I agree. Melo was 6'8", 235 pounds and he knew how to use his body in the post. He had excellent footwork, but he also had deceptive quickness with the ball in the post. He was a dog
Carmelo Anthony can virtually score on anyone at anytime. Melo was 6'8", 235 pounds. He just cannot be stopped in the post. He has a very quick first step off the dribble. He has a spin away dribble, explosive left hand dribble, post up fade away jump shot, turn around jump shot, spin around up and under move, and a lethal drop step or jab step dribble. He has the size, strength, excellent footwork to get inside the lane and score. He is probably the most fundamentally skilled basketball player in the NBA. Kobe Bryant once said that Anthony is more difficult to guard compared to LeBron James.
TJ Lord... Melo is my favorite player... but Labron's size speed and ball handling passing skills makes him a better all around player. Everyone knows that the only person that can stop Melo from scoring is Melo.
Post Ups, Attacking the Rim, Mid Range, 3 Pointers, Pull Up shots, Catch and Shoot. Complete all around scorer. There's a reason Kobe, Lebron and Pierce say he's the hardest to guard
@@DjAssassin98 to me if he used properly he can do that...and if he feels that the team is trying to do something serious he will try to be a good in defense as he can be... obviously he didnt want to play D in a team with a statpadder or a team with james harden and just hitting contested threes.... FREEMELO
Nah he’s rated just fine. This isn’t Rucker Park. It’s NBA. A league where team ball and defense wins and Melo wasn’t interested in either. Everything he did was for his own stat line. Not only that, but he had no sense for the business of the game. Instead of going to NY as a free agent he forced a mid season trade that gutted the Knicks, which was great for him because he got to shine and start summer early after the first round sweep.
+HOOO HOOO OK we all know he's a better all around player damb but he said Carmelo has a better post game than lebron which is true so him carrying a team us irrelevant in this discussion.smh lmaooo
Bro thrived in the phil jackson triangle system, it was practically built for his playstyle would definitely be a strech 4 today im the right system okc rockets misused him but he had a decent resurgence in portland. Definitely one of the greatest scorers of the modern era up there with bron KD Kobe curry
Most complete offensive playee to ever play basketball. And god this video just show how much this man gets the fouls that are regularly call on other playera but him. Go to a contender, Melo and they gon have to call foul on you. You are GREAT.
He's one of my favorite player of all time...to bad for him its hard now to get him a league MVP and a Championship Ring...But I 100% sure he'll become Legend Someday...
January's Own94 i think I disagree with u bro ,Melo is a good player overall regardless where you put him he gets results but his focus is not there anymore knowing he still dont have a ring and his team is slightly mediocre. He's my favorite stretch 4 and NYX is still my fav team.
The Don Shinobi you could say the same thing about LeBron though. I know LeBron is great scorer but whenever I watch his games I'm just like, stop shooting the ball and get into the paint. No one can stop LeBron and he does better trying to get to the paint.
He still have decent jumpshot, and on post he's actually still unstoppable. It's too bad he can't drive anymore; iirc nearly all his points came from post moves and threes. For some reasons his legs gave out in Thunders, and it keep getting worse from there.
I swear to u this is the reason I fell in love w/his game Denver, his early NY days--the Guy was an absolute monster on the block! Could face-up, post-up. He's having a very good yr in Portland, but it was hard to watch him jack up 3's all game long the last few seasons. The post game, will NEVER fade (No pun intended)
Actually he just failed to learn how to play team basketball. Melo will always be remembered as the dude who preferred to lose than let J Lin run the offence and win.
These 3 replies to you all fail to comprehend that the knicks front office has not been competent in building a very competitive team for 2 decades now.
@@badgrass_ph Super facts. We(the Knicks) traded away all of our depth: Gallo, Felton, Chandler, Mozgov) at midseason when Melo was about to be a free agent that summer🤦🏿♂️
There’s a difference between a basketball player and a hooper. Carmelo Anthony is a hooper. The footwork, the scoring ability from all areas of the floor, his strength, mental toughness and clutch touch of the ball. He literally had killer instincts on scoring the ball. 💯
and all they do is shoot 3s and attack the rim there's still midrange pull ups but it's so rare to see post moves nowadays Jokic is the only one who does it on a regular basis
I can honestly say he he always been my favorite player of all time he can do what he wants when he wants to whoever he wants it just sucks that he has never been surrounded with other great players to compete for a championship
This is the advantage he has over KD. I personally think Melo can take KD or LeBron in a 1 v 1. Melo just is so versatile on offense. His post up game gives him an advantage offensively tbh.
Melo never got the respect he deserved... His post up game is a thing of beauty. Him and kyrie Irving are my two favorite players to watch currently...
