So what your saying is he is well coached?

I hope you know that AA has always been that type of player. He didn't suddenly transform into the talent that he is because of our oach.

Don't recall that from his previous stints in his career, either that or I didn't notice.

he has always been efficient in the mid range but nowhere near his numbers this year.

That's what Phil Jackson is counting on: that that kind of development is possible . . .

System scorer, that feels right to me.

That sums it. This system allows him to do his thing within the flow of the offense. Melo seems to have clicked too the last 2 games. Gotta keep it rolling and get some consistency. Can't really know what to do next without it

Best case scenario: he's made for the Triangle system (both skill-wise and psychologically) and he'll be able to sustain his shooting.

perhaps ... and if we see that this sticks then we know its the triangle. I predict that he will come back to earth but lets see. I would love to see some data how the triangle increases efficiency from certain areas of the court.
