    NO argument here. I am not even a big melo fan, but I respect his game. Hopefully he can make a run a the playoffs with the new players they got.

    The Melo slander is merely a byproduct of social media and people overindulging in the fact that they have a "voice" that can garner a reaction. 

    If there were message boards and twitter back in the day...you'd have alot of HOF'ers getting "slandered" too. It just is what it is.

    Fact is = The NBA is the premier basketball league in the world. 99% of anyone who played basketball DREAMED of getting to that level. Less than 1% of them do. Less than 1% of that 1% go on to have hall of fame worthy careers. Carmelo is one of those people. When he dies, his legacy of being a premier athlete will live forever. You have to take the "slander" for nothing more than what it is...and that is just people shooting the **** for the sake of it. It's what us "sports fans" do. [​IMG]

    ^^^ You are right. Melo gets a grip of slander here. Dont even know why. Where is the slander for Chris Paul. Who's never taken a team to a WC finals.

    Cp3 might be the most slandered player on NT not named Bron.

    The Dwight slander is terrible as well. Dwight, Melo and Cp3 are under apreciated HOF'ers man :smh:

    My prediction is, assuming optimal health (which was your qualification), that all 3 point guards I just said would make the team over the 2 point guards you listed.
