A top player in this league and one of the top pure scorers/clutch players is not a major difference maker in your opinion. Any support for that? Just because you post unsupported opinions that couldnt be further from the truth/reality on your own board does not mean that opposing team's fans are challenging you to a contest when they call you out on it. If you're really going to stand behind your opinion, post some facts or make an argument for why he's overrated. It could end up being a decent discussion instead of your contest. Keyword: could, because there is very slim evidence for Melo being overrated/not a major difference maker.
and I dont see anything they posted that's outside the rules. That being said, I dont go to the NYK board too much, so I dont have much to compare this to.
