He’s not mobile enough (on offense or defense). Players don’t fear his hesitation moves anymore and he gets no lift on his jump shots and layups. All of these detriments can be overlooked if he had a high iq and was a good passer but he isn’t that either.

9Master_Mind3 - Wade was washed physically since 2014. His IQ, passing, and willingness to come off the bench extended his career. Nothing to do with peds
It's really the loss of his rapid first step that makes his iso-game terrible. No point in hesitation moves if you can't get by anyone. No point getting by anyone if your shot gets rejected due to lack of explosion/lift. What ends up happening is Melo just chucks a contested shot that almost never goes in anymore lol
How can u be washed physically but have good conditioning? Both require physicality. Idk i think DWade shoulda retired 2 years ago. As for melo? He didnt do anything for my Knicks. He was just a selfish waste of money. The NBA can black ball him for all I care and I hope they do. He is no HOF to me. Not even top 100 players of all time.

@Shabaka Smkss They we're trying to be cheap. The new owner doesn't want to pay the luxury tax. I guess no one told him to have a Finals level team in the NBA you have to go into the tax. Also they paid Chris Paul way to much for his age and injury history.
@@carboy101 The owner and GM both went out of their way during the preseason to say that they were ready to go into the luxury for the right piece(why they pushed so hard for Butler during his whole debacle).

Also to be fair, Melo played significantly better than the last guy we had at his position(Ryan Anderson).

