Okay yeah these are valid points but Melo was the only player in NBA history to be on Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide
For real? What episode?
Lol Funny video playing against Countries that barely even like Basketball. Congratulations.
LAbron 23 yes he was
Mudlup50 the "Lost and Found" episode. If you remember it, you are officially elegible for a senior discount
G2V Gaming great comment!
If you combine DeMarcus Cousins and Carmelo Anthony, what would you get?
A Boogie wit da Hoodie
No team success
Sammy Deol nigga old
😂 W
Booooo‼️
UliB123 W
Jeremy Lin got a ring before Melo.
Al G Melo prob never gonna get one....
He got a ring before Westbrook
Wow Jeremy Lin got carried to a ring so hard idiot
Melo is literally better than him tho soooooo...
jellyfam jericho lmao u commenting on so much jeremy lin comments to hate?? bruh ur melo aint gon get a ring. selfish ass ballhog that didnt want a man that makes the team better.
Jeremy Lin has more NBA rings than him now
Devlin Langer W
The irony
He's not that bad better than white momba
Devlin Langer horry has more rings than mj
Carried to the ring, STOOPID
Real question is where does that wire go
The Lopsided Pancake, preach I fell like my phone is cracked
The Lopsided Pancake lol
damn, melo really did that to my man Jeremy Lin, but hey, jeremy got his ring and melo still struggling.
Melo got waived by the rockets and then traded to bulls and got waived by the bulls.
Melo might be in his house. He could go play in the g league or Play in europe or china.
Literally got carried to the ring
jellyfam jericho he still won it by being good enough to stay on the team
Yeah, a Free Ring and now Melo is back. 💪🏽🦍
I was cool with melo until I realized that he didn’t want linsanity in New York because of how popular he was getting from balling out, and he told the knicks not to resign him. That has to be the opposite of a winning mindset smh
Was that ever confirmed? I'd heard it was Baron Davis who wanted his minutes.
Exactly. The whole "He never had any really teammates to surround him" logic was complete BS.
@@jamesanthony7013 So he was supposed to dominate with washed Amare and injured Andrea Bargnani? lol. You do not know hoops.
Wally Osmond Chauncey Billups and Allen Iverson we’re both 3 time All-Stars playing with melo so...
@@seanblaze4788 It's kind of a big sigh. The year AI was there they worked out well together. Nene was out for the whole season though. Camby was in and out of the line up all year. K-Mart was rehabbing from double micro fracture knee surgery. The year Billups was there they came within a game and shots of the finals despite getting robbed by refs not giving extra time to the lakers and not calling fouls when they were clearly intentionally fouling. You want to blame Melo for teammates getting hurt? You can. But it's really stupid.
Never respected him after that Jeremy Lin situation.
Same I use to have at least some semblance of respect for him, after I learned that fact I completely stopped. Only reason I had any respect for him, is who he was in Denver. Melo was a monster he just never developed into a Lebron, Wade, Kobe. Pretty much being compared to these guys but without any of the success.
I admit melo did drive lin out of NY, but even if melo and lin ended up having good chemistry, melo and lin wouldve never beaten dwade and lebron.
Eric Lee Doesn’t change the fact that Melo got him fired because he was jealous. Melo 👎🏻
@@kobebryantthanosstopper5077 yeh but jeremy lin got locked up by the heat anyway, second off lin didnt do shit on lakers,nets or the rockets. Also he didnt do anything on the Raptors. Btw lin was my favorite player at the time, mostly cause he was asian like myself, and I admit melo was jealous of linsanity, but I put together what Chauncey Billups said, if melo was not the number 1 option on a team, he felt like he wasnt doing his job. Instead of getting rid of lin, I felt that he should've just sucked it up, but the main feud in the Knicks was phil jackson and Carmelo anthony.
Eric Lee yeah but he was killing it with the Knicks until Carmelo got him kicked off the team.
No because he’s not steph with a 40 inch vertical
Lol
Lol
Lol

Don't let this distract you from the fact that the Logan Paul Vs. KSI fight was staged for money and advertisement of a future fight.
DopeMope big fax KSI won SIMPLE
Aren’t u a surviv.io TH-camr? Do u like basketball DopeMope (I recognized your channel name)
KSI won by 1, yet majority Draw, can like someone explain why it's a draw? Is it because it was a point difference?
Rafael Esmerio 2/3 judges said it was a draw, therefore the majority decision was a draw
because 1 judge ksi wins other 2 draw so majority said draw
Pistons dynasty was built on superior defense and selfless play. Carmelo does not fit in with that, no way, no how.
true, he probably would have asked for a trade or something
He was so young that maybe the vet Pistons could have gotten through to him.
They would try and make him selfless
He might have changed i mean he aint going to say no to ben wallace and rasheed wallace
You all do realize that Melo came in at about 20-21 years old right? The selfish play hadn’t developed. If he went to Detroit, he’d be in the conversation for top ten player of all time. The only reason he plays selfishly, is because Denver let him chuck whatever he wanted.
