Don't see how the Lakers are going to be better than Dallas or Utah. They'll be battling with Sacramento and Phoenix for last in the West.
 
the PG-Russ Thunder Era is gonna be fun to watch over the next 5 years

Calling Melo's career a disappointment is ignorant.
Depends on what your expectations of him as a player are/were.

Obviously he's not a disappointment in life.   On the court I'd say it's been pretty disappointing.

It's not about rings either.  It's about his total failure to elevate his game like his peers did, or ever become a leader.

That Melo graphic also shows how garbage his teammates were.

If he had a Cp3/Deandre, Westbrook/Harden/Ibaka, Curry/Klay, hell even Jrue Holiday that record wouldnt be so bad.

The NBA will limit teams to two team timeouts in the final three minutes of a game, league sources tell ESPN.

Faster games :pimp:

On the court? He's a 10x All Star 3x Gold medalist and a 4x all NBA guy for what he's done On the court

As much as you would like to, you can't throw out the 10 All star game appearances that counts

He's easily 1st ballot. Easily.

Basketball HOF is childish. Pro Football HOF is MUCH better. 

Melo wouldn't get in if it was a popularity contest unlike the Football HOF.

lol well yea i just meant for our discussion. like putting all stars aside, just the body of work. all stars just mean if you're likeable or not. Was tmac 1st ballot? i dont remember
 
1% of everyone who aspires to play pro basketball actually make it to the NBA. 1% of that 1% actually go on to have hall of fame worthy careers.

Carmelo belongs to that group. Saying his career was a disappointment literally makes no sense.

Contrived narratives get in the way of common sense for some of ya'll.

Kevin Love & Dwight Howard will make it. The stands are pretty low TBH.

Michael Jordan and Love/Howard wouldn't eat at the same table

This is in comparison to other HOFs that have a logjam at talent getting in.
