A) Two on Two who do you got?

B) At the party who do you got?

C) Who picks up the check at dinner?


A) In their prime I'd take Rider and Big Dog over Mayo and Melo. Rider would score at will on Mayo. Melo may have the slight edge over Big Dog but not enough to balance out Mayo short comings in trying to defend Rider.

B) Well I know three out of the four of these guys chances are really good they'd have weed on them so I'd probably choose not to hang out with Big Dog if I was younger looking to party. Plus Big Dog get's angry.

C) We know Rider isn't picking up the check that guy is flat broke in and out of jail. So I'm going with Mayo he can just pass the check along to his agent.

Dumbest thread ever. First let me start off by saying Mayo is a class act and a very good teammate. To compare him to Rider is just stupid. Secondly a prime Mayo is going to be a lockdown defender in the nba.

Such a great teammate he busted up DJ Hackets jaw.

I didn't know "on the take" was synonomous with Class Act?

So apparantly Denver's shortcomings as a team gives people the right to completely underrate Carmelo once again and compare him to Glenn Robinson?

Pretty much.

I agree that Melo has the edge but "Big Dog" played with both Cassell and Ray Allen and both those guy took a lot of shots. I think Big Dog could have averaged more point if there were more looks to go around.

Anthony only has one other volume shooter on his team AI. So he should average more points.

Big Dog in his prime floated around 22pts, 6rebs and 2.5dimes

Melo had 25.7pts 7.4rebs and 3.4dimes.

Both these guys would be much better players if they knew the word defense.

Last I heard the guy just got arrested for car jacking.

Isaiah Rider is the classic example of a guy with all the talent in the world, but has the wrong attitude with the wrong people around him.

The Dude has been arrested for kidnapping, possesion of coke and evading an officer.
