"Bernard King better than Melo?"


  

          

Admittedly, I missed the good part of his career and only caught the tail end post injury. However, I'm well informed of his legend through the years. Or was it mostly "New York hype"??

Obviously he wasn't no Bron but how does he compare to say Melo as BOTH a scorer and a player? Team player or lone gunner? And who were his main rivals?

I'm trying to gauge how nice he was in his prime

T-Mac/Bk are incomparable
Apr 12th 2013

Apr 12th 2013

So then Carmelo is a Hall of Famer. Cool.

           He leads the NBA in scoring, and you say he's "above average" at it
Apr 13th 2013

Apr 12th 2013

Melo goes in the paint when they are calling fouls...
Apr 12th 2013
27
Yes...their gms were different in terms of how they put the ball
Apr 12th 2013

Apr 12th 2013
34
Anyone know why did King not play in 92?

Injury made him a bit of a 'what if?' but he does have more than 1 patch
Apr 12th 2013
31
IMO, the most under-rated player in NBA history
Apr 12th 2013
32
No Knick's ever in danger of being the most underrated player in history
Apr 12th 2013
37
eh, not even close to the most underrated ever but sure, slept on

Apr 12th 2013
35
No
Apr 12th 2013
36
At his best? Absolutely, though Melo will have better career likely
Apr 13th 2013
38
Can you imagine how many FT attempts he would get today?
Apr 13th 2013
40
Range is not a "FOH"....Melo is a better outside shooter, period
Apr 13th 2013
41
      I'd concede range, sure, but efg% and ts% still favor King anyway
