J Bills, I don't think anyone has ever said that Deng is better than Melo.

Talent wise, of course Melo is better.

I never got into calling you crazy like the others, but man your posts today make me think otherwise......

Then why have the Knicks struggled since acquiring him?

'Melo is better overall.
Lol Deng is a better player for the Bulls.

Olympic prowess:

Carmelo
Won Gold in '08. Was considered the best player on the 2nd most talented US Olympic BBall team ever.

Luol Deng
Maybe he's the best Sudanese born player to be considered an English citizen. i guess.

Acceptance? No...

Apparently, a whole lot of you have devolved this board into nothing but some fag-like meeting spot for random social gatherings like high school field trips. There is barely any sports talk or even lighthearted joking anymore. People who actually follow the NBA (Excluding Hawks fans) can appreciate this.

Anyone who wouldnt trade Luol Deng for Carmelo Anthony is completely ignorant and useless when it comes to an NBA opinion.

Jesus.... Even Thibs said he'd take Carmelo after Melo was traded to the Knicks.... Most coaches say the complete opposite.

I just may quote this, omitting the F-word of couse.

You fish for slurs huh? That's your MO?

It must suck being you. I mean really. It must really suck. Your the type of guy in a fight who'd run up and kick someone in the head who was already knocked out on the ground. How many times have yo done this?

i didn't fish for any slur, it was right in your post. it's a pretty hateful thing to say. you sure you don't need to come out of the closet? usually those who are so vocal against stuff like that have something to hide themselves

This is all becoming rather uncomfortable.

To bring the thread back to topic:

I agree that Carmelo has been a consistenly better player than Luol throughout their respective careers...BUT, this year Luol has taken a giant leap in his all-around gameplay.

In my opinion, Carmelo is still better offensively (and I'd still trade for him), but Luol is now a better defensive player than Carmelo...again, at least this year. The playing field between the two is closer to being even than it ever was. Luol has gotten better, while Carmelo has remained the same player.

A cohesive, well thought, non attacking thought. Thanks OKC. I accept your point, and it is the only argument the Deng supporters should present.

Right, your always the first to point out gay-bashing. Even though I've read you repeatedly insinuating gayness yourself. Any other tired tactics man? You gonna reference some analogy next?

I'm not racist. A little homophobic? Maybe, but Race and gay are not even close to the same thing with me.

WTF man?

Why do you all insist on pulling me into the drama? He's attacking you, not me. If he attacked me, I'd go scorched earth on him the same way I do everybody else who personally offends me. It ain't my job to fight your battles.

None of my "friends" here ever back me up when people like good dolphin say insulting things to and about me. No. People just do the little laugh emoticon and claim they're gonna put his post in their signature.

What about that dustup with Darkside. He clearly started that shit, but everybody turned a blind eye to it.

So now I'm supposed to join you in ripping Bills? Have my back for once and I'll back you up. Fuck that shit. Seriously.
