Dwight Howard went to the finals twice and one a chip. Melo’s peak was the 2009 WCF, or the 2016 Olympic games. D12 has the accomplishments but Melo has the popularity.

Melo was never the best at his position, while Dwight arguably was at one point.

Melo has the natty + 3 gold medals.

DH offense >> Melo defense

If I had to start a team with one of those two, it would be peak Dwight.

I only remember Melo for 2009 playoff run

That boston series was good in 13 in the first round

But really never saw him as some top dominant player

Dwight was a game changer on both ends. Best defender, best rebounder, and best shot blocker in the league at his peak with a post game better than he got credit for and was a top 2 P&R big man in basketball who has the speed and stamina to play fast and run with his guards on the break. As good as Carmelo was, Dwight was better. It’s nuts how underrated he’s become in the years since his decline.

Melo edges it because of the three gold medals and his freshman year in college. Dwight should have made the NBA 75 over Lillard, Anthony and Davis though.
If Dwight should have made the top 75 over Anthony doesn't that means he had a better career? College and medals don't count in the NBA.
