Simply a nightmare matchup for Bron, Melo can deffend him as much as the next guy not named paul pierce, raise level and a better supporting cast make it happend.
Edgar, the point you make when picking PHI over ORL (which is a legit pick) makes no sense:
Lebron/career (472 gms) -- 27.5 ppg, 7.0 rpg, 6.7 apg
Lebron/vs DEN (12 gms) -- 24.0 ppg, 6.9 rpg, 7.4 apg
Melo/career (445 gms) -- 24.2 ppg, 6.1 rpg, 3.1 apg
Melo/vs CLE (11 gms) -- 19.6 ppg, 5.4 rpg, 1.9 apg
What evidence is there that Melo is a "nightmare matchup" for Lebron? Lebron plays right at his career average vs. DEN, Melo take a hit in every category.
Well he does get 3 pts less.
What's Lebron's record vs Denver?
4-7
That's what I thought.
I still like Orlando though even if Lebron isn't scoring 60 a game.
Also I wonder what Melo's FG%, 3pt%, and eFG%'s are vs Lebron. That would sway an opinion on how Lebron's man defense matches up.
Same for Lebron's %'s.
And one of them was Roy. ANd he didn't even vote for me. Because he's bitter that Phoenix could assemble a team that was not only better, but younger.
Bitter and vindictive, IP. Don't forget it.
You actually beat Seattle last round, until I manipulated the vote count using my secret admin powers.
Haha...you mean telling everyone what Seattle was better before Hoyo even got a response in? The fact that you're a posting fiend is no secret, not is it a power.
Now the fact that you can turn all my posts into gobble-dee-gook , that is an admin power. Well and a mod power.