He was mad that an Asian was better than him
@@samarthbhatnagar347 hey kid, that wasnt racist dummy
Cause lin was gettin the attention so he got jealous
@@justinamenta7241 thanks bro.Wasnt meant to be racist.Apparently in our PC culture,Asian is a racist term nowadays .wtf
@@tomturek9682 yeah its crazy times bro, you cant criticize or mention a group thats non white without some dumb asshole crying racism...even without proof or cause. PC garbage is ruining this world, its time for a change
Let’s be clear Jeremy Lin was never close to better than him
Melo is a Hawks legend don’t disrespect him !
Petty 😂
DUBALLER LMAO neva lost😂
He’s never lost a game
Fernando Gomez if the hawks had a sense of humor they would retire his number
i dont get it?
Melo is probably the only human to get bashed 24/7 and somehow be called overrated at the same time.
FACTS
well he's only been getting bashed for the last couple of years, especially after this dumpster of a season with OKC, as opposed to about 10 years of being considered an absolute superstar and one of the faces of the league
He is bashed for 1 year because he didn't prove anyone wrong and makes good-great teams worse
Feel however you feel he still trash.
greedygenius913 These two things aren't contradictory. What's your point?
Melo's agent is not overrated
Lol you not lying
Facts
When I think 'overrated,' I think Stef curry with a 40 inch vertical
Technically no because Steph Curry is good
Jay Solis he is talking about Lonzo Ball, they called him curry with 40 inch vertical
Steph curry is the greatest 3pt of all time
Or Steph Curry in general...I mean I'll give him that 2nd MVP but that first one, only reason he got it in 15 was because of his team's win total.
Well I think he used to he over rated but now he’s underrated everything he dose hat his bad they only focus on that they don’t look at the good things
Send this to Stephen A Smith he might cry.
Hahaha
Whattt
Blasphemous
ARE YOU ON DRUGS??
He might just.
In 2013 when they lost to the pacers Carmelo averaged 28.5 ppg and 8 rpg, the next best player on the Knicks that series points wise was JR Smith who averaged 13.5 ppg with a fg% of .290, seemed like melo really had some help that series
How many assists did he have? And what was melo’s efficienty rating?
The truth of it... LeBron can take teams like that to the finals tho. Mike is just saying that Melo is overrated as a superstar. As people keep seeing him as a guy that can help win a championship. But we all know he cant. He's not a leader
I see what you’re saying but the key thing is he didn’t actually lead them to the W where as other players such as maybe lebron or Kobe could do the same and win,
your a nuthead.... you said it he averages 28.5 bcoz he takes a lot of shot and you expect his teammates to score more than 13ppg...... your analysis is awful and your idiocy is clear ...
That was in 2013 he isn’t that good anymore nobody wants him
Melo fans be like:
"He can score"
in iso mid range...
He can't even do that anymore.
Theodor Dinu I should’ve added.. at 40% shooting 😂
Yea I would rather have lots of other players
@@Editor_Houndwell 1 year from now he eliminated the Memphis Grizzlies
As a big, lifelong Knicks fan, thank you for this video. His years here were very dark for us true Knicks fans - to have a guy who chooses themselves over the team winning is tough to watch for so many years. Will never forgive him, his decisions, or the Knicks FO for not only bringing him in by trading actual assets (instead of waiting for FA), but for giving him an extension.
If Melo had not been on the Knicks, they at least would've stood a chance to build around a good, solid core, rather than a guy who provided nothing outside of inefficient, volume scoring.
Thank you. I am no Knicks fan but finally someone who is can understand. Seriously, when some Knicks fans say Carmelo was a beast it angers me. Based on what Mike said, all of that selfishness that Carmelo inured literally makes me so mad. What a horrible teammate, I’m glad he doesn’t have a ring and he also doesn’t deserve one for his selfishness. I truly think that if you guys didn’t have Melo you guys woulda been just fine and probably even better without him. Shame on you Carmelo Anthony!
I was a knicks fan when i really started understanding basketball in 2005-2006 too bad they sucked. And yeah I never believed in the Carmelo hype in 2011 and up when I started watching casually and then devotly
Nuggets fans understand
Mike your first point about all NBA teams meaning top 5 in the leauge is stupid. The teams have to have a centre and 2 guards so it's not top 5 players in the leauge it's top 2 forwards plus a centre that usually doesn't deserve to be there and guards, every year there are easy top 5 players in the 2nd team
THANK YOU
I think melo is very overrated especially being a diehard thunder fan but that is a very good point
Facts
It’s the same as Lebron, KD, and Kawhi. They can’t all make first team, but that doesn’t mean one of them isn’t top 5.
ThunderJB06 what did melo do for us? He literally just tried to be a Russell Westbrook except Russ is better at it
Melo a future HOF. 19th all time scorer, Olympic Gold Medalist and a 10x all star. When u actually sit down with the man all he talks about is how dedicated to his craft he is. Melo is not overrated at all
Look at the advanced stats
Luke Williams .......🤨
Actually, when they sat down and talked to him after his disaster with OKC, all he talked about was how it was everybody's fault but his that he had his worst season ever. He talks a lot--most people full of shit do. He can score--I won't dispute that, he just can't play on a team and make that team better in ways that get them to the finals. Never has, never will. Stats ain't shit, when you lose in the first round ever time.
