These kids now a days don’t know how nice Denver Melo was. One of my favorite players to watch growing up
FACTS!!!! HEZO MELO!!!!
@SK104 I wish I got to see all the ogs play at their athletic peak or in their prime I'm glad yall got to see that
@@djsuperrap6685 Melo is not an OG. Lol. He was just another good scorer in an era full of dudes putting up 25+ on 45% shooting or better.
@@zachaltif6321 no I was just saying back in the day when basketball was more entertaining to watch back then and melo was just one of those guys entertaining to watch back in his nuggets days. and that's when I was saying I wish I grew up in the era when things were fun and entertaining i just ain't get to see that dont gemme wrong today's basketball has cool moments now and then but like i said that i gotta look at highlights now of of games and I could be like aye I remember when he did this and that I can't say that. That's why I'm like man I'm happy for those who either gotta be a teen in 2000s watching the games or being in your 20s or so. Like 1980 1981 1982 1983 1984 1985 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 good times to be around but again I'm happy for you and whoever's gotta see fun and entertaining stuff
@@djsuperrap6685 lol and he wrong too
Thank you Carmelo for giving us 19 years of pure greatness
Come on now....a good 7 years max
@@kyleyoung7980 come one now.... I'm talking about his whole career... Plus he was named top 75 of all time... So relax
@@darkgable85 neva!
@@kyleyoung7980 oh you're one of those
@@darkgable85 no, you!
his game was so pure. he could give it to you from the perimeter, midrange, post, and had the strength to bully folks in the paint
One the best scorers to ever lace them up
@Brendon Moore Too far man.....too far
And Smoothest!
@@rayapp7143 where you rank him? I got him top 5
@@user-wt8im2ro1p Me too, but he's not the best
@@rayapp7143 he’s top 60-70 at best!
Melo vs Kobe was pure art.
Kobe reactions after Melo scored was hilarious.
One of the most skilled offensive players of all time.
Much needed. Time is going by, people are starting to forget about how much of a bucket Melo was. He was really unguardable.
I love using that throwback 2k team with him, Iverson and JR.... k Mart
I never watched him in his prime so I looked this up and I’m really not impressed
Melo put in work that season. That playoff series verses Kobe was fun to watch.
Kobe reactions to Melo scoring😂 you don't miss?
Melo- Kobe - MJ - KD - Tmac are the best pure scorers ever
And AI
T-MAC also
@@yohannlivai9220 he said TMac.
Lin...
Wat does "pure" scorer mean... and is kyrie one of them?
Nobody in nba history can guard prime melo
Lebron
@@WankFrest 😭😭😭 that’s a joke… I’d hope?
The best Triple Threat scorer I've seen, during my generation. When he has a live dribble, from a stationary position, you were at Melo's mercy.
You ever seen that video at Team USA practice...where it's just Melo scoring on the whole team from Triple-Threat?
Melo was the goat of losing in the 1st round of the playoffs
Which was it, triple threat or live dribble?
@@ctwwtc8761 Naw that crown is for my boy T-Mac. Melo made it out 1st round 3 or 4 times in his career.
@@boombenjamin92 unfortunately that boy tmac could do wonders, but apparently the playoffs always had a way to screw things up for him
Top 3-5 scorer ever, top 3-4 post scorer ever, top 1-3 Iso scorer ever. People need to understand how great Carmelo career is😁🔥
Lmao damn nigga where kd n Kobe at den??
@@jaycatch3397 Kd and Kobe are also top 5
Definitely a great power player to watch
@Zach Altif bro even at the SF position you have Lebron, KD, Tmac, even Paul George is just as better offensively and a much better defensive player
Nah bro.....you reaching. Melo is a beast but wilt, Kareem, Jordan, kobe, Karl Malone, KD, even Bernard king are better scorers than melo. Which is cool because they’re all time great scorers.
These were the best Nuggets jerseys of all time.
Powder blue was goated
“That blue and Yellow shit to make em call you Carmelo”
@@samfisher170 and my jew-els blue and yellow 🔥🔥🔥
The dark blue and yellow is so clean, they need to wear those again
@@samfisher170 lol classic line
It was fire. Why would they change it, now they look like the pacers with the navy and yellow
Greg Popovich: I would take Carmelo in a heartbeat... He has the answer for every defense. I’m not worried about his defense.
That’s all you need to know.
@Cry Over Facts That statement was towards a prime Melo.
@@SDSOverfiend facts bro niggas need to really understand how ridiculously good this man was lol… one of the most elite scorers of all time
@@SDSOverfiend you’re point u would want prime jordan not wizards jordan
@@keeppushin2697 No… that’s your point. You tried to go left field saying some bullshit.
Couldn't have put it better, that's why pop is also a goat 🙌
Can you do a “ISO” Joe Johnson highlight reel
You’re a legend for suggesting this💯
Those '07-'09 seasons were quality.
