@@curiouslymavismade ? The 2011 mavs had no wings who could play defense and if they did have one it was only an average defender but the team as a unit played good defense cause they had multiple people who knew Dirk was their superstar and he couldn’t play defense so they would had to acquire a big man like Tyson chandler to limit drives by Lebron because of his presence but they had no good defenders other than maybe deshawn Stevenson and Tyson chandler
@You hate Facts You hate facts but ain't no facts coming from you. Name me one defender who held Carmelo to 15pts below back in his prime. How inefficient is averaging a consistent 25+ points a game, and was always a plus for the team, not until Jlin stole the show though. Oh and I almost forgot the only 3 time Olympic Gold Medalist, was key in every USA team he played with, because of his EFFICIENCY scoring from deep. Mind you the guy was only a spot up shooter during International games.
@You hate Facts Huh? I guess someone needs a brain cell. I see why you couldn't comprehend, the truth hurts bud. Your hard to swallow pill is that you think you're better than everyone in this clip, but you ain't, not even senseless enough to drop a meaningful comment. Oh and wait..... too emotional to drop a logical counterargument to a valid argument. I mean, can you get any dumber?
Honestly a lot of players past and present didnt and dont play defense but nobody says anything except for harden. People pick and choose who to criticize. Once the media and other people started to say it then the mob mentality happened. People that never watched him play would say it. There are a lot of players who dont play defense steve nash, mcgrady, luka, lillard, curry ,booker ,young and beal. First 2 are HOFers
underrated player
Melo is one of the top 10 players of all time and we would be talkin more if he would of went 2 in 03
He was a beast on the nuggets and the knicks top 3 scorer in the league
NO DEFENSE THOUGH!!!!!!!
@You hate FactsTotally agree. And that saddens me because I was so happy when Denver got him.
@@curiouslymavismade It’s not an issue as long as your team can make up for it
@@joaquingorman6750 THERE IS NO TEAM IN THE HISTORY OF THE NBA THAT HAS MADE UP FOR A LACK OF DEFENSE FROM A WING PLAYER!!!!! PERIOD!!!

Carmelo Anthony was so good until is career went downhill.

@You hate Facts Typical imbecile casual that only knew the game because of the media. Try doing Math and understand analytics.
@You hate Facts so I guess everyone in this video doesn't know what they are talking about huh?
