Melo is well on track to be the NBA rookie of the year.  Here is where he currently stands

He currently leads all NBA rookies for total points, rebounds, assists, steals, double-doubles, triple-doubles and player efficiency rating (source: ESPN).

post of the month.

 

also,  ESPN's lead story on their front page is about LaMelo.   It's behind their paywall, but it says "This is more than we could have expected from LaMelo Ball.  our experts dive into Ball's game and what comes next for the standout rookie."

Now that he's starting, I think he'll put up stats that will make him the runaway winner of ROY.

LaMelo's going to win this--Wiseman got benched as Melo got pushed into the starting lineup, and Edwards is getting totally ignored on one of the saddest teams in basketball. LaMelo just went through his national media hype cycle, so even if Ant or Wiseman starts to get some attention later in the year, Melo's numbers are just going to be too great to overcome.

First rookie in four decades to lead all rookies in points, assists, and rebounds

First Things First (@FTFonFS1) Tweeted:
Has LaMelo exceeded expectations during his Rookie of the Year campaign?

"He has a chance to be just the 2nd rookie in at least the last 40 years to lead all rookies in points, rebounds & assists. Right now, he leads all rookies in everything." — @getnickwright https://t.co/TaJFiRjXzZ

Lamelo’s impact on this team cannot be really calculated.  Totally different squad.  I saw Biz with a no look pass to Bridges for the dunk last night.  He has made everyone better.  Can we sign him to a 20 year deal?  He is a special, special player.

Malik is a CORE guy right now.  Sign him immediately to a long term deal.  Those two are the future.

Man, it is an amazingly brutal fact that this franchises fans have not been able to see this team in person.  The new Hive would have been so sweet.  Future season ticket holder incoming 

It’s a travesty I can’t even watch most games on TV in Charlotte.

      Hubbard says he might have rushed back

      By cranky · Posted

      The best part is they compliment each other. Chuba is a more patient runner, patiently waiting for gaps to form while Rico is more explosive. I wish they would use Rico more like McCaffery was used - getting him the ball in space to take advantage of his explosivness and violence. Then have Chuba pound the middle for the tough yards.

      I loved those late 90s-early 2000s Miami teams.  If McGahee hadn’t had that injury, he would probably have been a Top 10 all-time rusher, no doubt in my mind.  The fact he didn’t lose his leg below the knee is still a miracle.  And the fact he came back from that, made it in the NFL, and still carved out a career that included over 8k yards rushing and two pro bowls is damn impressive.  It just demonstrates how good he would have been had he never had the injury.  Prior to that, he was like nothing I had ever seen.  Like a bigger, more physical and elusive Reggie Bush.

      Boozer may end up going higher in the draft, but agree about Caleb Wilson. Give me that dude, think he's going to translate very well and has the attitude I want on a young team.  My perfect world as of now... Trade anything not bolted down as far as vet's go. Sexton is on an expiring and would be an easy flip. Bridges, just get him somewhere else. One year left on a low $20 mil deal should be an easy trade...but the apron for many teams could haunt us.  LaMelo is the issue. Likely would have to trade our problem to someone else for their problem (Ja, Zion, Zach Lavine) to make contracts somewhat match up.  I want to build around last year's draft class, get as many bites at this draft class as possible, etc. If we get lucky and get #1 or #2, wonderful. If not, get into the top 5 or so and grab Caleb Wilson.
