I figured if everyone promoted their star player than I probably should state my case for Melo as well ;D To be honest he's the 2nd best SF in the league after Lebron James, and he's definitely a scoring threat whenever he's on the court. I'm not gonna use stats like everyone else because stats can be deceiving somewhat. So I'll just leave it at that and hopefully the 2nd best Small Forward in the league gets a increase

The thing is, I think statistically he's okay where he is. I agree he's 2nd best SF, but he's mostly offense and not so much defense. A bit more of the latter will push him over 90.

I'd like to bring up the case for Melo once again.
The guy has been sick this year and is leading the league in ppg and he is doing it at a healthy rate, shooting .479 and .365 from the three. Has improved his rebounding and is the leader of Denver Nuggets alongside Chauncey Billups.
Defense has improved, definitely, so I'd say he deserves to be higher than he currently is. Kobe is a 96 Lebron a 96 Wade a 93 heck, Elton Brand is 90

I agree, I think it seems a little stupid that Melo's an 89. I'd say a 91.

BOS your selling Melo short a little, his defense has improved A LOT in the last 2 years, after his Olympic experience with KB and Kidd (who are known as 2 of the best defenders in their respective position), and the addition of Billups Melo has become a much better leader and defender on his team.
He learned a lot about defense the last 2 years and became much better at that.
