Yeah because while PG is a more complete player, he's turnover prone, needs to work on his handles, and is nowhere near Melo's offensive stratosphere. PG also has a superior team and superior help around him which probably makes him look a little better than he is.

PG will have the superior career IMO though. Like I said, I believe he has all time great potential. I love his game and believe he's the future of this team.
Carmelo's offensive repertoire isn't effective enough to put him over George's all around play.

George seems like he has the potential to be a better Joe Johnson. And before someone jumps down my throat remember that Johnson for a period of time was probably only behind Wade and Kobe as far as 2 guards go.

Okay nikka. Well like I said, right now I'd take Carmelo, but in the near future it's PG and he will have a superior career and higher up in the all time ranks.

I know Pat Riley is probably scheming to take Paul George from Indiana and team him up with Lebron.

Only thing Melo does better is score. Paul George is a better defender a better rebounder and more of a playmaker. When his shot isn't falling he can still contribute to the team. When Melo doesn't get 25 to 30 he doesn't really impact the game. No diss to Melo because if they were coming out at the same time he would be the higher rated player cuz of that scoring ability but after 10 years of Melo I think we have seen his ceiling. And with George I think he can be a 25 5 and 5 player year in and year out very soon.

I'd say Melo.

I think PG's defence is being given more credit then he deserves due to Indiana's overall team defence. I wonder how Paul George would fare against Melo/Lebron if he didn't know he had Hibbert right behind him......he definitely has the potential to be better though.

PG doesnt have to carry a team like Melo has to. PG is in the perfection situation. He doesnt face the defensive attention that Melo does.

George doesnt have the responsibilities and expectations that Melo has.

Depends on what role, if I want an inefficient shot chucker who does nothing else but shoot jumpers, give me Melo in a heartbeat :ahh:

If I want a solid role player to complement my superstar, I'd take George Paul :troll:

When you take in context that Melo doesnt havea legit scond scoring option, you cant fault Melo for his scoring efficiency, which i thought was pretty good considering his lack of supporting cast.
