    Iverson is a cancer, what else do you expect? He was good when he was in prime, but since he turned 30, he has been a net negative impact for the team he plays. The Nuggets went to WCF immediately after trading him for Billups, while the Pistons dropped from ECF to first round exit. Is this a mere coincidence?

    Well one of the simple and obvious reasons is the fact that LeBron and Wade are better players than Iverson and Anthony.

    If Melo teamed up with prime Wade and Bosh, he would have had a good chance at a couple rings. So slow your role.

    Well those nuggets teams were imbalanced, they really didn't have much outside of Iverson and Melo. Plus they ran into 07 spurs and 08 lakers, who pretty much woulda wiped the floor with 12 and 13 heat. Really who did the heat beat though? They beat a young inexperienced Thunder team, and pretty much got lucky against the spurs the next year.

    Iverson is one of the most overrated players of all-time, Melo isn't a good all-around player.

    Both guys needed the ball in their hands to be effective, neither could play a team game. Isn't surprising considering the teams they went up against.

    The reason is simply Lebron. When you pay most of your salary cap on 2 - 3 superstars it often doesnt work, it does with Lebron because he is versatile player and can play anywhere from 1 to 5.

    Most overrated... hmmmm. Durant & Westbrock = 0 rings. Arguably 2 top 5 players... Yet only managed 1 Finals appearance.


    You want to talk about overrated... How about Stockton & Malone = 0 Rings
