Pierce>>>

ppl picking melo probly never saw pierce in his prime, especially judging by what theyre saying in this thread.

Pierce who was with Antoine ? Naw I would pick Melo . The east was so weak and he had free reign on that offense . And when are we saying is Melos prime ? Now ? Melo isn't flabby and sick yet so he could even better still

As shytty as that conference was, it was competitive just as the western playoffs.

 

[Sensitive Blake Griffin]

Pierce for sure.

This is clearly Pierce. Pierce was a poor man's Kobe in his prime.

i'd take Melo anyday over Pierce

if Melo was on them Celtics teams, they'd 3-peated

2002 Eastern Conference was probably the worst in history. That Nets- Celtics series was outside of that huge comeback.


Melo is better than Pierce and this is revisionist history mixed with Knick hate. If Pierce doesn't get a ring this wouldn't even be debatable.

6 All NBA team selections(including this year)>> 4 selections in 5 less years.

Paul Pierce was a key player on that 2002 Team USA squad that got eliminated in the quarterfinals of the World Championships

Same people who keep citing Melo's playoff record, ignoring the fact that Pierce was on like 6 losing seasons with the Celtics. Melo never missed the playoffs not even as a 19 year old.

Melo wouldn't have won shyt with KG and Allen. Imagine KG trying to help out Melo's defense? He would have looked at KG like and the Celts would have lost to the Lakers. Kobe would have outplayed Melo on both ends. Only biased Knick fans would take Melo in that spot

You're a Melo and Knicks stan so you aren't objective in the least.

Pierce literally did everything better. Better passer, playmaker, shooter, footwork, mid range, long ball, drawing fouls, defender. Melo is just a scorer and Pierce was just as good at it.

Melo my dude but I've admired Pierce's game since we beat that Kansas squad in '97. Good job OP.
