I don't like the whole "only people who know the game will know" argument a lot but this is definitely one of them with melo. So many top players have said guarding him was a battle on any night. Guaranteed to come out battered and bruised that would last for a few days. He was a top player who never found a team to complement his skill set so his lack of championships means he's overlooked by the casual/superficial fan.
Jt is a championship caliber player. Many options when he has the ball. When melo has the ball, we know there’s no assist coming. Either make or miss. If He’s missing he’ll continue to shoot so he was never a threat as far as winning goes.
Jt fits any team at any time as a player bc he does what u ask of him same with melo but he didn’t really play like team player till he was on team USA n especially at the end of his career

Melo's like the 1on1 iso king.
People forget..Carmelo was considered one of the best pure scorers in nba history…then we got kd
JT is not 6 10
Melo would bully ball him down in the low post he was to strong down there
Melo better offensive player but Jt better at everything thing else
Who's gonna miss Stephen curry
Melo is the best one on five player.. He don't pass the ball
One of my top three players all around ! Carmelo is an animal in his own lane !!!! I miss seeing him play !!!
Prime Melo was crazy good at scoring on all 3-levels. Fast jumper & if you bit on a fake you were done. Would hate to guard him
JT is overated kobe wanna be, he always relies on refs to save his ass, he wont stopping melo. This is not a conversation😂
If only melo had rings or MVPs he would definitely be top 15
Jt is nowhere near Mello with his all round game

I hate draymond on the court when he does all that cheap stuff but i like the way he talks on his podcast. Very well versed
Deadly scorer very scary scorer a scorer that inflicts pain on the defender……..shoulder to your chest …..ass in your stomach….and 1❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Jayson tatum is soft. He never uses his size.
I’ve never heard of any star player saying Tatum is hard to guard however there’s been multiple HOFers say Melo is no game.
Give me Melo. Pure bucket
Carmelo is way better than Tatum… not even close melo had that dog in him

Melo, yeah he was cold😂❤
I tell people he soft and dont believe me, this is confirmation from top hoopers
Tatum isn’t 6”10” damn Draymond quit over exaggerating
LBJ said this about Melo, “He possess every single skill to score the basketball”.
If Melo was in this generation like jt Melo would have a ring
Melo was an offensive machine. He was the complete package on offense.

Melo tough to guard period 🔥🐐
