paul george or carmelo anthony

[Blue&Orange]

lol Knicks with Paul George instead of Melo would have been between 9-7 seed.

Pacers with Melo would probably win it all.

Melo is the better talent.. but if I were building a team from scratch I easily start with Paul George because

-he has a great team first attitude that promotes chemistry and a great culture

-he does the dirty work AKA defense-->great leadership. Shows less talented players hes willing to lead by example and do even the small things. This is huge.

-hes still a very talented player on top of that.

Melo is a terrible leader and teammate.. he doesnt perform the actions necessary to get guys to follow him. He only puts effort into performing his 'superstar' duties and if his shot is off, which it almost always is in the playoffs he is a net negative for your team.

I bet George is never going to average 25+ PPG for even one season.

This is why you guys deserve a player like melo.

Carmelo

o rly?

Yes really

How much better do you think melo will suddenly get?

[veilside23]

Hibbert is their best player. They don't beat the Knicks without him.

o rily? without raymond felton knicks wont be in the playoffs :P

if hibbert is not there of course someone else will .they will acquire a center...

we are talking about starting a team not their current teams...

since when that melo is a better defender than george?

the only thing that melo has over george is chucking.. :P

[Shepseskaf]

Paul George can't carry a team offensively, and I'm guessing that he'll never be able to. Melo can.

Will PG sniff the Hall of Fame? I doubt it, but Melo will.

I'll take one of the most talented scorers in the history of the game.

Seems like most people keep talking about D. Are we comparing D or all around game? Melo isn't great at D but he has improved. I'll take Melo over PG at this point in their careers. PG is young and still trying to find his way. Like someone said put Melo on the Pacers and they win it all. PG on the Knicks not so much. The only thing PG got over Melo is his D.

[Legends66NBA7]

Yeah, I'd take Anthony and I know what type of team to build around him. George is a nice player, though.

[Xiao Yao You]

George all day

george

Hmmm...mostly Knicks fans picking Carmelo and acting like someone insulted them by saying they'd rather have George. Everyone else picking George...How'd I guess?

[Diegio]

I will take Carmelo Anthony, but if it was rebuilding a team from scratch it would be Paul George

[wally_world]

Depends if you have a defensive or offensive supporting cast
