I will cut/paste my Carmelo Anthony thing again:
Carmelo Anthony before this year. A team full of him on offense wouldn't be that good, because they all need the ball in their hands to be effective. Carmelo Anthony is the type of player i'm reffering to that needs the ball in his hands to be effective.
Once he is off the ball (doesn't have the ball in his hands) his value drops a ton because he can't shoot a 3.
Now a team with say 3 Carmelo Anthony's and 8 Shane Battiers (a very good off the ball player) would do better than a team of 11 Carmelo Anthony's. That is my whole point, there is 2 type of offense, on the ball and off the ball offense and players are better at one or another (and some are very good/great at both).
Now Carmelo is obviously "better" than Battier is, but a team of 11 Carmelo Anthony's is not better than a team of 3 Carmelo Anthony's and 8 Shane Battiers
