Your funny and must be a psychologist because you know Melo's ego so well. I bring up his NCAA title as a frosh because that tells me he can play in a team concept because college hoops is more of a team game. Durant's "teams" got shot out in college. I saw Durant play in college against my Mizzou Tigers and Durant got his points while Texas got shot out. Jordan lead the Tarheels to a chip as a frosh, Magic/Bird played in NCAA Championships now. Are getting this???? All those guys had to play in team concepts and accept coaching. Lebitch took the easy way out skipping college, and had to stack the deck with the help of the traitor slime Pat Riley to finally win a Chip.
Jim .... I understand where u comin from .. Melo was an outstanding scorer at age 18, in Syracuse Melo was force to play an
up-tempo & half-set rotation system in coach Boe offense/defense scheme.
The last time Melo was force to play a transition-system was his rookie season, and Melo?s first season with teammate Chauncey Billups.
Our team flaws
We were the number-one team for low inside-scoring points.
Melo didn?t score inside much, which is why his % was low, which made the team % low, b/c Melo?s shot attempts were extra-high.
U say a whole lot of subjective stuff about melo that no one knows or can prove. He,"challenged" people. Really? How do u know that? Since when did he challenge amare? A.i.? Ai was better then him at the time so wouldn't have been the other way around? Billups? K mart? If he challenged k mart why did he choose to play with him again. You are losing your status because of this subjective, empty and misplaced melo hate.

What type a system did we run throughout the 2012-13 season?
Did Melo push the ball to run an up-tempo transition-system? NO!
K-Mart, Amare, and Iverson became super-stars at playing an up-tempo transition system for Nets / Suns / 76ers.
Did Melo run when Iverson pushed the ball? NO!
Iverson always had to go 1 on 1 or 1 on 2 in a fastbreak on Nuggets.
Billups defensive leadership at the point made Billups a superstar (MVP).
Did Melo give us 25 minutes of defense per game? NO!
When a star-player don?t play to his 2[SUP]nd[/SUP] option star teammate best talent, why should u imagine the 2[SUP]nd[/SUP] star-teammate are going to keep complimenting the star players best talent.
If the star-tandem of .. Kobe & Gasol, or KG & Pierce, or Lebron & Wade didn?t workout it would be called a
CHALLENGE?