Dr0pkidd how you gonna say the Rockets are cheap, but then go on to say they paid Chris Paul too much lmaoo bro contradicting himself in the same sentence
bojo perez that is definitely true. But it’s also a fact that Harden is in his prime and Melo is not. Harden can outweigh his bad defense with his efficient offense and Melo can’t even if he tried. Rockets bad start is not all because of Melo and the media made him sound like the scapegoat yet he is not completely innocent either.
metalsadman javale is athletic though. It’s hard to play in the NBA when you’re not athletic anymore and you take the kinds of shots that melo does. GS can’t save melo.
Jad3z New York, OKC, and Houston all tried to get melo to start taking better shots. Maybe GS succeeds where they could not but I’m very skeptical that melo is capable of playing like a real spot up shooter/role player. Plus as the video points out Melos defense has been so bad lately that even when he’s shooting lights out he’s still barely a positive on the floor. Let’s be real though. None of this matters because GS absolutely does not want melo and I can’t blame them for that.
Why stunned? It was obvious for years once he was past his best and he couldn't score all the time it would end like this. After his scoring powers faded even slightly it wasn't worth his defense and other things.
Noble Sports Ent. Correct. Cp3, Harden, LBJ... they don’t play D either. So It’s Melo’s fault the Rockets overpaid Cp3, Capella, and got rid of Ariza and Luc Mbah a Moute??? Even if they do get rid of him they still aren’t winning anything
Noble Sports Ent. Hes consistently inconsistent offensively and has been for quite some time now. He'll have a decent game every 2/10 times that doesn't makeup for the other 8 , his ball iq doesn't help either in this gens pace and space league where he'd much rather Iso. Many thought he'd thrive in a 6th man role but no one will admit that he himself doesn't want to do it so how the bloody hell is he going to do it by force ?? Players like dwade, korver, Lou, v carter , etc. All can thrive still because of ball IQ and willing to change their game to help the team we can't say the same about melo as he's never seen making any improvements to his game because lack of want . I'm not hating on him man just stating how it is even Kobe and Jordan changed their games for the better can't say the same about melo
You've just seen the numbers broken down in this video, personally I wouldn't say he's washed up, but definitely he needs to realize he's not the same player anymore and has to adapt to a different role if he wants to continue to be in the league.
Carlos Tejeda his ego seems to be the biggest issue everything's more a mental then physical when it comes to any form of competition . I see what your saying man though I don't see him seeing that in himself until all the good teams blackball him out forcing him to go to a team he doesn't want
he should've seen his damn own videotapes by now how he being so badly... he choose Rockets because of last season... he know he gotta play defense smh
he dk how to be better player just more than shoot... maybe most points are his only accomplishment. If I was him I would've done post moves, set screen, shoot 3, mid-range etc by taking smart shots etc then most teams would want me more... so he's one of most wasted talents he've done.
The mid range is THE difference maker for KD and Kawhi and DeRozan and that will never change for anyone with the ability to convert the shot from the elbow or the baseline or the foul line. It will always be part of the NBA, watch and learn.
They traded away their best wing defenders Ariza and Mbah Moute. Then they added Melo, the worst analytics player on an analytics team starving for wing defense. RIP Houston front office.
That the thing tho, when he plays for team USA he actually becomes a role player. Thats why he is able to make so many 3 pointers. But for some fucking reason he can't do the same in the NBA.
MOST OVERRATED PLAYER in the NBA He deserves what he's goin through rightnow because of what he had done with linsanity back in there NY days old saying goes what goes around comes around "KARMA"
Cuz was such a legend right? Lin was better than Melo right? Lin led us 2 more wins the Melo right? Lin played in the playoffs right? Wrong! Who tf cares about Lin lol we got better after he left😂😂
Nice transition coach! Much less disruptive than the three separate ads for one company. This "old" style is really much better. Anyways great video yet again, top 1 basketball channel!
@@duaneharper6095 He isn't agile enough to do that though, at least at his current age. When he is young, he doesnt give much fuck to defense either. Now it's too late to try hard.
Right! I've been sayin this since day 1 when he took the nuggets from a 17 win team to a 40+ win team as a rookie was weak and overrated.. even though he led them to the 8th seed in the playoffs as rookie, SO WHAT! he still lost in the 1st rd to a wack Sam Cassell, Kevin Garnett and Sprewell led T'Wolves who went on to be Western Conference finalist smh.. this scrub only won "1 game" in that series as a rookie smh he WEAK for that! Same thing in his 2nd year in the 05 playoffs, when he led the Nuggets to the playoffs again this time as a 7th seed really Melo? that's it?? Not to mention he only managed to win yet again"1 game" and lose in the 1st rd "AGAIN" this time against that "WEAK" Spurs team Coached by one of the worst coaches ever(Pop), led by Overrated Tim Duncan, Manu and Tony Parker, that went on to beat the WACK Pistons in the finals SMH So what win Melo! I don't care if he was the only scorer on the team!! Who cares if he was the best player on his team at 20yrs old! Win MELO!! 07 playoffs ONCE AGAIN, this scrub, just like before led the Nuggets to the playoffs again this time as a 6th seed really Melo? that's it?? only managed to win yet again"1 game" and lose in the 1st rd "AGAIN" vs that "WEAK" Spurs team Coached by one of the worst coaches ever(Pop), led by Overrated Tim Duncan, Manu and Tony Parker, that went on to sweep Lebron in the finals SMH So what win the series Melo! I don't care if he was the only scorer on the team!! Who cares if LeBron got swept and "you didnt" vs the Spurs!! Win MELO!! ONCE AGAIN It never fails with MELO, 08 playoffs this scrub, just like before led the Nuggets to the playoffs again!! this time as a 8th seed really Melo? that's it?? The Western Conference has always been weaker than the EAST!! Win CARMELO!!! Get out of the 1st round against these overrated so called great players and teams!!!!! He lost in the 1st rd "AGAIN" vs that "WEAK" Lakers team Coached by one of the worst coaches ever(Phil Jackson), led by overrated Pau Gasol, Black Mamba, and Lamar Odom that eventually went to the finals SMH I dont care!! win the series Melo! I don't care if he was the only scorer on the team!! Who cares if it was the so called "tough Western Conference Win MELO!! It never fails with MELO, 09 playoffs this scrub, just like before led the Nuggets to the playoffs again!! this time as a 2nd seed really Melo? that's it?? The Western Conference has always been weaker than the EAST!! Win CARMELO!!! Get out of the 1st round against these overrated so called great players and teams!!!!! Okay u did get out of the 1st round finally n that weak "WESTERN CONFERENCE".. U still aint beat nobody but Chris Paul, have you seen or heard of that guy since then???? I think not!! He makes it out of 2nd round but so what??? It's the "WEAK WESTERN CONFERENCE"... He only beat Jason Terry, Jason Kidd, And Dirk Nowitzki and we all know how that team turned out!! They never went on to win anything right??? Besides out playing Dirk was no big deal, not like he was ever an MVP or Anything!!! He makes it to the Western Conference finals only to lose "once again" to the Lakers team Coached by one of the worst coaches ever(Phil Jackson), led by overrated Pau Gasol, Black Mamba, and Lamar Odom that eventually went to the finals SMH Yea the Lakers would win it all I don't care!! Win the series Melo! I don't care if he was the only scorer on the team!! Who cares if it was the so called "tough Western Conference Win MELO!! I don't care if Kobe was in his PRIME!! WIN!!
@@rich7674 you forgot the sarcasm font. However, as a rookie, he had a nice team. Go check the roster. Not the best, but not too terrible. Fact is, he's a selfish player. He left Denver for the spotlight of NY. Not to win, because the Knicks gutted the team to get him. He wanted the NY limelight. And when he got there, all he ever talked about was being a rich entrepreneur. In the court, he only cared about was touched on offense. If you ever thought he gave a shit about defense...rewatch this video. Only thing he wanted was to get paid, get points, and stay famous. For him and his wife. If he really wanted to win, he would have stayed with the Nuggets. That team could have done well, and continued to improve. But again, he wasn't interested in winning and competing. He had that Syracuse year, but Boeheim always had talent and wins, so he hardly can take sole credit for that year.
