CanadianChris Posted April 19, 2004 Report Posted April 19, 2004 LeBron had more turnovers (in fact, Melo is #5 best in all of NBA in turnovers). What the hell are you smoking? Anthony is 14th in the league in turnovers, at 3.0/game (which, for a forward, is pretty bad). Considering LeBron is a point guard, and handles the ball on every single possession, he should have more turnovers just based on time of possession, and Carmelo shouldn't really be close (which he is). Hell, Jason Kidd is 9th in turnovers, and he's generally considered the best PG in the league.

Yeah, funny how you ignore all the other accurate points I made. This, however was my fault, a mis-read on my half. He's not #5 in turnovers, but #5 FTA. Again, misread.

Yeah, that was a mistype on my part (I was looking at stale stats). That extra one-tenth of a point really cinches RoY for Melo, though, doesn't it? Especially given that his primary job is to score, while Lebron has to distribute the ball as well. Besides, your whole "total rebounds" argument (not per-game average) kind of makes your whole post suspect. Here's how it sounds: "Yeah, Lebron had more assists, more blocks (as a guard vs. a forward), more steals, nearly as many rebounds (as a guard vs. a forward) and a nearly identical scoring average, but other than that, Carmelo totally outplayed him."
Guest OctoberBlood Posted April 19, 2004 Report Posted April 19, 2004 Nope, not at all. But whatever you say. Melo has the advantage in numbers, either being a slight advantage or not shouldn't really matter. Clearly, I'm not saying LeBron doesn't deserve the award - I think they both do, but if I had to pick one, it would be Carmelo Anthony, and it looks like this board agrees. Either way, a very very strong case can be made for both kids, so this arguement is pretty pointless.
Guest Flyboy Posted May 13, 2004 Report Posted May 13, 2004 Dwayne Wade. *whistles* *strolls through* ... *whistles, and walks off*
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Posted May 13, 2004 Report Posted May 13, 2004 so he should won based on his excellent playoff performance that hadn't happened yet?
Guest Flyboy Posted May 13, 2004 Report Posted May 13, 2004 so he should won based on his excellent playoff performance that hadn't happened yet? If I was in a clutch situation, and I wanted the best rookie to win the game for I'd go with Wade. LeBron may be better in some aspects (shooting, passing, vision, etc.) but Wade is just as good as both (James & Anthony).
Guest Flyboy Posted May 13, 2004 Report Posted May 13, 2004 But... Wade can't dunk through his legs. But he can sure dunk on O'Neal.
Guest Flyboy Posted May 14, 2004 Report Posted May 14, 2004 I hate you. It's okay, bro. I have an alternate O'Neal jersey if that helps.
