I should respect a player who
1. Whines about not being an all star. Calls out coaches who didint pick him and disses the best sf in the game, AK47, who rightfully made it
2. Whines about not being picked to the Olympic team. They were going to pick Redd, but after his "Dont nothing include Melo" tantrum, he got picked on the team. Way to go, Melo
3. Whines about not getting the ball enough in one game, and quits on his team. Face it, it happened. I know only once, but I dont give young players free passes in instances like that
I respect what he does on the court, hes a great scorer, but off the court he may be the most arrogant and disrespectful player in the league, as a rookie. I defintly dont respect that.
Also I think Wade will be better than him.
Me hating his attitude and me thinking Wade will be better doesnt mean i hate him because im just a jealous heat fan. No, im just a fan with an opinion. Im allowed to hate a player who calls out other players and teammates, who whines and disses other players in the media. It has nothing to do with jealousy or me knowing Carmelo is better, because I think otherwise. Plain and simple.

One of only seven players in NBA history to average 25 points, 8 rebounds, and 6 assists while shooting 50% or more from the field in a playoff series (the others are Bob Cousy, Oscar Robertson, Wilt Chamberlain, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, and Michael Jordan). Wade accomplished this in two consecutive series in the 2005 playoffs.

3. Holds the record for being the only player in NBA history to ever average at least 30 points on 69.5 field goal percentage for four consecutive NBA playoff series games (5/23/06-5/29/06).
