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.

[@thepeoplestightend1939]

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.

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.

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.

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.

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"

[@Marskidagoat]

Love your vids but disagree with this one 1.Advanced stats obviously play a role in showing how efficient a player is, but if you watch Melo, with his high usage rate, you know he takes a hell of a lot of difficult shots(which is his fault but in some cases was needed, some cases not needed so pretty 50/50) but then as far as helping the team win, no argument there, he slacks when it comes to that. 2.Melo has played on a good-decent team a good amount of years but I argue that there's been more years where his team lost playoff series due to injuries, lack of performance from other teammates, or simply being the worse of the 2 teams, than losing due to lack of his performance, but once again, the point of this argument i agree with is about playing in a winning matter. Melo does have a nick for showing up but not in the way his team needs him to. 3.Even with all the good and bad of Melo, the word overrated is being used lightly in a lot of people's arguments for Melo. I think most Melo fans and NBA fans in general know melos pros and con's. Being OVERRATED is not being a great player with a lot of flaws, being overrated is MAJORITY(50%+) if people ignoring those con's and/or making to big of a deal of the pros which helps ignore the cons. So basically if people believe you're better than you are and also ignore your flaws, I believe you are overrated (once again, only if it is majority). But with Melo, MAJORITY know his pros and con's, what he's good and not good at, if he plays to win, etc. Although I will say, SOME, NOT MAJORITY BUT SOME Melo/NBA fans overrate Melo, but if we're looking at it in the perspective of general ness, then he isn't overrated or close to the most overrated star on history. If there was a wider majority of people who overrated him, now we're talking, but in my opinion, 3/4 of real Melo and NBA/sports fans fairly right Carmelo so for the majority that don't, they cannot cause us to come to the conclusion he is overrated IN GENERAL. So basically from a general standpoint, Melo definitely isn't the most overrated star in NBA history, but he is Overrated by some people. But you can also argue that the Melo haters underrate him just as much as his fans overrate him so if you bring that into the picture, the underrate/overrate balance is pretty neutral with Melo at least to me, so thats another thing but Yeah that's all

You keep bringing up LeBron and stuff.. Alright, let's take LeBron off the Miami Heat and put Melo there, and throughout LeBron's career make his best role player ever.. be JR Smith, and put LeBron in the West. Then compare rings at the end of their careers :) Carmelo took a 17-65 Nuggets team to a 43-39 team his rookie season. But he wasn't given rookie of the year. Funny how these same people that go "LeBron has no help!" when he's standing on a team with Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love are the same people that say Melo "isn't a winner" when the best role player he ever had was JR Smith and an old Allen Iverson. While at the same time saying if you bring up his teammates or lack thereof it's just "an excuse.".. You bash Melo saying he doesn't step up in the playoffs, THEN when his team makes the Western Conference Finals you move the goalposts and go "but that was expected..." your bias is showing. Imagine if LeBron's greatest role players he ever had was J.R. Smith and an old Shaquille O'Neal. How many rings does he have? They'd never have gotten past Boston. Ever... LeBron bolted out of Cleveland to escape that kind of situation. Carmelo took the last place Nuggets team to the playoffs his rookie year. I'm of the mindset that if Carmelo is drafted by Detroit, people look at him completely differently. What it does show however is how quick the media turns "loyalty" into 'stupidity/selfishness". Remember when everyone was giving Carmelo props for not leaving for Houston or Chicago a few years ago and staying on the Knicks? Saying he was "built from a different cloth" by staying. Yep.. few seasons later, no progress by the Knicks, suddenly he is "just in it for the money." and "doesn't care about winning." and all that stuff. Just shows how quickly the narrative turns against NBA Players so that the media is never 'wrong', and they ride the way whichever way gets the most attention. This is why that 'loyalty' stuff has gone out the window, and why players that don't care what the media thinks about their decisions win, while the ones that wanna prove their 'loyalty' wind up regretting it. Ask DeMar Derozan who is the latest case of 'loyalty gone wrong'.

Type in melo's name and compare him to other 50-60 all time nba players like pierce, Carter, tmac, harden cause that's where he falls at and look at how much better he is in so many factors vs the rest of them. Still overrated tho lmao.

I dislike the video for a number of reasons but don’t worry mike you’re still my boy and I still respect your videos

[@Folsomdsf2]

The problem with Carmelo is he's just a loser. He doesn't have that winning drive, he's on there for a highlight reel. He is one of the worst defensive players ever.

[@benchima2279]

David Folsom ur a dumbass. First of all there are a lot of nba players that hav defended worse than melo, that’s just common sense. And also melo has been able to win in high school and in college as well as in international play. There are many other players that don’t win in their careers and still hav that same competitiveness, stop hating on a player that you kno nothing about and stop listening to niggas like MiKe KOrZemBa, this dude can only use specific facts that he searches for to discredit melo’s skill on the court. Just unsubscribe from this niggas channel

[@showtimenick824]

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.

[@dayalcober89]

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.
