Gabjon... you are smarter than that.
That's the point its a team game!

Ok every year might have been over stating it but they would not have been a top 2 seed

I think in 2009 and 2010 they definitely would've been. Prior to that they would not have
At some point, when you are one of the top 15 players in the league..you take responsibility. The team becomes yours. When the Bulls lose, Chicago asks what else D Rose could have done. They don't talk about improving the backup 2 guard spot.

Agreed! but that doesn't change the facts, my staff 'ed up but as the manage I get blamed... I get it but I still need a better staff...
In 2010 the Cavs went 23-7 vs the West, good for a 76.6 win%. No one in the West had better than a 70 win %.
In 2009 the Cavs went 26-4 vs the West.
So what exactly is your argument? It's never Melo's fault when the team loses? The guy has been in the league for nearly a decade and has won 2 playoff series and it's not like his supporting cast has been terrible. It's not like he's been on the KG T-Wolves or something. He's played with some good players.
Regarding the Cavs I don't believe they would have maintained that winning percentage if they played in the west but we will never know. As for Melo heavy is the head who wears the crown I have no issue with people being critical of him or his game, but he does not have the talent around him to win a title. Dwade, Cris Bosh are better players than anyone Melo have every played with. His teams have not been favor to win it all and it not like Melo just didn't show up when they should have won.
The Heat didn't have the supporting cast to win a title last year... but they did. Bosh missed half the playoffs, Wade was on one good leg. Sometimes ONE player makes the difference.

The past being the past, I think Melo has his single best individual season this year. I think his scoring will go down, but assists, rebounds and shooting percentage will be up and the Knicks will win a ton of regular season games.
