    Pierce was the better overall basketball player..but Melo on his best day was more unstoppable.

    Give me peak PP if I'm building a team from scratch, Melo if I already have an elite defensive system in place.

    How good of a defender was Pierce back in his prime, pre Big three?

    It's pretty close.

    Melo is a better overall scorer, Pierce was better from range and a better passer. Both are great at getting to the free throw line. So offensively, it's a wash.

    Pierce is the better overall defender. Melo is the better rebounder.

    I'm not really into excuses man lol

    He decided to get traded to NY instead of waiting for free agency cause he wanted all his money. We coulda used those assets to trade for CP3.

    And now he chose to take the max now. No way were gonna be able to build a team like the celtics has with a guy making 25 M's. That's why are team isn't as good, arnt you a knick fan? You should know this, get your head outta your ass

    08/09 Nuggets were crazy good. They would have won the title that year if they didn't run into the Lakers.
