That said, Carmelo has been a huge disappointment in NY, failing to mesh.
That's why he's not a Chicago Bull right now either. Didn't think Wade-Melo was a pairing I liked, whereas Irving is a high-character guy who won't step on Wade's toes.
They've paired pretty well in Team USA basketball (albeit with tons of other stars). I think that would be a pretty dynamic pair actually and Melo could really use a player that he perceives as on/above his level to push him to his potential.
Yeah, I'd tend towards that viewpoint as well.
I think they'd be an overpowering force on the wings. Not to same extent as LeBron/Wade but they'd really be something special. Very difficult to matchup against two such physically powerful and highly skilled wings. To put togeter a defense that is capable of handing that force coming at them over and over.
It'd work the other way too on the defensive end. Two such physically powerful and explosive athletes manning the wings. And on the boards too - give you a large advantage in rebounding differential at the wing positions. Nice foundation to add too later.
I don't think they're being given enough credit for just how physically imposing they'd be as a wing combination. Overpowering.
