Message: [QUOTE="Knicks411, post: 1173989, member: 767"] It's just such a stretch; he's playing with basically the ten best players in the world against nowhere near that talent level. Of course he's going to play well. That has no relation to the NBA, he's never going to be on a team with that kind of talent, and that kind of talent relative to the opposition. (and like I said, he didn't perform very well against Spain and Argentina, the only other teams that have NBA level talent in the world. The next time the Kicks play team Nigeria, maybe I'll worry about how he does in the olympics) I think 3 is too high for Melo. 7, 8, I can buy that. I can also buy 11, 12. A lot of these guys, there's not much between them. As I said before, Durant and Lebron are miles ahead of the competition. Melo was third in the MVP 2 years ago, and that was pretty fair to me, he was excellent that season, and the team performed well. But he was also nowhere near that last year. [/QUOTE]
