Watching Melo makes me smile, kid absolutely earned his spot in the NBA and he's so comfortable being there. To ball like this against the elite is insane.

What I like about his playing is a) stealing/blocking ability - he has fingertips like a gecko b) he's not greedy with the ball, some of the passes are just better options, some are just flashy, but he looks at passes as valuable as points. I'll take his 3D ball playing over the 3-point ball game any day.