Hope it works in Houston. Would love for him to have last laugh. Only time he’s really been respected was when he looked like he was the best player on that stacked USA gold winning team. He was killing it on the WOrLD level
canttakeanymore Funny part is he's been to conference finals, Westbrook hasn't without Durant. Okc doesn't even have an offense it's just Westbrook playing ballistic ball and if he can't score he passes out. He has made the a team better the nuggets were 17-65 when got drafted turned them 43-39 a playoff team and never missed the playoffs while there. LeBron missed the playoffs his first two years but is considered complete...
Melo just left Rockets.. because of everything you just said.. lol.. I've been saying melo is over rated. But he can make a great role playing Vet.. if he changes his mind set
Bobby Biship BUT HE DOSNT
#staystagnant
Even if he and jeremy lin had good team chemistry. Melo and lin wouldve never beaten lebron and dwade.
Probably melo just like today kyrie. The real problem is the mindset. Both of them never been known so good at both ends of the floor. Not a good defender, not a good playmaker. The only thing they can do is scoring, and they also not that good scorer like KD or james harden. So, for people like kyrie and melo, think that they should be the batman on their team...... Man, they leading their self to disaster
@@ricli3614 and idk why he thought he could win alone v,
Westbrook: I’m really overrated
Melo: Hold my 0 awards
BlazeCutter 007 zero awards but he got a whole ncaa title and several Olympic gold medals right? Dumbass
jellyfam jericho, boiii ncaa??? Ya Stupid
jellyfam jericho OVERRATED
BlazeCutter 007 fatboi melo veeery overrated, linsanity forever
Robert Nørlund yes ncaa, it’s kind of a big deal STUPID
Houston we have a problem LOL
lol
Hahah lol
I was waiting for it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Houston went from being a great place to sign LeBron and take revenge on the Warriors to signing washed up ball hog! Really sad for them
K. A.
I know it really was it all changed when Trevor Ariza and luc Mbah a moute left and they were almost forced to sign melo so they could have a forward
Your argument for him never being a top 5-10 player in the league based on his 2 2nd team all NBA selections is quite groudless, as he played Small Forward and so did a certain LEBRON JAMES.
That doesn't take away from the fact that he's only made the All-NBA 2nd team 2 times...
Because there's also a Kevin Durant.
borRIING yea exactly he was never going to get into 1st team all NBA
borRIING KD's first All-NBA selection of his career was in 2010....and it was a 1st team All-NBA..
You mean to tell me that from 2004 to 2010 Carmelo was a top 5 player, but he couldn't make it over players like Paul Pierce, Tracy McGrady, Zach Randolph, Kevin Love, Blake Griffin, Paul George and LaMarcus Aldridge?
borRIING btw, the NBA doesn't give All-NBA selections by literal position, they give it to 2 GUARDS, 2 FORWARDS and a CENTER. It can be 2 PG's/SG's, 2 SF's/PF's and a PF/C
This aged like fine wine
Yes sir
He killed Lin's career and now he's doing it to lillard and McCollum
How?
@Adam P ur a dumbass
@@james-bt4lq Melo is that you ?
4:18 “aweful” LOL
no hate on mike just funny xD
I bet Mike was begging for Melo to sign with the Bulls in 2010 tho
Michael Chen and 2014
That was 8 years ago, in those 8 years melo has been hot garbage..
Sandernista you are fucking stupid
Sandernista what about the year where he averaged 28ppg ? Sheep.....
Joe Momma nash? Barkley? Miller? Pg? Pre-gsw kd? Westbrook?
Yup.
Thank you, I’ve been saying this for years now.
Before he even got traded no NYK I was already saying he’s overrated but after that I think MOST OVERRATED is fitting.
You seem to be the only other person that remembers The Knicks were balling out before they got Carmelo.
Ruined Jeremy Lin’s career too.
I can’t ever forgive him for that.
how can i like a truthful and factual video more than once?
as of 12/5/2020, 4.3k people think their feelings matter more than facts.
I think overrated was the wrong word. More like, he's been a disappointment. He should have achieved more in terms of playoff depth and championships. He has great stats, but like you said, stats don't always tell the story.
Some guys are just stat machines, some guys are just savvy winners. Look at guys like Bruce Bowen or Robert Horry. Not the best individual talents, but they find ways to be winners and contribute.
Melo's just maybe a different kind of player. Exciting and a pure scorer, but maybe not someone who just figures out how to win no matter what. I might get hated on it but Iverson was maybe similar in some aspects.
Or Marbury. It's okay. The league needs them all.
A example of a Bruce Bowen, Robert Horry today? Khris Middleton 💚💣
Basically
@Christopher Palmer I'd disagree. Those two guys were playing crucial roles to their teams. A scorer is a crucial role too. But Melo plays a style that is ball heavy and not complimentary to teammates. Same with people like Chris Paul. They're just hard to play with, and they don't win championships.