@@trooperjoe73 Right! TMac made it outta the first round and was an elite defender too!! So much to the point people feared him defensively!!! Melo and George Karl's relationship was like Jordan and Phil!!! He is so proud of Melo and Kenyon he says their father's absence(true or not) are why they are, the way they are! Melo was so selfish to leave Denver because of him! Melo went to college in NY but he wasn't even born in NY... so it's not like goin home would have anything to do with him wanting to play in NY.. I mean, after all, the Knicks made it to & won many playoff series prior to his arrival.. I'm with you, I don't know what he was thinking going to NY, pretending he was born there(Phony), only for money and fame and not wanting to accomplish what hasn't been done since the early 70's...Because TRULY having a love for his birth city is out of the question when it comes to a relatively "LOUD" and "boisterous" guy like MELO.. I mean only LeBron has that kind of pride for a home city... He is so overrated that he finished 2nd in MVP voting playing some of his worst basketball with a "YOUNG" J. Kidd, K Mart, Kurt Thomas, Marcus Camby(Wait, that's starting to sound like the '99 Knicks finals squad)..Oh snap, let me stop, I'm getting sidetracked..Sort of like you did by glossing over my mentioning of his "WEAK Western Conference tenure and the success he had "EVEN" with little help while in the "Wack Western Conference" as if it doesn't deserve empathy.. Oops! I did it again... insert Britney Spears to sing her chorus for me plz and just forgive me for getting sidetracked again.. It's funny to me when KG, on area 21 said Melo never had the right squad around him in his career he was lying and got paid just to utter those words! Players like Marbury and Stephen Jackson are bitter only, that's why they're defending Melo.. It has zero truth to it! Stephen Jackson never been part of a championship caliber team! He never even won a ring anyway! And Marbury was a scrub like Melo! Marbury is hating too when he said today that all Melo needed in his career was the right team put around him and let him be himself he would win it all.... but who is he but a bum in China right??? And who is this "never-has-been" name Dwyane Wade who had the audacity to say he is being scapegoated?? I mean the nerve of that bum right?! Chauncey Billups is a scrub who never won anything and he said Melo would be talked about instead of Lebron if Detroit did his job and drafted him instead of Dark... but we all know he lied through his teeth! Dont count cuz he was a former teammate any way... Same as Dontae Jones stepping up as a former team mate..BIAS only!! He never won anything to speak on it! Porzingis not going to the teams exit meeting after Melo being treated horribly by the Knicks and Phil is all made up... Melo being voted teammate of the year in 2017 is fables The media is always right!!! they never made up narrative in history ever before!!! I'm tired of this scrub Melo never getting criticized by former players or current players.. and it is all because they're all scared of him!! He been the Mike Tyson of the league on the low since 03...But bump that they need to step up to this scrub and tell him that the critics who never played professionally were right, and the professionals are all wrong about him being underappreciated and having no help
tbh russ has his cons and pros.he is good and bad at the same time,pretty much the only bad thing is his selfishness to get those rebounds and that terrible shooting efficiency if he fix that,he would actually have a chance at the finals.
Knicks made the playoffs for the first time in 10 years and had 3 straight playoff appearances where Melo finished 3rd in MVP voting and grabbed the scoring title.
First time on this UA-cam Channel ... An intelligent/objective/concise (and entertaining) breakdown of Carmelo Anthony at this stage of his career that other "fanboy" networks (that stick to talking points) don't offer. You convinced me to subscribe, and I'm looking forward to more videos. Thanks
Hopefully his career dont end this early.....melo is one of my favorite players of all time, one the few physical players left in the nba, one of the smoothest jumpshots ever.
Alot of People fail to realize this , melo isn't a catch and shoot type of guy , that's not his game, last season he shot only 694 2 point feild goals , in 2015 he shot 627 , but here's the thing he missed 42 games that season . So there's the problem, he's playing a role that isn't him , well trying to play a role, his Efg is up to par with his prime years , mid-range % is great . And he's the 5th best scorer in Houston. People like to bring up defense but we all know In this leauge that's becoming a waste of time due to teams ability to score now . If teams let melo be melo ha wouldn't be going through this . He avg 17 ppg on 47% shooting the 6 games before the okc one .
@bojo perez I believe that. That's why I don't understand why they are cutting him . This is starting to look like the Iverson situation. Media damaging his name , fans that hate researching going along with it , teams not picking him up , he's being forced out the NBA
@bojo perez and Houston is like 25-30th in almost every team statistic. They are playing terrible as a whole but yet , melo is the only one getting blamed for it 😔 doing him dirty.
i think why he was cut off is because of the relation between him and mike dantoni and jeff bzdelik. they were all ex coaches and had some trouble with him. why eric gordon isnt cut off? this season he is very awful. thats why i think there has to be something more than melo's bad performance
He might still earn a spot if he works on other skills not just turning ur body around, fake left/right, dribble once then shoot. Probably work on his defense a little and getting a little bit of athleticism to keep up with the offense. He can still do these at his current age. Sad that he gets all the blame and hate for only playing terribly for 2 seasons and people forgetting his prime/earlier seasons just like that
Dare I say it but Igoudala Finals MVP > Melo putting up big numbers on mediocre to terrible efficiency while playing on terrible teams for half of his career.
dude just chill with the efficiency shit, Look at allen iverson, his efficiency is GARBAGE, shooting sub 40% FG. low 30% to high 20% 3 points on MASSIVE SHOT ATTEMPTS. yet, people still consider allen Iverson one of the greatest of all time. Truth is, Melo is much more efficient than A.I.
@Random Guy2000 Don't put harden in there man, Harden had a true shooting percentage of 61.9% in 2017-2018 season and Lebron and Kd both had about 1-2% more. Harden is very efficient already. do you think Kyrie irving was efficient? kyrie had 61% which is below harden and Klay Thompson had 59% true shooting while being called top 5 best shooter of all time. By the way Giannis Antetokoumpo had 59.8 and he is super efficient. And yes WestBrook is horrible sitting at 52.4%
I think it’s an overstatement to say midrange is dead when Kawhi, Derozan, KD and Kyrie live there. Plus before Livingston got old everyone agreed he was a great backup for Curry and he religiously shoots turn around fades. It’s not what it used to be but it certainly isn’t as dead and archaic as ppl would have u believe.
How can Melo be a role player when his defense is so bad? If you just want someone to move the ball and shoot open threes, there are better shooters who also play better defense than Melo.
Literally zero defence, even with a coach that wants to play him 15 mins and using him only in post ups and pick and pops he is such a defensive liability he will still hurt the team. He’s done. He has to retire. Being such a liability on defence is also why I am concerned that LeBron will not play till 39/40 like people think he will. I think after this 4 year lakers contract LeBron will retire because his defence will be so embarrassing it will stain his legacy...he’s kind of close to being that bad defensively already...
Doubt it, like @Prolific said LBJ saves his defense for the playoffs and key moments, plus Bron's game is multidimensional to compare it with Melo's. Bron's bball IQ is too high to not make further adjustments to his game as his career comes to a close, something Melo has refused to do and what's gotten him into the mess he's in right now
Maybe he should just go to gsw and get him ring and retire just like Vince Carter should join them they both good players plus it seems like warriors always bring the best out of most players and by the way I am bulls fan but he deserve a ring
Melo Should Go Cheap To The NY Knicks. Melo Should Join The KP, Ntilikina, Kevin Knox, Enes Kanter, and David Fizdale's New Team Strategy. #7 Deserves That Much. NYK Management Should Take A Risk, A Cheap Risk. #7 and KP Were A Good Combo. It Is Time For A Repeat.
mikedemo Yes Perhaps Being Paid As Much As He Was, But Cheap Í Bet The Bridge Can Be Rebuild. The Only Problem Would Be Melo Because I Doubt That He Will Accept Anything Cheap. IF Melo Did Accept A Cheap Signing To The NY Knicks We Would Definitely Be In Contention For The Eastern Conference Championship. Dreaming Is Not Always A Bad Thing. Hey! Anything Could Happen. We Never Know The Spins That The World Takes. Lol. We Must Dream And Perhaps Believe. Melo And KP Again Could Really Happen One More Time. IF There Is A Will There Is A Way. Believing Is All It Takes. Perhaps Even Without Melo The NY Knicks Can Surprise The World And Like 1999 Reach The NBA Finals. Basically The Same Circumstances Are Happening More Or Less. CHAMPIONSHIP Believes Do The Rest Of NY?
Everybody who talking down on Melo please drop your stats( high school. College. NBA) and lets see real bum and not the trolls💯💯💯 let’s see how many replies this get🤔
@Eloheem DaGod : I think it's because the real bums are the ones who act triggered over today's version of Carmelo Anthony, and want him to be something he's not. Melo ain't meant to be a 3PT shooter, he's meant to be an ISO baller.
@@eloheemdagod5432 Exactly. Carmelo Anthony had 13.4 points and 5.4 rebounds to go with 2.1 threes, not bad for a newly converted reserve who was a starter virtually his entire NBA career since 2003, starting only 2 out of 10 games for Houston and clocking at 29 minutes per game. That might not be up to the standards of Prime Melo, but still better than what Ryan Anderson provided in his last season with Houston and what he's providing for Phoenix now.
Filipo Sooa his numbers are good ,it’s just the nba is now played by analysts ,iso ball is dead to a point where they don’t run plays for it, the league turned into Golden State Warriors offensive, a team like the spurs will fit Melo good they still play all around basketball, it’s up to melo now to put himself where his skill will needed instead of trying to change his game💯💯
The problem with Melo's hops (IMO) is that he seems to not know how to gather with 2 feet, it almost seems like he loses momentum. Even when younger you can see that has an awkward 2 step gather. Other than that i think he still useful for post ups, and pick and pops
Ya'll remember game 5 of Thunder-Jazz Game 5 last year? when they sat Melo they made a 25 point comeback.. all of last year OKC tried to include him down the stretch and it just didn't work. Sad to see him regress so rapidly. He should sign with a contender as a third string player

