IT>Melo is absolutely a fair take — and honestly, Knicks fans won’t like it, but that’s nothing new.
IT in 2017 matched Melo’s scoring and did it with way better efficiency and actual playmaking instead of endless jab‑steps. He dragged Boston to a #1 seed and an ECF run as the entire offensive engine, finishing top‑5 in MVP voting.
Meanwhile Melo… couldn’t even sniff past the 2nd round in New York. Great scorer, sure — but IT’s peak was just flat‑out better and actually led to winning, which the Knicks wouldn’t recognize if it walked into MSG wearing a neon sign!
The video starts with teams with best superstar lineage, and they proceed to defend Thomas over melo. We’re calling players with one good season superstars now 💀💀
