I know I watch a lot of non-Nuggets games via NBA League Pass, including the Raptors and Celtics (for some odd reason).
you could say that on paper Bosh is better but he isn't getting results like Meloi think this is the season where Bosh has to prove he can get results and lead his team because they're a lot more talented this year
This is bullsh**. Bosh will finally get somewhere this season because he finally has help.If you put Melo on the past Raptor squads, they wouldnt be any better. I would actually expect them to be worse.That is a stupid-ass argument.
^^ there's no argument..this is just how I feel..i wasnt looking for a argumentive replyjust my two cents..
No, it wasnt your two cents because you didnt even try to prove anything. You just copied what Ender had to say.

TJ Ford, Bargnani, Tucker, Graham, Mo Pete, Calderon, Fred Jones, Parker, Garbajosa, Sow, Nesterovic, + more.That help :happy0144:

First, Melo had to lead a team that was plagued by injuries to the playoffs in a much tougher Western Conference. His leadership skills are far and away above Bosh's. He has the ability to hit pressure shots and dominate fourth quarters. Bosh was in the weakest division in basketball and couldn't even bring his team to medocracy. He is a great power forward but NOT better than Carmelo Anthony at this point in his career.

Bargnani will be a decent shooter off the bench, who knows what he will do. Tucker is a nice hustle guy but he's an unknown, Graham was a dissapointment last year, Mo Pete is Mo Pete, Calderon is a decent backup you had last year, Fred Jones is a nice little player but nothing great, Anthony Parker didn't do anything in the league when he was here, he's an unknown for now, Garbageosa...whatever...Sow doesn't know what he's doing yet and Nesterovic is a decent filler at center...+ more...not really.
Carmelo is better IMO. He has consistently been a very good player in this league since his rookie season unlike Bosh who really just had a breakout year this season. Melo does have a better supporting cast then Bosh but his isn't that much better yet Melo has lead his team into the playoffs every season in the much harder WC unlike Bosh who's team has been at the bottom of the weak EC every season he has played. CB4 don't even try using Toronto having a crappy coach as a reason because quite frankly Denvers coach is no better. So Melo is obviously the better leader. He also has multiple game winning shots and is one of the clutchest players in the league. I'll break it down this wayScoring- Melo>BoshShooting- Melo>BoshPassing- Melo=BoshRebounding- Bosh>MeloShot blocking- Bosh>MeloLeadership- Melo>BoshClutch- Melo>Bosh
Its very close. But I'll go with Melo. They are both the same age, and both have sky high potential in the long tun. Melo has lead his team to numerous playoff appearences in his short career, although Bosh doesn't have the surroundings to possibly lead his team to the playoffs, I've never seen him do much in clutch situations; part of that being I watch the Raps 8 times a year. Like CB4 says every damn day "The Raps have one of the best offenses in the league"..Well that just shows you how far offense gets you?..Maybe if Bosh played defense, it would boost the players around him; and he would be a huge difference maker on the floor. I'm kinda 50/50 on these KG to Bosh comaprisons; KG plays arguably some of the best low post defense in the league. Bosh doesn't play defense anywhere near to KG. Melo has been said to have a bad work ethic and such; but the USA team really benefitted him. All you've heard is praise from the coaches and teamates on that team, that Melo has one of the best work ethics out there, and that he is willing to get better and be a team player. It has really showed on the court last game; and apparently today he did it again with 18 points. On the other hand I havent heard much on Bosh and how he has been improving and coming together as a team player..Basically this comes down to work ethic, and who can be clutch, and take over games..