He doesn't have great stats though.
@@trentf4891 in his prime he could throw down the stats with the best of them. He was a top player in the league from a stat line regularly.
Melo forced the trade to NY because there was going to be a lockout and players weren't sure if they would be able to get paid as much as they currently were, so he forced the trade and signed an extension. It also isn't Melo's fault that the Knicks failed to put talent around him. Phil Jackson traded Tyson chandler for Dalembert and Shane Larkin, Novak and a lottery pick for Bargiani, Jr smith and Shumpert for Cole Aldrich, THJ for Jerian Grant, He signed Joakim Noah to a 4 YEAR 72 million dollar deal, he failed to sign any good free agents. The only good players Melo played with were chandler and Stat on the decline of their careers. By the time KP became a star, Phil Jackson was already bashing on Melo and kicking him out of NY.
Sure, Melo was selfish on the court at times and did have a huge contract, but he committed to New York for 5 years and the Knicks failed to give him a team capable of winning a playoff series.
Good arguments here I like that even tho I think melo is pretty overrated these are valid points
So you're just gonna ignore how he shafted Jeremy Lin
You do realize that they could have been a good team if melo didn't make the knicks not resign lin right?
like honestly, I think they could have been a really good team if it wasn't for melo. and also he basically destroyed lin's carrer. lin could have been a star but, no because melo just had to make it so that he couldn't all because of some jealousy
I don’t understand how a player forces a team that’s trying to acquire you to do anything. Melo didn’t make the Knicks trade that much to acquire him the Knicks made that decision. Didn’t melo lead the Knicks in pts rbs and asts for an entire season? Wasn’t amare getting paid 100 million? If Jeremy Lin is as good as people claim he is what is he doing currently?
Factsssssss
Pistons saved themselves by not drafting melo
Lol.they.will took melo.over darco if they can wind it back.
Yeah i agree Carmelo overrated but damn Pistons wasted a pick on Darko
When Jeremy Lin left they had the best record Melo had with the knicks and lost to the hot Pacers in 6 games
Stephen Blurry Yea cuz Melo was stat padding, all he wanted was the ball in his hands, and sure it lead them to some success but🤷🏻♂️
that was the year melo played more minutes at the 4, spent more time off ball.
Well, that was because Jason Kidd was there to get melo in line. Having a full season of prime JR Smith helps too.
@RULES OF SURVIVAL • Melo not in the same state as bron hush casual
Year before that they were real good until stoudemire hurt his self in the playoffs
Wait who’s even overrating him all I’ve seen is hate for a while all I can think of is melo fans if anything Camelo is underrated I mean people are discrediting his prime yes this year he was atrocious along with a lot of his time in NY but you can’t blame him for going for the bag a great hof career but ya could’ve done better
Damn bitch, punctuation.
Thank u and most of the shit he brought up for melo being “overrated” can be use in a argument for almost all great scorers everything said here could be used against someone like Kobe which make no sense and use advanced stats to say he is worse in the playoffs sounds fucking stupid watch a melo playoff series he doesn’t look worse to me
@@roddyman721 We'll see this season. Last season he was dog shit.
Rah Banks what? Have you seen playoff Kobe?
Straight facts
Just a quick note, calling the two all nba teams the top 10 players in the league isn’t true because one position can be extremely competitive and a great player won’t make the 1st and 2nd team just cuz the 2 ahead of him are top 5 players, while there can simultaneously be a very weak position where a player gets into one of the top two teams without being a top 10 player, just a top player in his position
Facts! I was thinking the same thing!
It’s basically saying Damian Lilliard is a top 5 player
NaCl T yes exactly. It’s just a lazy way of thinking
melo was never seen as a top 5 player.... lmaoooooo
Melo is a good player. Once had the potential for greatness, but got lazy. Basketball for him is a paycheck.
Paul Pierce said Carmelo was the hardest player he’s ever had to guard and that’s a fact
Paul Pierce wasnt in his prime
and?
who gives a shit about what Paul Pierce thinks about anything? He's hardly considered one of the best players of all time in ANY era even in his prime.
If Paul Pierce is your biggest, most vocal supporter? Cringe.
In a perfect world...That would be embarrassing enough to get Melo's lazy ass into the gym and maybe start to learn how to play some defense.
Lol Funny video if he just spots up and let’s harden and cp3 make plays for him look out man
Go Getter haha someone really hates Paul pierce... go cry
Because melo is hard to guard , he is an offensive beast . But mike is talking his career
Mike is just salty Melo didn’t go to the Bulls in 2014
Sorry bud but that only makes melos case worse. Shows how he would rather take money and being the first option/stats over winning. He didn't want to be overshadowed by rose. Mike only stated facts here
Kingx408 people would have been bashing melo for going to bulls anyway
Kristaps Anthony facts tho
Maybe back then but nobody is salty now
Austin Rayamajhi nope, only NYC would be hating
if i'm ever having too good of a day, i just rewatch this video.
as a big knicks fan, i hated the acquisition of melo, and it got worse the more he played for my team. knicks are better without him, clearly.
if you ever want to remake this video, i look forward to watching it.
