    It's a matter of putting the player in the right situation. With the right players around him is effort and attitude should improve. (we all hope! )

    I agree he is an upgrade over Anderson. But you cannot just do a player-to-player comparison. It isn't NBA 2K17. Melo has a poor track record of losing every year and there is a risk that his ego may destroy the team chemistry and make the team worse.

    Having said that I would still trade for Melo. With the way Warriors is dominating the league, you don't really have a choice. Staying put is not an option if you want to compete with them. You have to add star players whenever they are available and see if things will work out themselves. If not, you just have to move on, like what we did with Dwight Howard.

    When you have Harden and CP3, you need guys that can make buckets. Can't think of anyone better available than Melo.

    It's nice to see Pounder is still around even though his thread was closed. (he liked your post)

    I hate all the Melo threads, but not sure why OP is getting heat for posting a view different from the 100x other Melo threads we see. You may not like it, but he makes legitimate points.

    Exactly dude **** Morey, you should apply for the front office so we can get some sense in their finally

    Your apparently smarter than Harden, CP3, Lebron, Dame, the rockets, the cavs, Portland, okc, coach K, the United States of America, and basically any other contender in the NBA, and basically the entire sports world

    Your ass basically described Harden:
    1) Honestly haven't seen harden make that many clutch(game winning/tie shots from outside the paint

    2)Plays know D according to anyone outside Houston and half of Houston

    3) I've seen this dude have a poor attitude from time to time, but I love this strip club before a game b*stard

    4) He might be a team player besides him not eating or riding with the team. Also "no star wants to play with him"

    5) I've seen threads over the years b****ing about hardens leadership so I don't need to explain myself. I've seen him slip in the playoffs almost every year

    Also hardens record setting extension could be "crippling" to the teams cap space

    Basically if you'd rather have Ryno over Melo your just a plain piece of ****.

    We are basically the only team he wants to join so what the **** are you even talking about.

    The more I think about this thread the more dumbfounded I get...... we want him because we are the only ****ing team he wants to join and we could have CARMELO ANTHONY instead of Ryan Anderson

    Honestly kid what the **** are you even talking about... the **** you trying to prove here

    3/5 of his "legitimate points" almost describe harden

    Go be a Portland fan with your "legitimate points" and tell me how fun a 1st round exit and tell me how you had "legitimate points"

    What the **** are you even talking about. We want Melo cause we want that ring b****

    Carmelo Anthony has the worst winning percentage for any player in NBA history with at least 50 playoff games. Anthony's teams have a 16-36(.308) record during his playoff career with the Nuggets and Knicks

    the key word is nba history, keep that in mind
