And no with Mitch and AI.
Yall niggas love for AI terrible shooting ass is the worst.
Dumars, Manu, and Johnson ain't better. Manu ain't ever been the second best player on his own team. And Dumars was good that's it. Yall niggas ain't even get to see Gervin play.
And I can't respect TMac, nigga never been out the first round.
Ellis I will ignore that one.
I said they were arguably the deepest team in the league before this... Now it's indisputable

Chandler / Camby
Amare / Rasheed / Kurt Thomas
Melo / Novak / Brewer
Shumpert / JR Smith
Felton / Kidd
Camby, Rasheed, Novak, JR Smith, Kidd would make a DECENT STARTING line up... They the BACK UPS...

So many people are giving Melo and KD passes because they basically have to do all the scoring themselves. Ok, I can't knock these dudes if their teams lose because they don't have any help. But these dudes aren't exactly tearing up the scoreboards. Melo is averaging ~27 ppg against Indiana and KD is ~31 ppg against the Grizzlies. Reggie just said it's tough to expect one guy to get you 27+ points in the game? What? Since when? Dude ain't just a regular baller out there. He's the reigning scoring champion. Since when is it not expected for a scoring champion to get you at least 30+ ppg a game in the playoffs? Win or lose, these dudes should be throwing up major numbers every night and neither one of them has even broke 40 yet.
The way NBA defenses are now.. They aint just gonna let u score 40.. Your teammates have to keep them honest.. Everytime Melo touches the ball 3 Pacers surround him.. Same with KD..
Come on bruh. I'm not a Kobe or Lebron fan, but if you put either of them in the position Melo and KD are now, they are putting up at least 40. Hell before Lebron got to MIA, even Wade was putting up big numbers against teams like Detroit and Boston. I could understand if these dudes were just average stars, but they are scoring champions. If you the only person out there that can score and you put up big numbers during the season, there is no reason you shouldn't be putting up big numbers in the playoffs.