Without or without Melo, the Knicks will always be the Knicks.
@@jqwiiiiqqirmnsnnsnnsnnsmjjrj you're not wrong. But melo was the most knicks move that ever knicksed
Not a 'Melo fan but I mean, as a scorer when he was young and had Allen Iverson who was a second ball dominant scorer who helped carry his load he posted field goal percentages of 47 and 49 scoring more than 25 a game both years
I’m no Carmelo fan but I wouldn’t say he’s the most overrated player in nba history. He’s averaged at least 20ppg in 14 seasons and averages 24 ppg on his career. He’s currently #19 on the all time scoring list and by the end of his career he should be in the top #10 overall he’s one of the greatest offensive players of all time. A lot of people call him a bum now because he is a ball hog and a bad teammate. No one is saying he’s a great player anymore so I don’t so how he is the MOST overrated in nba history. If anything his career offense is underrated.
Oreo Bug I completely agree
Ok, but if your top 10 in usage% all time! Of course he’s gonna average those numbers. All we are saying is he’s not efficient and that’s why he’s overrated. And he hasn’t won jack!
Oreo Bug, you're out of your mind to say he's underrated. Underrated means you're underpaid. He was never underpaid. Jeremy lin could be considered underrated because he was undrafted. Melo was drafted #3. Never underpaid, always overpaid. $28 million isn't underrated.
*One of the greatest scorers of all time
Never was a great passer or off ball player
He's one of the thiccest and slowest player of all time.
The reason he's hasn't been 1st team all nba ( a top 5 player as mike said ) is because he and lebron were drafted the same year and play the same position so faulting him for not making all nba first team at his position when a top 5 player of all time was playing the same years he was is weak when your using that as to why his prime was overrated .
Larry Bird does not play in the NBA today.
Oh, wait, I see...you meant that LehBroon is a top 5 player of all time. lulz.
Going 3-for-9 for all the chips (and coming out of the Easy East every year, at that) does not even make for a top-10 AT player.
Unless you are a child(and if you are get the hell off the internet) you have no excuse for not knowing better.
couldn’t have said better
@@zachwilson4166 according to mike melo refused to play the 4 in New York not to mention guys like amari staudimiar and Kevin Garnett were elite powerforwards worthy of all nba 1st team honors so giving him that honor out of position wasn't realistic hence why 2nd team is as far as he got
@@zachwilson4166 I don't think u read what I said
1st) I pointed out how he couldn't make all nba first team at the powerforward position because according to mike he refused to play that position out of jealousy to jeremy Lin
2nd) I also pointed out how it would be even more of a stretch to put melo at the 4 on the all nba team when guys like Kevin Garnett and amari were natural 4s who were at the top of their game
So no im not saying he didn't belong in there league i am simply explaining how putting him there at the 4 would've been unfair to kg because melo wasn't a 4 and according to mike refused to play
He was also second team only twice...
He’s a HOFer no doubt about that
Ben Wallace said it himself that pistons would have never won 🏆 with him.
Mike: one of the most overrated nba careers of all time
Also mike: shows melo highlights the whole video
Eli the goat haha it funny cause it’s true😂😂
Now that’s a lesson in trickery.
Well I mean the video was about melo. What would you expect?
Well, he is trying to be fair that despite the criticism, Melo can score...but not much else.
1. Noone said that he is bad
2. This is a video about Melo so what do you expect? Highlites of Duncan or Curry?
Melo is a ball stopper! ,but I wouldn’t call him the most underrated player in NBA History, now he’s in Houston and this is going to be the best team he’s ever been on let’s see if he can finally become a winner in this league
Lol, if Houston win it's won't be becaue of Melo
Who would've guessed this video prophesied Melo in the Rockets?
Yes yes he is.
IMO if melo is a 6 man then he can play "his game" without killing the starters
That would be a great thing for him in this stage of his career, but he wont do it. Someone asked him about it, and starting LAUGHING. He insists on playing big minutes and taking a ton of shots
His ego is too big to come off the bench
Well he lost all the power to bargain. He contract doesn't give him guarantees
Harden wants him to come off the bench. He is right then :)
Okc would have been noticeably better if he came off the bench
Denver before Melo in 2002 record was 17-65, Melo rookie year in 2003 was 43-39. Knick’s before Melo in 2009 was 29-53, 2010 with Melo they was 42-40. Thunder before Melo in 2016 was 47-35, 2017 Melo only year with the Thunder was 48-34. #Facts 🤷🏾♂️
You forgot about the part where Melo runs off his coach and all of his best teammates and the Knicks go straight into the shitter and miss the playoffs 3 years running.
Frank Moses okay, Melo made the thunder worse lol
lmao thats cause steven adams was hurt the year before and they also got paul george. melo was useless in the playoffs
You forgot bounced from the playoffs (you know when it matters?) every year--year in and year out. So he improved regular season records. Yawn. Just one more jab step, coach, that's all I need to win the game.