Joe was slept on 🤦🏽♂️ but he was KILLIN!!!
Most underrated all-star EVER!💪🏀
@@Ginga yup. That was peak "Iso" Joe.
He was the most offensively talented SF ever‼️
Either him, tmac, or KD
@@bakothegreat6986 KD may be the most efficient scorer ever (He’s 7ft with an even greater wingspan) but he’s not the most talented-his post game is limited.
T-Mac in Orlando had the entire offensive package but relied heavily on his athletic ability as opposed to skill/technique, which ended up crippling his back.
Whereas Melo’s still playing b/c he relies on skills over athleticism to get buckets.
I think so!
@@Lexgluger01 this was a great breakdown brother i agree with u totally!!
Right on the money
I do believe he is going to be one of those disrespected greats when he retires that people forget how good he was. Hopefully this video will help. Great work!
Olympic Melo will remain a thing though. I think Penny, T-Mac, Prime VC, Ginobili, Jamal Crawford and young D-Wade will be forgotten more easily. I thought he would average like 26-27 ppg in 08-09.
@@jwdw9745 fax d wade be gettin disrespected people say AI better but all he has to show over wade is one MVP and let’s not act like the 09 mvp wasn’t suppose to go to wade. wade has more accolades is a better team player, one of the most unselfish players ever, was so dominant at one point they were comparing him MJ and he was up there wit bron in praise if wasn’t for injuries wade wud be jus as great possibly even greater than bron mans was a absolute beast and was undersized as a Two Guard💯
The same way people be disrespecting Paul Pierce like he didn’t have legendary battles vs the other greats
nah he's already overrated
He has speed, size, and touch from the outside. He will be great in any era of basketball. But, the moment he becomes a hired gun (team that will give him the most money$ ) and then not winning a championship will be forever be his legacy
I swear to god I was just thinking to myself “ I wish he would make a nuggets melo highlight video” Glooks
Peak Melo..Scoring Machine all around.
One of the most gifted scorers of all time, and a nightmare for any opponent. Melo might not get the credit he deserves but his peers know the deal
🎯🎯🎯
So glad you did this, carmelo has zero weaknesses. Nothing he can't do on the offensive end, and if he gets hot he's not missing jump shots. Smoothest player between him and Mcgrady is hard to say sometimes. Mcgrady in 03 was just surreal tho
It's actually insane how during these seasons (nuggets) and 2012 (knicks) people were comparing him to top 2-3 in the entire league. Now it's like people act like he wasn't even talk about when it comes to greats
Top 5 pure scorer of all time EASILY. Nobody could fuck with Melo from 2005-2015
Except for Roy Hibbert when he rejected Melo's overrated ass in the 2013 playoffs and unofficially closed the door on his career as a Knick. Lmao. Please.
Nuggets melo was insane
Basketball today really is a what have you done for me lately thing these days. People throwing shade on Melo for years. They just forgot how good he is…we remember
My favorite Scorer of all time! Happy Retirement, Stay Melo!
I got introduced to Carmelo Anthony while watching Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide when I was a kid. After that episode was over I immediately looked him up and started to watch him play, and he was a walking highlight reel. He was electric with the ball and always brought the best out of his teams.
Congratulations on a great career, Melo. Go have fun in retirement
One of my favorite episodes
The speed of his pull-up was problematic 🔥🔥🔥and he was fast as lightning off that first step
One of the purest scorers I've ever seen....
I really thought they was gonna win a chip that year.
🐐my childhood Goat
This is by far one of my fave seasons from him. Great work
Kobe reactions after Melo scored almost every time in the west finals had me rolling.😂
Was JUST talkin bout this, needed this 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I still remember scoring 15/15 3 pointers with melo on 2k8 on the hardest mode winning $20 against my friend when I was 17 years old lol
Nuggets Melo was God tier on 2k
Bro you are a LEGEND for this! Denver Melo is my favorite and people need to remember how much of a killer he was back then🔥🔥 Great job man!!
Watching melo is like watching my childhood.. thanks for the memories
Unguardable, fell in love with Melo when I was middle school! Thank you Melo!!
Man that pullup jumper is so quick! He stops on a dime and it’s so effortless! Great video!
One of my favorite players to use in NBA2k… nobody stopping his jumper
Thank u for this one !!! One of the best offensively players ever
Still on top of his game w the Portland Trailblazers 🔥🔥
This is MY favorite player of all time. I love this melo. Can’t tell me no different
Happy Retirement, Thank you Melo #StayMe70
Thanks for this video, this is a really good one. We can learn so much things through Melo's game. Nice Work !
Thank you Melo❤ He gave Denver a chance and now we honored his legacy with an NBA Title
Watching Melo that season was like watching Roy Jones Jr in his prime clean out the division.
