He’s actually had a better than average season from 3, percentage wise and has made a career high in 3’s.

Problem is for a guy whose role is almost solely to be a spot up shooter from 3, he hasn’t been that great at it.  34-36% from 3 is fine...when you’re putting up 25, 7, and 3 and drawing doubles.  But when you’re the spot up guy, 38-40% would be ideal.  I do think Melo has the stroke for that, but he hasn’t done it.

It is a new role for him and that team’s offense is absolutely horrific.  Has been since KD was there.  There is just absolutely no flow to anything they do.  I don’t know who deserves more blame, Russ or Billy D.  It’s give the ball to the super athletic maniac, and whatever happens, happens.  No real plan.  It’s tough to play in a “system” like that - for everyone else.  PG is nuts if he doesn’t bounce.

Should be pointed out that as poorly as Melo has shot the ball this series...he’s still shooting the ball better than Westbrook.  5 turnovers per game for Russ too.  Your reigning MVP.