No one is saying that Melo is a scrub who doesn't impact his team, we're just saying he's inefficient and a horrible teammate.
I just watched the “AI wasn’t human” video and I loved it and I just got through this video and you made a lot of good points. The AI video got me thinking and I’d love to see a video of the best NBA players 6 feet tall or under. I’m a younger guy and besides Chris Paul, I’ve never really been exposed to many shorter players. Partly due to the fact that I didn’t pay as much attention to Nate Robinson as I should have, but either way, it’d be cool to see something on the shorter underdog guys,
Well if Carmelo Anthony really needs to become a winning player desperate for a Championship ring, I'm sure the Warriors have an opening somewhere on their roster, it does seem like a "go too" team for overinflated stars who were incapable of winning a championship anywhere else.
I agree I'm a Melo fan but everything you said was true unfortunately the man is selfish
Melos career is literally the same as Dominique Wilkins. Go compare their resumes. Almost identical.
CPGoat #3 yet niggas have Wilkins comfortably top 40 all time but say Melo is nowhere near top 50 😂
@@Mike-sx8nc but Dominique had a bigger impact on the game
Scuffed Curt how so? You jus saying that cuz he played back then and just assuming shit ?
@@Mike-sx8nc he's a legend, he is the only player to ever come back better than ever after an acl tear, he was also a much better leader than melo, he impacted the game with his athleticism, have you seen his highlights? He was a beast
I don't usually post youtube comments to just talk shit about or to people -- but Melo is the one exception -- for him I do it regularly. I watched him ruin the Denver Nuggets for years while everyone told me I didn't know what I was looking at--everyone told me he just needed some 'help'--no, he needed to learn how to play the game--or at least he needed to play the game right, and he refused.
Not only do the advanced stats not lie, neither do your eyes, if you're paying attention. In addition to taking way too many shots always, I would be curious to know how much of the clock he used in getting his points, because that seemed like the most significant aspect of his inefficiency--he scored, but whether he did or didn't he used 15 or more seconds every time he tried. He was a slow scorer.
The OKC season was the season anyone who was willing to admit the truth, but hadn't should have seen it. Because he couldn't score like he used to, the rest of his NON-EXISTENT game was exposed. Yet people are still trying to pretend he was 'great'. No, he scored. He scored at the expense of his teams not to their benefit. All you had to do was watch him play, but those stats ain't lying either.
How can someone be overrated if everyone thinks they suck 🤷🏾♂️
melo is washed up, but he definitely deserves to have his jersey retired by the nuggets
nah
You mean the Hawks he's a legend there
Knicks*
He’s made in out of the first round once and it wasn’t even in Denver. Dude is trash
Tyler Allen He made it to the Conference Finals as a Nugget
Mike is in the NBA and is 0 overall. One like is one higher overall. Can he get to 100 overall?
Christos Belibasakis sub to me
Christos Belibasakis yes yes he can
Here before 100 liked
*likes
193 overall
Id just point out, that not being all nba 1st team doesnt mean youre not to 5, it means you arent TOP 2 at your position or the best C. I flatly agree about melo and HATE how SAS has to go on and on trying to pretend melo is something more than Jamal Crawford without handles...or a shot at this point lol, but yeah not being ALLNBA isnt directly comparable to your rank leaguewide FWIW. But overall obvi agree with vid lol. Oh and I hate how SAS has to wax about how he knows melo and hes sucha great guy... lol then Max is like "cool. but hes washed up"
Can someone please tell me the name of mikes background music?
Tired of people talking down on melo
slime kyyo I know right
He's very talented, but his ego gets the best of him
It's ridiculously he's a Hall of famer the only thing missing was a ring the problem is he's constantly held to dwade and lebrons standers
It’s trendy rn , mike knows this it’s easy views and money
Honestly it's sad. He's was a very very talented scorer in his prime and he's a 00s legened no doubt but he needs to adjust to today's play style and his aging isn't helping his case. The disrespect is very real but he needs to prove himself on the rockets and I think it's best he comes off the bench
U guys are very biased towards him.
Edit: as a melo fan it hurts to watch this
Factsz bro😢😢
Nope
Loading lol he gave you all the facts and evidence just accept it and pick some else to be a fan of 😂😂😂
Don’t watch the video then
Lol Funny video Then he’s perfectly rated if everyone agrees that he’s bad. He was overrated because people think he’s good, now no one thinks that. Therefore, he’s just bad.
He carried the Nuggets to a Western conference finals (loss to Kobe in 6). Carried the Knicks to a division title with 50+ wins and won a playoff series for the New York Knicks. Scoring titles too. All Stars and All NBAs
Bro he only has one scoring title
Larry Brown would've ruined Melo's career. He would never get playing time over Tayshaun Prince because his defense has always sucked and Prince was a great defender. He would've been pigeonholed as a bust by the time his rookie deal is up and spend the rest of his career as a role player. Melo is lucky the Pistons picked Milicic. He dodged a bullet.
