Message: [QUOTE="Knicks411, post: 132501, member: 767"] It just doesn't seem to be much of a distinction, because over the course of the season, Durant scores both more often and more efficiently. So what does it matter that Melo is the better scorer, if it doesn't manifest itself into either greater volume or efficiency? (Btw, Durant's offensive rebounding is shockingly low for a guy his size) It's possible Melo having so many ways to score hurts him. Maybe he should focus more on his most efficient ways of scoring. It seems odd to me to say that a guy is a better scorer; what does he do better? Does he score more points? Does he shoot a higher percentage? What does it matter then? Maybe Durant has a higher standard deviation in his scoring? IE, because he's say, more reliant on his jumper, that he is more likely to have a bad game? Not sure how true that is. [/QUOTE]
