    Actually he said it wasn't in order but that Kobe was #1 on ESPN First Take.

    I did like how Stephen A Smith says the D'antoni system has given the green light to everyone when Melo and Amare should be the focus. I agree with that...WTF Fields and Lin putting up so many damn shots?

    Melo also said he can't or isn't the guy to tell the team to "give me the ball and get out of my way".

    Durant nor Melo are better than Wade, them ? are one dimensional as hell. Wade plays both sides of the ball and atleast took his team deep into the playoffs which is more than we can say about Melo.

    Wade 3rd season in the league led his team to a championship

    Durant 3rd season in the league led his team to their 1st playoff appearance and a 1st round exit

    2 playoff wins compared to wades 16 and the championship shut da ? up

    Wade impacts the game in several ways that durant cant

    Wade's "clutchness" is overblown, because outside of '06 and last year, he has not taken his team anywhere in the playoffs.
    Wade is better than Durant, but Wade is not some "ultimate winner" like he is perceived.

    Lol @ Melo including himself in the top 5 players in the league...? outta here
    He's an superstar, so of course he's going to include himself, but he is funny for that one.

    Y'all sound stupid. Carmelo's opinion holds way more weight than your never played in college, let alone the NBA opinion. Carmelo evaluates the game from an intelligent basketball perspective, while y'all just go on nba.com and look up random stats and accomplishments that you think support your opinion.

    Y'all have to understand that the players could give a ? what you think about them. What they want or care about is the respect of their peers and the league.

    Btw both Durant and Melo said Kobe was in that number 1 spot #KobeSystem.

    Lebron over Wade?
    Even after that ? performance from the king last year?

    The same ? performance from Wade in the ECF?

    It's like what Kenny Smith said this morning, Lebron was able to pull Wade through the finals. Why was Wade not able to do the same for Lebron in the Finals?

    Uh oh...Kenny Smith has started something now.

    If he's the King why does anyone have to pull him anywhere?

    Lebron froze up in the finals. Bottom line.

    Howard is not top 5, needs to learn how to play the game first and stop living off athleticism and learn some moves.

    1. James
    2. Kobe
    3. Wade
    4. D.Rose
    5. Melo/K.D.

    wade cant never live down the fact that he is a superstar and the heat had 18 wins one year (WORST RECORD IN THE NBA) while he in his prime. NO superstar should ever let that happen.

    Wade is the best player in the League period... the only player who might challenge dukes is LBJ...and that's only because he's more durable...

    Nah its based off what I see. Name one player in the league that could take Dirk out a whole series offensively let alone a whole game. Cant no one ? with that fadeaway.

    Lmao @ this 31 year old lookin Teenager skooby takin shots wit that welcome back kotter mustache

    His nickname king james Duke, callin lebron his nickname aint ? homeboy cut it out

    Males who type "smmfh or smdh" shouldnt talk buddy boy

    Who calls him the King tho? I barely hear that in the media. He gave himself that nickname just like the chosen one. But i guess if his nickname was daddy you would call him that too. ? .