America First Productions The point is, he would’ve had a ring in his first season, would improve and get motivated, which might’ve resulted in more rings for him and the Pistons.

Naw he is kinda overrated tho
Y’all go follow me on insta😭😭 @_j.x.c
Check again
2006 is his career high
Dattboi J You're giving just points per game but you're not giving shooting effiency
That's why we say it's overrated as the hidden efficiency is poor and did not transform into team success.
Rudy Gay could average that much with the same usage rating
Advanced stats are a waste of time, most of them are affected by their team mates and not the player
Example being that kawhi has never had a great defensive rating due to his team giving up points
Leonard has great WS48,PER and Box Plus
Thats true but what i am saying is that advanced stats don't tell the whole story
It kinda does.
Never mind, i agree with you there. Defensive and Offensive rating are meaningless analytics to look at.
Not at all advanced stats are useless don't get me wrong PER is a great stat
Kobe Bryant has inefficient scoring stats too Homie this is ridiculous
Only plays ISO ball, slack off on defense, bigger ego than Texas, refuse to adapt in other systems, thinks everything has to be about him
maybe his career is overrated but him as a player he is not overrated he is a certified bucket getter
As a scorer, he's not overrated. As a player? He is most definitely overrated. I've seen him play defense once (as in one game) his entire career.
yeah like rudy gay
canttakeanymore 2013 second round pg 18ppg on 38% fg pg went wild the next series vs bron
Did you even watch the video?
Ryan Akers no shit nigga he’s 34 and vince is 41
4:17 your spelling is god “aweful”
Justin Stupart 😂
*God
I think that was purposeful based on the context, but i could be very wrong
I always felt this way even when i was young, (born in 92) he was always that player that made me feel like if u gave any nba player that many shots and isos the numbers would be similar to anybody above average
Great video
how is he overrated if everyone hates him?
I think he's overrated because he shouldn't get that many all star selections and all NBA team selections. He had high scoring averages merely because he had a high usage rate and took way too many shots than he should have. In essence, he's too inefficient.
This is ridiculous, he’s the best Atlanta Hawks player ever
Gabe Brown how original
I hope that's a joke.
He never lost a game there
Dam. mike still putting in work. This man might belong in the basketball hall of fame. Commentary is limitless and fuk on point . Good work as usual.
Melo is Jamal Mashburn and Jerry Stackhouse but with a longer career. Volume shooting, inefficient, teams don’t win. Jerry got to 29ppg and in 5 years was a bench player. Jamal’s career was short, like 10 seasons.
I’m a simple man, I see Mike korzemba I click
Everything you’re saying about the playoffs is based off 2 seasons. If you take out his rookie season (most rookies aren’t great in playoffs) and this past year 2017-2018 (when he’s 34 and washed up), his playoff scoring actually goes up from those regular seasons. From 2004-05 to 2012-13 which are the years he made the playoffs he averaged 25.5 ppg and 6.4 rpg in the regular season, and in those years in the playoffs he averaged 26.3 ppg and 7.2 rpg
G Antos finally somebody looks past the video
G Antos what did he do with all those stats?
asher siddiqui he played great, he didn’t have much help and lost to better teams then him
G Antos New York is probably the best market in the NBA by far so if he was putting up numbers like that you’d think he would attract people to come play with him but they didn’t because he’s melo and has never been a winner
asher siddiqui the knicks didn’t have much money then they had the worst gm. All your’e saying is opinion how about a fact
Most of your points are very valid, especially the OKC part. Although I would have to add to the Pacers series in 2013, yeah Melo was highly inefficient in that series, but I remember the series against the Pacers, JR Smith was way more of a reason the Knicks lost that series than Melo was. But hey that Pacers defense was absolutely nasty.
Melo just played 83 playoff games…
The numbers only go down one or two points from the regular season to the playoffs
This is really hate bruh just cuz of his okc season like he supposed to be in his prime right now all he talk about is numbers it’s not just about numbers I will agree that he is SUPER SELFISH
Even before he went to OKC I still said he not a HOFer
Carmelo said he didn't mind not winning a championship that drew criticism from his biggest supporter Stephen A. Smith. Melo had a chance to play with Kobe but the Nick's offer was a few million dollars more than the LA where he could remain as "they guy" until he was no more, falling such a steep downfall for a top 75 player who's carreer ended in a late but failed persuit for an NBA championship, coming-off the bench as a role player.
The fans that call him trash are the type of players that think every player need to perform “2k my career stats” for them to be good.
He was a great offensive player at one time I remember in the conference championship with the Lakers he was giving Kobe hell .but he is a role player now Carmelo never had defense that's what never made him a complete player.
How is he overrated? Nobody thinks he’s that good right now, and people thought he was good when he actually was a beast. Let’s not forget he scored 50 points without driving ONCE against the Heat. In his prime he was one of the purest scorers.
Numbers have just shown you that he wasnt all that pure of a scorer even in his prime soooo.....
Daniel Frank u a fuckin clown I cannot believe melo not pure scorer? Lmfao "numbers"
@Lol Funny video These are facts Mike is showing and you can't get away from it
Ballin Too you just put numbers in quotations? Get out of this comment section you dumb piece of shit ..
