these guys seem to be playing pretty well together, but my concern is this:every time i look at the box score, melo has taken way more shots than ai but ai has just as many or more points than him(not to mention a more impressive stat line otherwise).
i know that melo is concerned that the nuggets remain "his team", but come on...
i'll even go so far as to say this- melo isn't shit compared to ai.
there. i said it.
am i the only one that thinks melo's insistance on the nuggets being "his team" is just setting them all up for disaster?
i heard him talking about it the other day and he sounded like a child talking about HIS team, HIS shots, HIS points, etc.
seriously, i know he's really talented, but at some point doesnt the maturity level kick in and sabotage childish players?

I agree AI is better. However, even before Melo came back, AI was always sayin this was Melo's team, and that he wants Melo to win scoring title.
I think the team plan and AI's plan, is for AI to be the one that makes everything happen, including melos 30+ points. That's one of the reason's AI's assist are up so much. That, and he actually has teammates that can shoot; also, the run and gun system they got generates a lot more points.
I've noticed AI's better percentage too. I am hoping melo is just rusty so far or something. Or, still adjusting to having an amazing stud on his team.
I'm not a really a Melo fan, but i'm a huge AI fan, and that is why i want Melo to play beter.
Melo has always come off as a man-child to me too. He's 22 years old now. Some of the more childish nba players don't really get a good head on their shoulders until they are 30. Some of them never. AI doesn't have that much time, so Melo better wise up
