Shams already let it be known that the 2025-2026 season was going to be Lebron's last season months ago, and i guess people didn't notice or ignored it, even though Shams is represented by the Klutch.

I wouldn't go that far :lol: but Melo is one of the best scoring forwards I've ever seen play and he by far the best collegiate men's hooper and Olympian to ever play (although I think Durant may have overtaken him statistically).

Do yourself a favor my man, go find some footage of Melo at Syracuse in the NCAA tournament. That was complete domination to the point where it was unfair to have him play against other kids his age because he should have been balling against grown men.

Honestly though I don't really recall there being much difference between Denver Melo and Knicks Melo, give or take 15 pounds or so. When Carmelo gained his grown man weight he made guys look really small. I remember Kobe trying to guard Melo and it looked like David vs Goliath.

Like people don't understand how much of a unit Carmelo was. He gets crap because he never won a title and his defense sucked but I'd take prime Melo in my line up any day

This guy is gonna be a Tatum level player at minimum. Just a nice mix of size, athleticism, length. He might be more explosive off the bounce tbh
