Here is a piece of an article on ESPN.com.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Carmelo Anthony. Here's an actual exchange between me and the Sports Gal (a 'Melo fan) as we were leaving Game 5:Me: "I can't believe how much 'Melo sucked in that series."Her: "He tried hard."Me: "What?"Her: "And he was a good sport."Me: "What is this, a youth soccer league?"Her (after 2-3 seconds): "Well, he seems like a sweet person."</div> Sourse
The denver nuggets failed the Nuggets and in no way, shape of form can you blame carmelo. The clippers all series long were agressively doubling and tripling carmelo, not even MJ could shooting a respectable percentage with 3 people on him continuously.The denver nuggets were just horrible, their shooters could not shoot if their life depended on it. Boykins and Buckner cannot shoot, K-mart airballs about a billion shots a game and then proceeds to get his ass suspended.Absolutely pathetic, i hope carmelo leaves Denver and finds a team who can actually shoot.
Im glad most of the hype on Melo is gone after that series.I feel he was being overrated a lot before.

Overrated that he couldn't make his teamates better who were missing open shots? Just because melo is better than that dinosaur you have as an avatar doesn't mean you have to call him overrated.
He is overrated because he gets called the most clutch player in basketball. If he was really clutch he would have played well when it really mattered and lead his Nuggets over the Clippers.And for that comment, Bosh will be the #2 Power Forward in the League soon. I'd much rather have an elite Big man than in elite swingman because great big guys are pretty hard to find.Well you can keep on calling him a "dinosaur". We'll see how much the raptors will suck in 2 years.
I think he was calling Bosh a dinosaur because his body frame resembles one... atleast to me it does. He actually reminds me of a raptor...
I love Bosh's jump shot, he's going to be a great player to watch grow and turn into a superstar in this league. I love the versatile PF's.

Nrxt, there are just as many elite big men as elite swing men: Duncan, both Wallace's, Shaq, Amare, Brand, etc. Also, who will he be better than, who will he be worse than?
