Message: [QUOTE="CuseTG2003, post: 2581930, member: 1732"] I didn't realize they turned over the roster that much so I take back my comment about Melo single-handedly turning that team around. He def had help. Great research on your part. One thing I often wonder is did winning a NC maybe hurt Melo a little? I've romanticized his time at 'Cuse so much that I think he was the greatest player ever that one year. He just did so many things to help that team win. He then went to the NBA, was asked to do too much, and seemed to fall in love w/ the sexier aspects of the game. His effort on D and the boards has been very disappointing and lacking his entire career. Was it too much too soon and/or was he just asked to carry too much of a load offensively to the detriment of other aspects of his game? [/QUOTE]
