Ah so it's Melo's fucking around that has been holding him back all this time.

Someone tell the Knicks ASAP!

It's okay guys, Phil Jackson's mere presence enables people to stop fucking around and play serious all the time.

Let's not go too far. Melo is the only player in the league who can match Durant's ability to score at will, with Durant being perhaps a tick more efficient. His defense isn't as good, but it's not far enough off to be saying Melo can't sniff Durant.

And this is coming from a huge Durant fan and Melo hater.

People would be calling Melo a top 3 player if he were on a decent team and had a Wade/Westbrook

Melo is not close to Durant's ability to score. There are players that can score at a better clip than Melo, they just don't take as many shots as he does.

1.5 more shots per 36, scoring a tick fewer points per 36. Durant attempts more FTs per 36. Similar usage rate. That's pretty close.

Durant has way better play-making ability then Melo and overall hes better.

If you want to compare scoring, you should check points per possession or at the very least, efg% and TS%. Durant is far above league average while Melo is below in efg% using a ton of possessions. He actually looks pretty good in TS% due to his Free Throws, but is once again blown out of the water by Durant's 59.9% TS.

Like I said - it isn't close.

Just looked down at those further down the page. You're absolutely correct.

Actually you never know. Sometimes players hit their 30s and look like monsters some of the time. MJ, Hakeem and Dirk are pretty good examples iirc.

ETA: Then again this is Melo. Chances are super low he develops into an all around animal now.
