all that said, I am impressed by his wife's rack

WalkingLuckCharm · 01-30-17, 05:17 PM

Everyone should know by now melo is overrated.

Come on... This discussion died 5 years ago.

League has a million scoring talents. Need more than scoring to win

gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "I'd like to take it to the rack!!!!"

djpremier36 · 01-30-17, 05:56 PM

All star selections are about who is having the best CURRENT year. It's not a career achievement award. Melo is a great scorer, and that's it!

Goat burying himself as usual. Worried about the state of Carmelo's "self confidence and resume". I'm sure Carmelo sits around at night worried about you too bro. You'd do just great as an NBA GM, Goat, building your team around Melo as a centerpiece

iceman02 · 01-31-17, 02:16 PM

Carmelo is so overrated.

I've seen amaretto carry the knicks.

I've seen Jeremy lin will the knicks to the playoffs.

What has Carmelo done in NYC to even be praised?

He absolutely does not bring anything to the table when it comes to making players around you better. He is better coming off the bench on a good team at this point.

KKoz9 · 02-01-17, 06:13 PM

There's more than 12 players better - the only reason he scores so much is because he shoots 25-30 times a game.
