All analytics means is sharing the ball, taking quality shots and playing defense. Basically what the Spurs have done the last 15 years.
Wanting Melo to "carry the scoring load" is a flawed thought process in itself. Why do you overrate shooting so much? Would you rather a Melo jab step, jab step- long two or an easy shot at the rim that resulted by passing and moving?
You can't want a team to be the Spurs without having 3 hall of famers. That's much more important than their ball movement.
Fine- how about Golden St?
Best point guard in the league/best shooter ever and a top 3 SG. All Star and Olympian swing man. Top defensive center. Try again?
sounds kinda similar to the 2013 Knicks...except of course they have Curry and we have Melo...
and since now Melo's teammates are such a concern why didnt he just go to Chicago, Dallas or Houston?
You are just off your rocker if you think any recent Knicks team was ever as talented as GS.
And I can name you 50 million why he didn't go.
Also, speaking of the Spurs and their system, guess what used to beat them routinely? The triangle and it's mid range jump shots.

Oh you mean Shaq could handle the Spurs? Wow what a shock. And no Golden St was one of the best teams of all time...however swap Curry for Anthony we probably take Miami to 7 and have a legit shot at a title...something we'll never have wth Carmelo hoisting and bricking.
I don't want him to carry the scoring load but if he can if need be. And of course I'd rather have him take efficient shots by passing and moving but it just so happens he's a great midrange shooter

So the 54 win Knicks weren't a great team?

He's not a great mid range shooter he just takes a lot of mid range shots. If he's going to take those types of shots he needs to hit them a lot more

That's not what he said. Don't play dumb
You put Chandler and a productive Kidd anywhere you'll win games.

True, but that team had its best run of the season with Tyson in street clothes and Kidd running on fumes.
And again, that's NOT what he was arguing