Players like dwade, korver, Lou, v carter , etc. All can thrive still because of ball IQ and willing to change their game to help the team we can't say the same about melo as he's never seen making any improvements to his game because lack of want . I'm not hating on him man just stating how it is even Kobe and Jordan changed their games for the better can't say the same about melo
You've just seen the numbers broken down in this video, personally I wouldn't say he's washed up, but definitely he needs to realize he's not the same player anymore and has to adapt to a different role if he wants to continue to be in the league.
KENTDOOR1000 Aka keshawn carter williamson how to you think Westbrook is gonna look in a few seasons?
Carlos Tejeda his ego seems to be the biggest issue everything's more a mental then physical when it comes to any form of competition . I see what your saying man though I don't see him seeing that in himself until all the good teams blackball him out forcing him to go to a team he doesn't want
Carmelo realised that Karma is real when Jeremy Lin got his ring 🥺 lol
In all fairness, Steph, KD and Klay all use the mid range. It's a great move if you're good at it
They are efficient at mid range.
John50 Beach Steph doesn’t really he’s either st the rim or three ball
Kirbystare1992 no he shoots at midrange as well but not consistently.
Solentos wish Houston would do that for melo instead of forcing him to spot up
Yeah when you can hit midrange shots around 50% of the time or above its an efficient shot. Just not when you're shooting 40% like Melo is.
I don’t feel bad for Melo. He’s always been so arrogant.
he should've seen his damn own videotapes by now how he being so badly... he choose Rockets because of last season... he know he gotta play defense smh
Never learned to play defense within a system and as an offensive player, really only wanted to shoot ball.
he dk how to be better player just more than shoot... maybe most points are his only accomplishment. If I was him I would've done post moves, set screen, shoot 3, mid-range etc by taking smart shots etc then most teams would want me more... so he's one of most wasted talents he've done.
The mid range is THE difference maker for KD and Kawhi and DeRozan and that will never change for anyone with the ability to convert the shot from the elbow or the baseline or the foul line. It will always be part of the NBA, watch and learn.
I hope so! My latest at The Athletic will be about this!!
I doubt it with analytics

