Carmelo isn't overrated as an offensively skilled player because he can single handedly take over games. But he is overrated in that it's hard to build a championship team around him because he doesn't really make his teammates better.

You basically have to surround him with other isolation-type players because he doesn't garner the type of attention defensively like a Lebron or a Durant, and he doesn't really make the correct basketball play when he does get that kind of attention.

I think everyone would agree on this as to their reason for listing him

I'm not responding to you, just in general...I think people have a hard time differentiating how talented a guy is with how good a player he is.

Carmelo is one of the most talented players in the league, but he's not one of the best, and he's definitely overrated IMO.
