I have to say , Melo seems to be getting the timming of his jumps better. Some of his put back dunks off the rim were nicely done and he was running the court well for a big man. Celtics have already begain to mold him .
He was practicing on 6'6" or 6'8" guys last night. But practice is practice, gotta start small and work his way up . He looked great and would be dominating presence in college had he stayed.
I like the fact , Melo is trying to build at least a little offensive game , not just be a shotblocker or another Hollins.
As for Defending and scoring on guys like Hilbert, Gasols, Lopezs, Howard ect ....he has a LONG road to travel .
I'm hoping he can hang around and become a nice 2 nd string bench center in maybe another year. He has good energy , attitude and is coachable.
If he has several more games in row with this production , gotta think it will raise Danny's eyebrow.