Can we talk about that transition from the ad back to the video? That was SMOOOOOOTH
No, Sixers can still make use of him. They need a pf that can space the floor.

Carmelo Anthony needs an Olympic revamp for his career.
He's should be like 04 Olympic and stay on the bench
That the thing tho, when he plays for team USA he actually becomes a role player. Thats why he is able to make so many 3 pointers. But for some fucking reason he can't do the same in the NBA.
" my skills are diminished but I'm still gonna isolate anyways" possession 😂😂😂😂😭😭
Laker fans be hoping warriors pick Melo up
He'd only be playing 10mpg (and not in key moments) on that team.
Lol Lol Yeah for what to wreck your team more!
"Lakers fans hoping to make the playoffs" is more like it.
They'd still sweep the lakers, assuming the lakers make it to the playoffs.
Im actually a lakers fan and id be cool if we acquire him
I respect the sneaky insertions of ads, always come out of nowhere, in the flow of the offense. It always makes me laugh.
MOST OVERRATED PLAYER in the NBA He deserves what he's goin through rightnow because of what he had done with linsanity back in there NY days old saying goes what goes around comes around "KARMA"

This argument is tired. What has LIN done since?
Got ring before Melo did. That’s when you know Melo is overrated
Nice transition coach! Much less disruptive than the three separate ads for one company. This "old" style is really much better.
Anyways great video yet again, top 1 basketball channel!
I don’t think Carmelo should retire like this 🙏
I think the only place for him is Philly.
Ya he should retire more washed and trash. He needs to keep playing for 2 more years. Love watching cancer at work
All he has to do is focus on staying in front of his man on defense rather than trying to switch or catch-up to make a block
@@duaneharper6095 He isn't agile enough to do that though, at least at his current age. When he is young, he doesnt give much fuck to defense either. Now it's too late to try hard.

