Maybe Kyrie could do it, but he doesn't have the gravitas among the other dudes yet.

It should be Durant, but Beta Male.

Thankfully Melo looks up for it.

i mean...we all know it.

so, y'all can have this lil shit.

but you did it...repeatedly...for three years.

"He's a great player, the leader on this team, and when we have a leader like that that's going to leave it all on the floor, no matter what possession is going on throughout the game. He just stayed resilient," USA teammate Kyrie Irving said of Anthony after the game. "He's our rock. He's gonna hold us down, and I expect him to do that."

You gotta eat that, Ba

Ky looking up to Carmelo

It's just a fact

I recognize this is an surprising turn in the agenda,
but Ky is still Ky

The problem is that Carmelo has ascended into iconic status
right before our eyes

Kyrie had 10 in the 4th. Carmelo had 14.

They were really the only two who played well offensively.

After the MVP. After how spectacularly wrong you were about him.

You don't take Ls. You're not talking about Anthony Bennett in case he lands a pro contract and is somehow a W by some absurd standard in the future. No rhyme or reason to your shit.

All of a sudden I'm getting called a melo stan.

>It should be Durant, but Beta Male.

y'all are just determined to be on the wrong side of history with this dumb shit, huh?

.

Mainly I'm curious if Coach K allows the players to operate off the wing or if he's rigid in his offensive sets.

On paper based on what I've seen from Durant in the NBA, dude should flourish. I'm not a huge fan, but I have to imagine he'll have a breakout game in Rio eventually.

And from what I've seen, his offense is far from rigid in these games.

Aussies got hot, USA hadn't played a team remotely as good as them yet, they got caught pants down. They've had a close game in every Coach K year-- I wouldn't read too much into it, they always bounce back.

>And from what I've seen, his offense is far from rigid in
>these games.

You know better than me, but I thought it might be the case were Durant wasn't being utilized properly by Coach K somehow as to why he isn't dominating as expected given how well he looks in the NBA.

Perhaps he'll bounce back in future games.

by younger dudes...nothing k can do about that but sit him.

There's absolutely no excuse.

I'm curious why Durant isn't feasting since he has the same skill set that makes Carmelo such a beast in the Olympics with the outside shooting. And he has better handles than Carmelo in terms of penetrating to the basket, especially if the other team has a small forward or power forward guarding him. Perhaps this close Aussie game will make the rest of the team humble and hungrier and they'll respond.

Outside of wanting to see the Jamaican track team feast, I've ignored the Olympics so far this year. Looks like I'll have to watch the upcoming games to see what's going on with the US squad.

Melo is averaging 18 PPG.

Durant played well in the first two blowouts. He was bad in game 3.

I have no problem with Durant.

But he completely checked out in their biggest game

The going was tough and he was bad. No way around that.

I'm just clarifying because he said he hadn't watched any of the games and was seemingly under the impression that Durant has struggled all along, wondering if it's K's offense, etc.

In the first two games KD scored a lot and had a really easy time doing it. Nothing fundamentally wrong with the offense or how he fits in it. He just shot bad and played bad yesterday.

and correcting the narrative that was ongoing in this thread regarding Durant.

Stellar offensive game. Growing more into a leadership role off the court, which is more important than medals or balls shot through hoops in MSG or Rio, but that's a whole other post to itself.



Am I with the terrorists for selfishly wishing he had better moments while playing for the Knicks? Good for him having fun and breaking records and such in Rio, but I want results with him wearing that orange and blue.

hell, Scalabrine can play in multiple Olympics and become "best player" too lol


But really, Melo minus well stay getting Olympic 'ships cus he'll never get an NBA one. At least not as alpha dog or even Robin.

At this junction in his career, his best bet of winning an NBA ring is as 3rd fiddle or even 6th man off the bench. No shame in that, it is what it is

>But really, Melo minus well stay getting Olympic 'ships cus

Not even close. At his peak, I believe he could've led the right team to a title (similar to Dirk) but he never had the squad. it is what it is. He was never Lebron, but he's always done his part.

Yeah, they weren't better than the Lakers.

Not better than the Lakers.

Dude scored 3 points in the second half of Gm 3 where the Nuggets blew an 8 point 4th quarter lead w/ Ariza outscoring Melo 8-3. They win that game & they could have been up 3-1 going to STAPLES after JR/Billups dragged Melo to a Gm 4 victory.

Melo is going out like a God this offseason

This is the same logic people use to shit on Vince Young's college career.

Two different categories. Orbit's subject wasn't even that trolly, he specified FIBA. Melo's AT LEAST going to be top 3 with a gold this year and it's not even close. People of a certain age are never going to see past Sabonis's greatness in '88, but Melo's going to retire with 3 Golds to Sabonis 1 (though that Bronze he won in '92 with Lithuania is low key an incredible accomplishment.)

Dude was 2015 Finals Klay status in both games.

He's gonna be an all-time great player when it's all said and done. He's not gonna match Bron or Wade's legacy and that's fine. This is a great accomplishment no matter who it is.

"Everybody knows that (thing he just made up)"

they cut it to five, bang, three from the corner. down to 7 looking for a stop and a bucket? nope, trey from the elbow extended.

According to Klay, the ball stops and guys are being lazy on defense aka the staple of a Carmelo led team.

>According to Klay, the ball stops and guys are being lazy on
>defense aka the staple of a Carmelo led team.

Klay has been trash in 4 games, great in one.

Draymond Green doubled the ball 40 feet from the basket with 5 seconds left and left Serbia's best shooter wide open on the wing for a potentially tying 3.

Durant has been getting muscled. Lowry's D hasn't even been good either. Whole team is out of sync defensively. Stop being lazy and blaming certain guys based on their reps.

>Draymond Green doubled the ball 40 feet from the basket with 5
>seconds left and left Serbia's best shooter wide open on the

Draymond is playing negligible minutes.

you up ten? KD's here to get you to up 30. That's real valuable and there's no shame in it. That's who he is.

kyrie? too young. even with the ring dudes aren't ready to follow him. they will be, but his time is not yet.

YOUTH CENTERS? NIGGA GROW THE FUCK UP! u know how many decades black celebs been going back to the hood building youth centers??? continuing to do the things that have failed us for the last 50 years is just flat out retarded. we need to BUILD AN ECONOMY- and the money is there to do it. we got mo niggas with college degrees than ever and we still DON'T PRODUCE ANYTHING!, you nincom-fuckin-poop. instead of putting $50 million to send kids to college, only to graduate and have to beg yt for jobs is the typa shit that keeps them patting us on the head and laughing at us behind closed doors. that $50 mil could be put directly in the hood by buying up gas stations, corner stores, grocery stores, liquor stores, beauty supply stores, etc. that would create jobs for black people and teach them how to operate BUSINESSES. If Melo, Bron, CP3, KD, Boogie got together and recruited other black athletes, celebs, and business leaders to pool their resources, we could actually take over the black hair-care industry (among other things), build factories, start trucking companies, and literally BUILD A BLACK ECONOMY.
