It was a good era to watch basketball and all its greats. But I grew up watching late 80âs, 90âs and early to mid 2000âs. Thatâs when basketball was at its best. Too many rules and shit messed it all up.
Not 20 plus twenty exact. Dont guve extra credit for time that time didnt pass yet so it doesnt exist. Literally only 20 years still alot and still respectable but dont give credit you dont even have to someone else. Lmaođ
No hes the only player left from that draft not just start player that ish is razy when you think about it....especially if you take in to acount how much he plays each year
There will never be a bigger discrepancy between similar expected classes than these two. Just keep that in mind. Melo was a beast. Bron was a whole notha level. Real talk.
Sad? Melo is younger than 40yrs old and a multi-millionaire whoâs got enough millions for his offsprings to live in luxury. Melo is healthy and doesnât have to âworkâ another day in his life although he can travel the world as a paid NBA Ambassador. Heâs also got a son whoâs likely going to be an NBA player. Thatâs not âsadâ at all.

It really is something else to picture a young LeBron and Melo fantasizing about their NBA futures, and now 20 years later, they're both all time greats đą
The way melo set his son up was on some beyond lavar level shit. Even Iâm hyped for mini melo and Iâve always been a melo fan but shit now Iâm ready for his son . Kiyon, Zaire, and bronny đ„
It's crazy how these two guys set the NBA on fire. Now look a these legends. One has finally hung up his sneakers while the other is contemplating doing the same.
I want to say this about the guys who came in the league around 2003-04. Iâm nota fan of all these guys but they all came in and became legends while building their brands and wealth and stayed focused on and off the floor, no scandals or run ins with the law and they quelled the thug narrative within this group. I can appreciate these guys for that!
Lebron and Melo brought a lot of people back to the league who had fallen off after MJ retired. Wish I could go back and relive those first 5 years again
We gon miss melo man but weâll miss bron even more when he retires đlegends of the game, I jus wish that melo couldâve won a ring before he retired tho
Itâs bigger deal for lebron than we think. Heâs been in the league long enough to say goodbye to his old friends đą heâs pretty much by himself now.
Most people say Melo made the mistake of taking the 4 year extension instead of the 3 year that Wade, Bosh & LBJ took. His real mistake was not signing with the Knicks as a free agent instead of forcing a trade that depleted their depth.
Damn man, When he said itâs bittersweet I know just like he was thinking that his time is also coming⊠itâs gone suck so fucking bad the day he hangs those shoes up man. Bro been my favorite player since I was in 3rd grade Iâm 27 now. Dude is all I know literally playing since I was a kid in elementary. Smh fuck man itâs closer than we realize
You guys better appreciate this man while heâs here. Because we hear the same old song everytime a GREAT retires. Soon as he retires everyone loves him. Weâll never ever see a player like lebron EVER again. We seen MJ over and over with Kobe and the likes of others. But there will never be another Lebron James. Ever.
I love that he keeps doing this đđđđđđđđđ LeKnew. LeCap. I'm not necessarily a fan of the guy, but whenever he does this I laugh, it's genuinely entertaining
Why my Pistons didnât draft Melo still hurt till this day. I believe he couldâve gotten a ring. He couldâve went to the Heat as well, but I respect him for not chasing.
Now that melo is out, retirement probably heavy on his mind, seeing everybody who came up in the same class as you leaving one by one gotta be heartbreaking somehow
