40 dunk is the minimum. I know this because that's the rating Jrue Holiday has. Jrue Holiday is capable of dunking on the fastbreak in 2k12. And he only has a 61 vert to boot.

As a matter of fact, go test it out for yourself and get back at me.

Regardless of that, dude can play ball. SG3/Tapatalk 2

It all depends on what one considers "ELITE". Do I think Melo is one of the top 15 players currently in the NBA? Sure. Do I think Melo is on the level with all-time players such as Jordan, Bird, Magic, etc? Not even close. I would not put Melo on a list of the top 50 players of all-time, but he is still a great player. Elite? In my mind, I put him in the 2nd tier of current superstars. He's just not quite on the level of LeBron, Wade, Durant, Paul, Howard, etc.

I agree in saying he shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as Bird, Magic and many others, but in the context of relevant NBA stars, he is worthy of a nod. Just as Kobe still is. Which was my point in my original post.

I don't have to like him to know he is a game changer.
