Kobe and Duncan have both been more successful than Melo the past couple of years.
Wait, I might have misread
Are we counting success as making zero noise in the playoffs year after year? Because on that note, Melo is wildly more successful than Kobe and Duncan, and probably every player not playing for a lottery team

So Paul George RIGHT NOW = Scottie Pippen? lol. PG as of now is more comparable to Luol Deng from about 2-3 yrs ago. a better ball handling/passing version. Scottie was a point forward/ super elite defender, who could score efficiently at a high clip as a second option. a very rare player. Does Paul George have the potential to be that? Possibly. But right now, hes not that.
People saying Melo isn't hofer know there's referees in the hot there's a guy in the that didn't even average 10 points

Gordon Hayward is better than Paul George, though.

No, I dont think Paul George will ever be that.
But I never said anything about Paul George = Scottie Pippen, I was just responding to you saying that Bruce Bowen >>>> Melo

I like PG but I think people are rushing his progression , he's on his way not there yet though with the elite guys.
He's mid tier
lets see him do it again for a season or two before he gets bumped up a notch.

Because nobody expects anything from Jamal Crawford, and I like obscure NBA records, Jamal Crawford holds 2 of my favorite

Gordon Hayward is good, but ain't he a sixth man?
Y'all fools thinking PG ain't better than Hayward.

That depends on who you're 3 seed is, hopefully its Brooklyn or New York because that will definitely not be a sweep.
I think we have a chance against both.
Don't forget about Big DRE!!!!!!

Bruh, look at what Kobe and Dirk have done since 2010/2011. Duncan doesn't qualify for this discussions since he isn't the Spurs number one option.
Sweeps/getting bounced out the first round. Since that time, Melo has been a better number one option.
And this Paul George nonsense has to stop. Let him become great. If he's going to be this top tier number one option then let it happen. As it stands now, he's not a number one option, and surely not even close to Carmelo Anthony. Paul George is closer to the JR Smith's, Eric Gordon's, and OJ Mayo's, Iguodala's, and Luol Deng's of the world than a Carmelo Anthony.