He didn’t have the team or pieces to win. He iso scored a lot playing the two and three because that was his job. That’s why he was hired and that’s what coach wanted. I say it was more bad coaching and not having talent that messed well.
godMelo was fouled on the majority of these plays. The refs and NBA never call fouls on him. His scoring average would greatly increase if he was sent to the foul line like he should. SMDH
This is where Carmello is at his BEST & I frankly, I think we ALL miss this version of Melo.' 6'8 230/240 skillful lbs--u can't stop that. Too many 3's & bad shots nowadays. If he has lost a step, he can benefit himself by getting back to the post especially in todays "SMALL ball"
This video, aside from whats the obvious, IS PROOF POSITIVE THAT MELO GETS NO FUCKING CALLS!!!!!! Worst officiated superstar in the league based on the refs bullshit "perception"
I saw agree I've never seen a superstar not get any calls he should have as much or more than harden and on a bum knee he avg 20 & 8 with limited minutes come on son
+Esau is The Devil flopping doesn't make u a bitch, the game has evolved so that's how everyone gonna play.. you can't call someone a bitch for adapting to the change. it's free points, you take whatever points u can get to win.
Honestly, I think Melo is one of the most entertaining playera to watch. His personal offensive game is just as unguardable as anyone else (including the GOAT). If he started his career in today's NBA and he can increase his stability as a spot-up shooter, this man can seriously dominate... Don't forget, before the Greek Freak, Melo is the best SF rebounder, he can easily grab 10+ boards every game and even 20 (with like 10 offensive rebounds from his own misses).
And from the 3 point line, and everyone on the web keeps saying melo is not even a top 30 player, he's definitely a top 15-20 even in the out of shape condition he's in, he's still more valuable then most of the do called stars, if he was on the sixers or Lakers they would be a problem
do people realize the difficulty level here. Every skill is probably a thousand hours of gym time. The balance, coordination, touch, power...sheesh. Just pulling up off the dribble so fast to get into your form and shoot a high quality shot...look at spot up shooters, JJ Redick, Kyle Korver, you really have a special special player who can take people off the dribble, high post, low post, mid-range, 3 point, spin moves, cross-overs - it's mindboggling.
Thing with Melo is that he always played with other superstars who were just as much a defensive liability as he was. i.e. Iverson in Denver, and Amare @ Knicks. So even when his teams were good, they never could make it past the 2nd round. Also playing in an era where SF evolved to PF or even C, and where players in his position had to guard multiple position didn't help him at all. Melo is still a HOF, but his legacy could have been painted in a different color had he just been playing for the right organisation, surrounded by right players.
This man has a smooth shot and he was a beast when he was in the post and that's why he scored so many points in his career. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017 to find me.
to think Butler can Guard almost anyone. Butler has been abused by Melo at least 10 times in this video lol in the post. I see even Melo putting it through lebron and giannis as well in the post. best post player hands down
Officials always say Melo is the hardest player to call fouls on. He's like a bull in a china shop and he does initiate a lot of the initial contact. But he still gets hit a lot after the initial contact and rarely gets calls.
+Michael Bishop well I mean lebron is huge and gets a foul almost every trip to the hole. But tbh it's ok because melo conditioned himself and his game to just play through the contact. It's a shame that in today's nba no one really goes to the bucket to score they go for a whistle.
Just found your channel, amazing basketball breakdown. I'm showing my players these videos before workouts routinely now. The attention to detail and footwork is what separates players at the next level. All the guys are top level athletes.
This is the way Melo should be utilised. Posting up on the high/low block, isolation opportunities, driving in and drawing the contact. The scoring champion didn't get this opportunity in OKC and he didn't play to his strengths. I hope this changes so people still realise how great this guy really is.
Melo didn’t decline as harsh as people claim, the NBA populous (analytics guys) just removed post play from the game. Dude can do this today if you put it in a system. This type of game doesn’t age.
Always felt like i was thrusted back to the 90s when i seen Melo Postup, Never understood why this wasnt Lebrons game, i mean it would be buckets everytime.
Melo's footwork is fantastic.
It's more his brain work than foot work, he use all fints and moves which he saw in his international and in his NBA career
bruh the brain controles the feet
Hakeem should be collecting royalty checks. Hahaha
His signiture spin move is a travel though.
Ramiel Iglesias if you're referring to hakeem, out is not. It's when the ball leaves your hand, not when it hits the floor
His touch and control while keeping defenders at bay...Melo's stronger than he looks
His core strength is good
He looks strong tho lol
Wayne Brady Kobe said it himself, Melo is strong as a Bull. I mean come on, have you seen his size
Hes strong but the cpaches ruin him... they put him in pf pos.. in that case he will look smaller and tired much faster ehich can affect his offense
And deceptively quick
Hes just too big and strong in the post to deal with, And the footwork is amazing too #StayMe7o

tell that to harden😄
Compared to todays nba definitely. The game sure changed you can’t even brush a player without a call now