@Lol Funny video So is 3 playoff trips and 10 times all star is a top 55 to top 70 Of all time or even top 100 my guy are you sure?
Averaging 20.0 ppg or more, in 14 consecutive seasons, is hardly underrated. I know points aren’t everything, but you can’t take away from that either.
What my mom would always say WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND (Lin and Melo)
Can we get a positive melo Video for once
Wouldn't there have to be something positive about him to do that?
Lol people who use “advanced” stats to justify why so and so player is overrated are really scraping the bottom of the barrel. But let’s say you’re correct about advanced stats. Let’s look at the rest of the video.
You blame Melo for the Knicks trading for him instead of waiting because he requested the trade. That’s terrible logic. By that logic if the raptors don’t win a championship with kawhi it’s his fault because he didn’t want to be on the spurs anymore even though he didn’t make the raptors trade for him.
Next you accuse him of not wanting Jeremy Lin on the team because D’antoni said he didn’t want to play the 4, I don’t even have to get into how utterly stupid that is. But if you really think Jeremy Lin was a “star” for more than a few months of his career, you don’t know basketball.
Next you use per 36, the absolute worst “advanced stat” by all metrics to try proving melo “didnt” show up in the playoffs (show me more than 1 or two series his team should have won but didn’t, I’ll wait)
Then you get to the real reason you hate Melo.
OKC
Yes, melo was inefficient.
Yes, melo didn’t want to come off the bench.
Yes, melo didn’t show up in this playoff series.
1.) melo is 33 years old, he’s never been known as an amazing shooter in his career and was expected to be an amazing stretch 4 his first season playing the position
2.) Who on that team should have played over melo? Jerami grant? The spacing with him goes out the window and while the defense gets better, the offense was terrible, which is why they lost the series
3.) Melo is, again, 33 years old, he’s not Lebron James, so going against easily the best defense in the league, it’s gonna be hard for him to ball out, especially when PG and RW both were inefficient and tunnel visioned.
Let’s stop the Melo slander, cause it’s just pathetic, and it just shows that you’re jumping on NBA fan bandwagons that don’t look at facts. It’s why you called Lonzo the next Steph but with a 40 inch vertical. It’s why you say everything is “breaking the NBA”, and it’s why you turned a decent channel into a click baiting heap of garbage.
Dylon Swartwood I love you... I agree but I still like my boy korzemba he just needs to stop being biased that’s all
My point exactly thank u
You spent your time typing all of that random blabbering and hate just because he criticized your favorite NBA player?
Facts
Get this comment to the top
Carmelo goes to Detroit, he's easily a 2-time champ and possible MVP. Detroit in 08 finished 2nd in the East with 59 wins and went to the ECF... Unfortunate circumstances however, in an era of increased player mobility since 2009-2010 he has no one to blame but his own short-sightedness. I did a vid on this a while back but I agree. Good stuff.
He just wanted his stat fuck them wins lol
“The real nba super stars put up great numbers and they’re also efficient, that’s why their team wins games”... hmmm, is that why melo throughout his prime years (2005- 2013) had a fg% of .460, and Kevin Durant who everyone agrees is a super star and most consider a top 10 scorer of all time has a career fg% of .490 (not much better), and is that why KOBE BRYANT, who most consider a top 10 player all time and a top 5 scorer all time, throughout his prime years (1999-2012) had a fg% of .455. Makes sense.
G Antos fg percentage is not an advanced stat he is talking about stats like PER and TS%
Axilleas Pap advance stats are iffy at best tbh
OP GOAT19 yeah but look at his postseason stats he had 3 good years , i do not agree with notion that he is THAT overrated but he was a little too selfish to be a winner
Axilleas Pap people are using their hatred of him bc of his selfishness to say that he’s overrated but they don’t actually give facts why he’s overrated
Axilleas Pap PER says Jordan’s 35 season is 31.7 Wilts 50 point season is 31.8 PER is useless.
melo fan,ill try to be unbiased.
1 hes 19th all time in points scored
2 the nuggets won 17 games before melo got there and he never lost more than 40 his entire time there
3 first player to win 3 gold Olympic medals
4 had to face a historically good conference every year in the playoffs with teams that would be average at best without him
5 led the knicks to their first playoff series win in over a decade
6 is the reason lebron didnt win an unanimous mvp.. and last,in his prime, he was unguardable.
Melo not a hall of famer
@@camctrail ignorant
@@lorenzoperez8305 I'm not wrong tho
Cameron Trail you are tho
@@anthonypark8670 ok so he's never been 1st team all NBA, hasn't even made an NBA finals, only got out of the 1st round twice, is an elite isolation scorer but that's literally all he does. He doesn't move the ball around, plays little defense, and he ran Linsanity out of NY because he was taking the spotlight away from him. Doesn't that scream selfish and not a winner to you?
I'm here for the background music.
Lol remember y’all said Melo gonna go broke in this comment section?
These kids are stupid. 😆
