This thread is too funny. Melo has been my favorite player and is a good fit in NYC but Lebron is a much better player. It isnt really close.

+1....good basketball move GM wise (lebron is more athletic) but after the show he put on in the summer, i would HATE to have such a guy like him on my team

I hate lebron. He is not a good shooter and at this point is too stubborn to develop a post game which would make him the hardest to guard player of all time... That being said get real people. You do the trade. He took that terrible cavs team deep several times. Eventually he will get his stuff together just like Peyton manning finally did to get a ring

The question isnt who is the better player?

We all know Lebron is the most talented player in the League.

Melo and Amare wanted to play for us and Nobody else

u guys are such homers, Lebron is top 2 player in the NBa, Melo isnt even top 5. Stop acting like spurned lovers, take a step back and realize how good Lebron is.

The correct answer is yes and if it's a straight up swap you dance at home when you approve the trade.

Never underestimate the strength of knowledge.

Bring back the physical game and send the softies home.

Well, that's the thing. Melo, like Amar'e, wanted to be in NYC, The Mecca of Basketball. Lebron was scared of NYC. Therein lies the difference.

But, straight up, in a vacuum, Lebron is the better talent.
