Im still playin 2k11. Gotta story to tell, I was doing the season mode when all of a sudden Linsanity began. I had to find a way to get Lin on the Knicks. I realized I had waived Yao Ming off the Rockets so i shrunk him, switched his skills up and assigned him to the Knicks. Now Yao Ming has returned back to Houston. I think I mighta jinxed the Knicks by shrinking the great Ming Dynasty down to 6'3 and putting him on the Knicks. My bad :smokin:
Durant is a better mid range shooter. Durant to me is 95-97 Melo is 92-93.
Durant is an extremely efficient scorer/shooter and is becoming an all around player in terms of rebounding, defense and passing. You have to re-evaluate Durant again.

durant cant pass the ball melo is a way better passer! durant has horible ball handling skills! if you watch miami vs okc in the finals when durant tried to go coast to coast that was an instant turnover because james and chalmers went to him and always tried to pass the ball behind his back or got caught up in the air trying to make a pass! if you look they alway pressured russell so durant started the offense and that was a disaster! he is highly overated in the defense because melo does a much better job in keeping james in front of him durant always get blown by! even chalmers when durant guarded him torch him 25 point over 50% from the field im telling you dont let the media hype wash what your seeing! melo has better latteral move in defense is a much better fundamental player and is a better rebounder the only thing melo dont have that durant have is effort! and that because of the coach his have i garante you if he was playing for phill or pat he will be in shape all years for the rest of his carreer he need to get his mind right! durant is a better 3 point shooter than melo but in mid range i got melo all day! and i am not a melo fan! :barf: but the thrut is the thrut!

Durant's mid range is not as good as Carmelo's, thats his bread and butter
Durant shoots way more open shots than Carmelo and also scores a lot more in transition. He's an open court player while our guy is a half court player which means he shoots mostly contested shots
Durant's defense is not that good, he has Sefolosha, Westbrook, Ibaka and Perkins around him, passing no way he barely passes and isn't known to create for others. Carmelo is a very skilled passer(former PG in High School). Rebounding you can have then again he's 6'11 with 100000ft wing span
Durant 2K wise should be 93/94, Carmelo should be 92/93
They are pretty close skill wise.
People always say the thing that separates both is efficiency. So if Carmelo shoots 48% next year and we get to the ECF no one can say he isn't a top 5 player, because people saying KD in top 2 and CA is top 15 is absurd
"You little f*cks i got money stacks bigger then you"
"Back in 88 when i was pushin weight, you was a ballerina I got the pictures i seen ya. Then ya dropped shooked ones switched your demeanor. Well We dont believe u, u need more people"
Cant believe Jay allowed that song to be on the game, Prodigy still disses Jay-Z to this day. Most of the Infamy album in 01 was dissing Jay
I believe it is forreal but Im not 100% sure if u these teams have to be downloaded or if its for the computer version only, I've been trying to figure this out
Stat will be an 84 on the game, Steve Nash is an 87

^Oh I cant lie Takeover was hilarious, although none or very little of what he said about Mobb deep is actually true, its still funny
And if anything Jay-Z switched his demeanor alot more then mobb deep did

Durant's defense is better than Melo. Just because he has great defender's around him doesn't make him bad and Westbrook is an average man defender.
Durant is a better shooter from all area's than Melo.
Melo has finished below 35% from 3pt range 5 times in his 8 year career. Durant has finished below 35% once. His rookie season.
Don't even make me bring out the mid range shooting rangers. Durant's jumper has hall of fame potential. Melo always been STREAKY.
Kevin Durant when he was 21 had a better regular season than Carmelo Anthony ever had. Even at 22, he's had a better playoffs than Carmelo Anthony ever had. He scores more points, more efficiently, led his team further and is just a better teammate.
Durant was arguably the second best player in the NBA at 21. I bring up age because Durant is a BETTER TALENT and is MORE SKILLED. The last player to put up more than 27 PT/G (Durant had 30.1) on better TS% was 1990. Melo has never been that good. Just look at their career averages, and this is with Melo having significantly more prime years than Durant.
Melo career averages 24/6/3 54.5 TS% 20.3 PER .126 WSp48
Melo's best season 29/6/4 56.3 TS% 22.0 PER .153 WSp48
Melo's postseason averages 25/7/3 52.1 TS% 19.6 PER .106 WSp48
Durant's career averages 26/6/3 57.6 TS% 21.8 PER .154 WSp48
Durant's best season 30/8/3 60.7 TS% 26.2 PER .238 WSp48
Durant's postseason averages 29/7/3 56.5 TS% 23.3 PER .192 WSp48
Can't post much till season opens n I rarely got internet connection these days....but dayummmm. This is why I gave Metro cred for MVP candidacy.
Goddamn. And peeps thinking Melo has more *RAW* talent?
No.
The dude's game is just more raw. Durant possesses more raw talent -- not yet unleashed -- than anybody in the NBA.
The NBA has seen Melo's before. Like LBJ, the NBA has never before seen the likes of a KD.
Thus, KD having very reasonable claim to being the #2 player in the NBA. And he is improving every year. And an awesome teammate with a virtually flawless resume as a teammate -- despite being in the combustible situation of playing alongside quasi-PG-offensive force Westbrook.
Let's not get into what happened in NYC when a offensive-minded alpha PG stepped in for a short bit.
In retro, Dolan was prolly wise to let Lin go. The **** storm that already brewed wasn't going to get any better.

you dudes will never understand what some of us are saying but I will not argue with you Metro because you're starting that bull**** up again
Carmelo and Durant are closer than everyone is making them out to be its ****ed up people wont give him the benefit of doubt when he came here to a **** team, played the Celtics by himself, the Heat by himself, hurt most of last year and yet got healthy, Woody put the team in the correct position succeed and Carmelo was playing better than anyone in the league the last month of the year, Melo's defensive numbers were vastly improved, he put on great performances of team ball and defense in the Olympics and yet he's soft, not skilled, top 20, a bum, a loser, etc.....
Whatever though the problem with Knicks fans has always been we never appreciate our best player and always bash him and put other's teams players on higher plateaus. Its fine Melo will prove you all wrong
