Message: [QUOTE="sufandu, post: 1652846, member: 874"] Is he above reproach? I think he is a player with elite skills and ability that has not maximized his success largely because he has not learned to or has actively refused to play within a team concept. Mock all you want. The success of the teams he's played for speak for themselves. As others have stated, players that have gone elsewhere have done well after leaving. And it's not as if he hasn't had the chance to choose his teammates. He has. Twice. I'm a Carmelo fan, even if you don't believe it. That's why it's frustrating for me to see him not have the same team success as his peers, especially when, in my opinion, some of the lack of success is his own doing. I like seeing the players I like do well. I think all fans do. If he is enjoying playing in NYC and he enjoys playing ISO ball, that's his choice and he gets to make a lot of money doing it. If his goal is to win an NBA championship, criticism is warranted. [/QUOTE]
