Melo is leading the USA team this year.
Let's see if he can bring it in the regular season too.

He usually has monster seasons following the Olympics, so history bolds well for us.
Are you sure, he's been to the Olympics twice and both seasons his numbers were down? Points, Rebounds were down. Big drop in FG% following the 2008 Games.
Going further down the line, 2 seasons after the Games, PPG jumped nearly 6 points from the previous season.
Only 6 ppg? Thats quite a bit of a jump for a career 20+ ppg scorer. He went to the WCF the season following the 08 olympics
Yep 2 seasons following the Olympics in 05-06 he went from 20 to 26 then again in 09-10 he went from 22 to 28. His individual numbers jumped 2 years after the Olympics.
Point being.. 6 ppg added on to 20 ppg is pretty damn good. Give me his WCF 08-09 campaign> any other season in his career.
James Harden gettin blown up!
