So, I'm not a big basketball fan really(in fact I've been indifferent to the NBA since the end of the Jordan Bulls), but with respect to Carmelo Anthony I keep hearing on sports talk radio, ESPN, etc(all of which suck when not football season) that he's essentially a one-dimensional player-great scorer, but no defense, no team game, just give him the ball and let him score. Colin Cowherd this morning compared him to Domick Wilkins and George Gervin(both before my time) but I get the point.
Would u Syracuse fans say this is an accurate portrayal of Carmelo? And, what was his team game like a SU? The end result speaks for itself, but did he play D, or did he just score at will over overmatched college kids? I remember back in 2003 people actually were debating whether the Cavs should actually take him over Lebron-and as much as I(and 99% of the rest of the planet) hates Lebron u gotta admit it's foolish looking back
