* Melo might not be available
* His TS% is truly ELITE
* Can move without the ball, consistently has a +Off/Def. Rating
* Just as injury prone as Monta Ellis, say for example (who might be another candidate if not Melo), but turns the ball over way less, and still scores almost as many point while taking 5 less shots per game...
