RE: 9/25 ESPN INSIDER - Carmelo to outshine LeBron ?
I don't think either player will be rookie of the year, but Carmelo will have the better year.
Last year, when Lebron played, he was the tallest and biggest person on the floor. He will not only have to learn how to shoot, but he will have to learn how to take punishment in the post, getting a shot blocked by a 7 footer, play over twice as many games as he normally does. And since he's on the Cavaliers, he'll need to learn how to accept a lot of bad calls.

I hold her close until she's gone. I'll never know what she was running from. I'll cash her check in the morning.
