Indeed.

Must be true, if it's a rumor you read on Hoopshype.

are you sure it's not the other way around? Lebron and Wade are both ball dominant, playing with Iverson and playing on Team USA has shown Carmelo does not need the ball in his hands to be effective.

Not to mention if LeBron guards Kobe then Melo will have a field day in the post and if LeBron guards Melo then Kobe takes Wade to the post as well easily ...
On Defense LeBron is a tough matchup as well but when Kobe's got his team U.S.A Defense flowing your gonna have a reaaaly tough time scoring ...
D-Wade you can just sag off of since his 3-pt shot isn't so great so that may stop his penetration and if he uses screen and role just a simple switch .. Kobe and Melo make a living off busting it on you from the wing ..
So i take Kobe and Melo

Re: LBJ/Wade v Kobe/Melo
Wade and Bron even if their play style crash they able to fit together on some extent. With both being elite cutter/ Slasher. Also both are great as defense collapser so it help to playmaker for the other
Kobe/Melo - the weakest link here will be melo with how bad he is as a passer / playmaker and both are heavy scorer so it wouldn't fit as good.
Also Bron/ Wade are much better defensive duo