This is why I love how Vince evolved, adapting to situations is key!
He's been overrated since day 1. He's never produced, except for himself. Which coincidentally, is his main priority.
Right! I've been sayin this since day 1 when he took the nuggets from a 17 win team to a 40+ win team as a rookie was weak and overrated.. even though he led them to the 8th seed in the playoffs as rookie, SO WHAT!
he still lost in the 1st rd to a wack Sam Cassell, Kevin Garnett and Sprewell led T'Wolves who went on to be Western Conference finalist smh.. this scrub only won "1 game" in that series as a rookie smh he WEAK for that!
Same thing in his 2nd year in the 05 playoffs, when he led the Nuggets to the playoffs again this time as a 7th seed really Melo? that's it?? Not to mention he only managed to win yet again"1 game" and lose in the 1st rd "AGAIN" this time against that "WEAK" Spurs team Coached by one of the worst coaches ever(Pop), led by Overrated Tim Duncan, Manu and Tony Parker, that went on to beat the WACK Pistons in the finals SMH So what win Melo! I don't care if he was the only scorer on the team!! Who cares if he was the best player on his team at 20yrs old! Win MELO!!
07 playoffs ONCE AGAIN, this scrub, just like before led the Nuggets to the playoffs again this time as a 6th seed really Melo? that's it?? only managed to win yet again"1 game" and lose in the 1st rd "AGAIN" vs that "WEAK" Spurs team Coached by one of the worst coaches ever(Pop), led by Overrated Tim Duncan, Manu and Tony Parker, that went on to sweep Lebron in the finals SMH So what win the series Melo! I don't care if he was the only scorer on the team!! Who cares if LeBron got swept and "you didnt" vs the Spurs!! Win MELO!!
ONCE AGAIN It never fails with MELO, 08 playoffs this scrub, just like before led the Nuggets to the playoffs again!! this time as a 8th seed really Melo? that's it?? The Western Conference has always been weaker than the EAST!! Win CARMELO!!! Get out of the 1st round against these overrated so called great players and teams!!!!! He lost in the 1st rd "AGAIN" vs that "WEAK" Lakers team Coached by one of the worst coaches ever(Phil Jackson), led by overrated Pau Gasol, Black Mamba, and Lamar Odom that eventually went to the finals SMH I dont care!! win the series Melo! I don't care if he was the only scorer on the team!! Who cares if it was the so called "tough Western Conference Win MELO!!
It never fails with MELO, 09 playoffs this scrub, just like before led the Nuggets to the playoffs again!! this time as a 2nd seed really Melo? that's it?? The Western Conference has always been weaker than the EAST!! Win CARMELO!!! Get out of the 1st round against these overrated so called great players and teams!!!!! Okay u did get out of the 1st round finally n that weak "WESTERN CONFERENCE".. U still aint beat nobody but Chris Paul, have you seen or heard of that guy since then???? I think not!!
He makes it out of 2nd round but so what??? It's the "WEAK WESTERN CONFERENCE"... He
only beat Jason Terry, Jason Kidd, And Dirk Nowitzki and we all know how that team turned out!! They never went on to win anything right??? Besides out playing Dirk was no big deal, not like he was ever an MVP or Anything!!!
He makes it to the Western Conference finals only to lose "once again" to the Lakers team Coached by one of the worst coaches ever(Phil Jackson), led by overrated Pau Gasol, Black Mamba, and Lamar Odom that eventually went to the finals SMH Yea the Lakers would win it all I don't care!! Win the series Melo! I don't care if he was the only scorer on the team!! Who cares if it was the so called "tough Western Conference Win MELO!! I don't care if Kobe was in his PRIME!! WIN!!
@@rich7674 you forgot the sarcasm font. However, as a rookie, he had a nice team. Go check the roster. Not the best, but not too terrible.
Fact is, he's a selfish player. He left Denver for the spotlight of NY. Not to win, because the Knicks gutted the team to get him. He wanted the NY limelight. And when he got there, all he ever talked about was being a rich entrepreneur.
In the court, he only cared about was touched on offense. If you ever thought he gave a shit about defense...rewatch this video.
Only thing he wanted was to get paid, get points, and stay famous. For him and his wife.
If he really wanted to win, he would have stayed with the Nuggets. That team could have done well, and continued to improve. But again, he wasn't interested in winning and competing. He had that Syracuse year, but Boeheim always had talent and wins, so he hardly can take sole credit for that year.
@@trooperjoe73 Right! TMac made it outta the first round and was an elite defender too!! So much to the point people feared him defensively!!!
Melo and George Karl's relationship was like Jordan and Phil!!! He is so proud of Melo and Kenyon he says their father's absence(true or not) are why they are, the way they are! Melo was so selfish to leave Denver because of him!
Melo went to college in NY but he wasn't even born in NY... so it's not like goin home would have anything to do with him wanting to play in NY.. I mean, after all, the Knicks made it to & won many playoff series prior to his arrival.. I'm with you, I don't know what he was thinking going to NY, pretending he was born there(Phony), only for money and fame and not wanting to accomplish what hasn't been done since the early 70's...Because TRULY having a love for his birth city is out of the question when it comes to a relatively "LOUD" and "boisterous" guy like MELO.. I mean only LeBron has that kind of pride for a home city...
He is so overrated that he finished 2nd in MVP voting playing some of his worst basketball with a "YOUNG" J. Kidd, K Mart, Kurt Thomas, Marcus Camby(Wait, that's starting to sound like the '99 Knicks finals squad)..Oh snap, let me stop, I'm getting sidetracked..Sort of like you did by glossing over my mentioning of his "WEAK Western Conference tenure and the success he had "EVEN" with little help while in the "Wack Western Conference" as if it doesn't deserve empathy.. Oops! I did it again... insert Britney Spears to sing her chorus for me plz and just forgive me for getting sidetracked again..
It's funny to me when KG, on area 21 said Melo never had the right squad around him in his career he was lying and got paid just to utter those words! Players like Marbury and Stephen Jackson are bitter only, that's why they're defending Melo.. It has zero truth to it!
Stephen Jackson never been part of a championship caliber team! He never even won a ring anyway! And Marbury was a scrub like Melo! Marbury is hating too when he said today that all Melo needed in his career was the right team put around him and let him be himself he would win it all.... but who is he but a bum in China right???
And who is this "never-has-been" name Dwyane Wade who had the audacity to say he is being scapegoated?? I mean the nerve of that bum right?! Chauncey Billups is a scrub who never won anything and he said Melo would be talked about instead of Lebron if Detroit did his job and drafted him instead of Dark... but we all know he lied through his teeth! Dont count cuz he was a former teammate any way... Same as Dontae Jones stepping up as a former team mate..BIAS only!! He never won anything to speak on it!
Porzingis not going to the teams exit meeting after Melo being treated horribly by the Knicks and Phil is all made up... Melo being voted teammate of the year in 2017 is fables
The media is always right!!! they never made up narrative in history ever before!!! I'm tired of this scrub Melo never getting criticized by former players or current players.. and it is all because they're all scared of him!! He been the Mike Tyson of the league on the low since 03...But bump that they need to step up to this scrub and tell him that the critics who never played professionally were right, and the professionals are all wrong about him being underappreciated and having no help