09’ Melo had no equal. He was legend!
#stayme70
Needed this 🙌🏾🔥
If it wasn‘t for Kobe, he‘d be a Champion by now. Such a brillant „Pick your Poison“ Player.
Kobe was on a Mission though. He averaged 30-6-5 in the Playoffs that year.
Melo won 3 playoff rounds in 20 years. He was trash
That’s a reach lol
@@ctwwtc8761 calm down espn fan boi no need to show u never touched basketball
Crazy this wasn’t near one of his best individual seasons, averaged 22ppg and didn’t make the all star team
He was one dimensional. All he ever wanted to do was score. Way too selfish
@@christopherbogan802 not this year or in 2015-16 but every other time in prime, yes
@@DC180PP exactly
Wasn't he injured a lot
@@stephcurrytheg.o.a.t he played 66 games that year still enough to qualify
What a great wcf that was 🔥🔥🔥🔥💯
His biggest mistake was taking the knicks money and not going out in free agency and look for a great team to play with in his prime. He was loyal like Iverson and it cost him titles. Ppl forget he scored 20 plus points for 14 seasons. First ballot hall of fame just based on that alone
🔥🔥👍👍 I personally requested this one a few weeks ago....appreciated
Maxa your work is a gift to the basketball community . Thank you so much . Please do special videos on midrange jumpers abs defense . ❤️
IM THANKFUL FOR YOU MAN ‼️‼️‼️‼️
Love your work bro,huge hoop fan so I appreciate all these videos
Bro u are literally the best nba content creator for highlights!!! Love your videos , keep making these!!
Max on his grind and I love it!
Worth coming back to this>>>
Yesss sir I was waiting on this one 👏🏾👏🏾
Been waiting on this one for a while
I could never get over how he combined speed , strength , finesse , & power , fav scoring style ever
been waiting on this 🙏🏼
2nd favorite player of all time behind the Mamba, Melo played with so much smoothness
Thanks man for this one
this channel
always putting out the best highlights
The best jumper 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Great content as always max! This is by far the best NBA highlight channel on youtube. I know these take a ton of effort and I'm sure you're busy, so I know you can't get to everything, but here a couple of GOAT SZN's I'd love to see if you could find the time!
1. Chris Webber 2000-2001 with the Sacramento.
2. Chris Bosh 2009-2010 with Toronto.
3. Jason Richardson 2005-2006 with GSW.
4. Gary Payton - 1999-2000 with Seattle.
5. Rasheed Wallace 2001-2002 with Portland (bonus points for every clip of him getting a tech lol)
Man I wished so much this video thanks
This is sick!
Yung Vintage Melo, He was an all-around consistent scintillating scorer
Maxamillion you are the god of highlights man. Keep up the great work. Im lovin it.
Love the profile pic
On one on one , and isolation high post plays , probably the most letal scorer of all time , pure class , what a player melo
Really appreciate this one 🤝
Nuggets Melo Midrange was different 🔥🔥
i love how when he shoots a jumper he doesnt just let it rip as fast as possible, he stares down his defender first every time
I hope Melo gets to play in Denver again. Although he was way past his prime, his wisdom and experience will bring a difference to new stars on the team like Jokic, Murray, and MPJ.
Not gonna lie just thinking about melo and jokic on the roster seems so nice rn.
Sadly he retired and nuggets didn’t need his wisdom or experience
One of the most prolific scorers of this decade
My favorite Melo year !!
1:50 the sound of the rim after that Mid range is music to my ears
Prime Melo was a menace on offensive end.
Legend.
Best pivot footwork the game has seen in a long time if ever. Melo in his younger days had such a silky smooth jumper it’s crazy he didn’t win a chip. He was a serious problem
Melo was my favorite nuggets player growing up
MELO 2008-09 was COLD🥶🥶🥶
Thank you!!!!!
Thank you
My second favorite small forward in my top 5 players all time personal favorite . I know he not 5 but I love his game
He had one of the biggest bags to play the game with a super quick release. And he made it look easy.
Been waiting for this one
Wow! THKS man 👊🏼👊🏼
FINALLY ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
Niggas be forgettin how unstoppable Denver melo was buddy was goated💯
THE GOAT 🐐
I'm only 14 and Melo don't enough respect fr
Denver Highlights 😍omg
Made me a nuggets fan Enjoy retirement 🙏🏿🙏🏿
He might not be the most efficient scorer but damn is it satisfying watching him go to work
You look at some of the best defenders of this era, They all give props to two people, Kobe because well, he the mamba.
But there was one other person who instilled fear in defenses around the league, and that man is Carmelo Anthony. You can go on any podcast or search any video and they will say how hard it was to guard Melo. Absolutely one of the all time great bucket getters, Fuck the media for what they did to him
‼️
Hezzzziiii Melllloooooo!!!!!!!
