Message: [QUOTE="two3zone, post: 1986285, member: 3651"] Again, totally agree, but for some reason I put Melo above and beyond a lot of our centers, recent and old. The improvement he made between his Fresh and Soph years was something you don't see often, even in our program. I think he could have had a Rak season even as a second year player, we just didn't need him to. He showed off a mid range game, athleticism, played well above the rim and his awareness was night and day. I don't know what it was with Fab, whether he just needed to get in better shape, or who knows, maybe Bernie Fine did have the magic touch with him, "no pun intended for obvious reasons". If Fab stayed another year, I seriously think he could have gotten player of the year consideration. [/QUOTE]
