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.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
