Carmelo's stats don't back up his contention to be the best scorer in the game, and he is a ball stopper. LeBron is a ball stopper, but his efficiency is great, Carmelo is inefficient.

Dirk
Durant
LeBron
Wade

These are the NBA's best scorers. All of them are extremely efficient scorers and except for LeBron, all of them found a good balance between off the ball and isolation. Carmelo usually black hole the offense. Is he the best scorer in the league? No. He is not even in first tier.

Sorry to burst your bubble but Melo is one of the top 5 scorers in the NBA and he will prove it this year.To but Durant so far ahead of Melo is just being a homer on your part.Not only was Melo a starter in the all star game but he was one of the ten players to finish the game.And they werent picked by some no names posters on real GM but by all-star coaches.That should tell you something right there....Just because Melo had an off-season in Denver last year because of all the rumors going around it doesnt make him any less off a player.He is also considered to be included in one of the best draft classes every and he was one of the reasons why the draft class was considered one of the best,He was aslo robbed from being ROTY from the fans...but the coaches and the players knew who the real ROTY was.So if you want to keep going on about how much better Durant is then Melo is...we will so after this year is over and I bet alot of people will have a different opinion. -

You should post Durant & Melo's career numbers in both the regular season and playoffs including efficiency.

Sorry Melo is right there next to Durant.Durant is just the new flavor of the month.Even in the vid you posted the experts pointed out Melo was the best scorer in the NBA...but I should take the fans of the Thunder and Durants over the experts...are you listening to yourself??

Please, who is the new flavor? Shouldn't it be called the most recent Knicks icon?

Melos been in the NBA for 7 years already give or take...Durant is the new flavor Stern is working on.I dont expect you to agree with my opinion...listen to the vid the experts say it right in it Melos is the best scorer in the NBA.But of course you guys being fans of Durant and the Thunder(which happens to be my 2nd fav team)your going to try and spin it in a way that make Durant the better player.Understandable we do it on the Knick board all the time...Here is to you guys meeting us in the finals....