@Shabaka Smkss Melo should be like D Rose and aim for 6th man of the year
It's not the first time the music has made a bballbreakdown video special, but this is top 5.
Alot of People fail to realize this , melo isn't a catch and shoot type of guy , that's not his game, last season he shot only 694 2 point feild goals , in 2015 he shot 627 , but here's the thing he missed 42 games that season . So there's the problem, he's playing a role that isn't him , well trying to play a role, his Efg is up to par with his prime years , mid-range % is great . And he's the 5th best scorer in Houston. People like to bring up defense but we all know In this leauge that's becoming a waste of time due to teams ability to score now . If teams let melo be melo ha wouldn't be going through this . He avg 17 ppg on 47% shooting the 6 games before the okc one .
@bojo perez I believe that. That's why I don't understand why they are cutting him . This is starting to look like the Iverson situation. Media damaging his name , fans that hate researching going along with it , teams not picking him up , he's being forced out the NBA
@bojo perez and Houston is like 25-30th in almost every team statistic. They are playing terrible as a whole but yet , melo is the only one getting blamed for it 😔 doing him dirty.
i think why he was cut off is because of the relation between him and mike dantoni and jeff bzdelik. they were all ex coaches and had some trouble with him. why eric gordon isnt cut off? this season he is very awful. thats why i think there has to be something more than melo's bad performance
He might still earn a spot if he works on other skills not just turning ur body around, fake left/right, dribble once then shoot. Probably work on his defense a little and getting a little bit of athleticism to keep up with the offense. He can still do these at his current age. Sad that he gets all the blame and hate for only playing terribly for 2 seasons and people forgetting his prime/earlier seasons just like that
He can't be that type of player anymore.
LOL, hilarious song choice. I was starting the video and I was like....woah..."dont leave me this way?" LOL
still a spot for Melo.. gotta find the right fit

