The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA announces new media deal / WBD sues the league

Jabari Parker was suppose to be the next Melo

Tatum is a stiffer less athletic Paul George with better intangibles and winning mentality. They both disappear/float too much for me.

Who is going to give us “if Melo played in todays NBA” prediction?

Please be respectful.

People really revere/overrate guys who made their living in the mid-range

How is Tatum a better scorer than Carmelo? Bro just put up one of the worst shooting performances in Finals history. Especially when you count for volume

Has a higher scoring season on less volume with better efficiency?

Overall has better efficiency.

What’s the Melo argument?

Nostalgia the biggest threat to American basketball, not AAU culture

Melo never balled with a finals MVP in his prime

The Celtics won 5 out of 7

Very good. And Tatum was the best player on the majority of those Celtics teams.

 

[headdetective]

I was thinkin Chauncey but was that his prime?

Lauri has power. He can sign an extension on August 6, and be subject to trade rumors this upcoming season. But if he waits until August 7, then he can't be traded during the season.

Dawg, how do you know and keep track of these things?

Unless you’re a player agent, this savant-like awareness of cap rules and deadlines is impressive

People dont like looking at supporting casts for some reason.

Melo never played with players as good as what Tatum has had.

Doesn't even matter who Melo played with. He ain't defending or passing.

That's why he was so great for team USA. Just get buckets.

Ofcourse it matters.

Only because of the three ball. Im talking about real hoops

 

[JMB10215]

If Tatum can get at least 4 to 5 side step threes to drop a game, hes gonna have a poor game. His mid range is ehh, and hes horrible at the rim for someone his size

Melo: Hooper

Tatum: Basketball Player
