So the Rockets lose to the Hawks and Clippers to the Celtics.

Y'all sure the West is better then the East outside of the Warriors and Spurs?

them PAUL PIERCE chants
put him back in the game!

 

[HIM]

 

 

Pierce was able to make other players better. Melo.....

Pierce made his teammates so much better they didnt make the playoffs like his first 3 years with them. Melo.....

Knicks on their way to missing the playoffs for the 4th season in a row

If you wanna say Pierce > Melo fine I'm not gonna bother arguing that. If you say Pierce > Melo cuz he made his teammates better thats BS.

Nuggets never had a losing season with Melo on the squad. Can't say the same for the celtics and Pierce.
Is it cuz one of them made their teammates better while the other didnt?
Did Melo make his nuggets teammates better but couldnt make the Knicks into a perennial contender? Or is it that the nuggets made Melo better?
But then that would mean that his shortcomings in NY arent his fault which NT would never cosign.
Maybe he just stopped making people better? How do you even make someone better?

Well this is simple. The Eastern conference is better than the Western conference and has been for the entirety of Carmelo's career.

Doc is acting like the crowd are calling for Scalabrine

 

[glennvagmire]

How is Carmelo better than Pierce when Pierce dunked on 3 people before? Also Pierce can catch and shoot a pass from Rondo. How is Carmelo better when he didn't win the championship with Iverson? I don't get it. Pierce is way better his 3pt % is better in playoffs.

Pierce also could pass to Ray Allen off screens and Rondo on the cut. He's better.

Blake is right, that's not a foul.