Solentos ,ok👍
Dare I say it but Igoudala Finals MVP > Melo putting up big numbers on mediocre to terrible efficiency while playing on terrible teams for half of his career.
dude just chill with the efficiency shit,
Look at allen iverson, his efficiency is GARBAGE, shooting sub 40% FG. low 30% to high 20% 3 points on MASSIVE SHOT ATTEMPTS.
yet, people still consider allen Iverson one of the greatest of all time. Truth is, Melo is much more efficient than A.I.
@Random Guy2000 Don't put harden in there man, Harden had a true shooting percentage of 61.9% in 2017-2018 season and Lebron and Kd both had about 1-2% more. Harden is very efficient already.
do you think Kyrie irving was efficient? kyrie had 61% which is below harden and Klay Thompson had 59% true shooting while being called top 5 best shooter of all time.
By the way Giannis Antetokoumpo had 59.8 and he is super efficient.
And yes WestBrook is horrible sitting at 52.4%
@Random Guy2000 "all that matters is FG% " say what? i thought 3>2
I think it’s an overstatement to say midrange is dead when Kawhi, Derozan, KD and Kyrie live there. Plus before Livingston got old everyone agreed he was a great backup for Curry and he religiously shoots turn around fades. It’s not what it used to be but it certainly isn’t as dead and archaic as ppl would have u believe.
1:14 haha he 6'8 and can barely dunk, similar as me i am very tall but my athleticism is terrible lol

Came to check the comment section since Melo balling for the Blazers. Goes to show how blatantly people hate out of their ass.
This was one hundred times more insightful than the ESPN version.
How can Melo be a role player when his defense is so bad? If you just want someone to move the ball and shoot open threes, there are better shooters who also play better defense than Melo.
Oak Land, yes, and many of them are playing in the G League right now. Which is why it is time for Melo to retire,
LOL this background music makes it sound like a happy ending for carmelo in like the 70s or something haha i love it
Literally zero defence, even with a coach that wants to play him 15 mins and using him only in post ups and pick and pops he is such a defensive liability he will still hurt the team. He’s done. He has to retire.
Being such a liability on defence is also why I am concerned that LeBron will not play till 39/40 like people think he will. I think after this 4 year lakers contract LeBron will retire because his defence will be so embarrassing it will stain his legacy...he’s kind of close to being that bad defensively already...
There's a difference between not being able 2 play defense and not trying on defense. LBJ will be fine
Doubt it, like @Prolific said LBJ saves his defense for the playoffs and key moments, plus Bron's game is multidimensional to compare it with Melo's. Bron's bball IQ is too high to not make further adjustments to his game as his career comes to a close, something Melo has refused to do and what's gotten him into the mess he's in right now

Melo burned all bridges in NY. There are so so many reasons why I don’t see them bringing him back. This video alone proves it.
mikedemo Yes Perhaps Being Paid As Much As He Was, But Cheap Í Bet The Bridge Can Be Rebuild. The Only Problem Would Be Melo Because I Doubt That He Will Accept Anything Cheap.

Everybody who talking down on Melo please drop your stats( high school. College. NBA) and lets see real bum and not the trolls💯💯💯 let’s see how many replies this get🤔
@Eloheem DaGod : I think it's because the real bums are the ones who act triggered over today's version of Carmelo Anthony, and want him to be something he's not. Melo ain't meant to be a 3PT shooter, he's meant to be an ISO baller.
Filipo Sooa 💯💯💯💯💯 everybody a critic but acting like they can do better
@@eloheemdagod5432 Exactly. Carmelo Anthony had 13.4 points and 5.4 rebounds to go with 2.1 threes, not bad for a newly converted reserve who was a starter virtually his entire NBA career since 2003, starting only 2 out of 10 games for Houston and clocking at 29 minutes per game. That might not be up to the standards of Prime Melo, but still better than what Ryan Anderson provided in his last season with Houston and what he's providing for Phoenix now.
Filipo Sooa his numbers are good ,it’s just the nba is now played by analysts ,iso ball is dead to a point where they don’t run plays for it, the league turned into Golden State Warriors offensive, a team like the spurs will fit Melo good they still play all around basketball, it’s up to melo now to put himself where his skill will needed instead of trying to change his game💯💯

Carmelo should join the warriors for $3M a year and get a few rings before he retires.
If he join the warriors, I can see a new champ this year!
The problem with Melo's hops (IMO) is that he seems to not know how to gather with 2 feet, it almost seems like he loses momentum. Even when younger you can see that has an awkward 2 step gather.
Other than that i think he still useful for post ups, and pick and pops
Ya'll remember game 5 of Thunder-Jazz Game 5 last year? when they sat Melo they made a 25 point comeback.. all of last year OKC tried to include him down the stretch and it just didn't work. Sad to see him regress so rapidly. He should sign with a contender as a third string player
