They played well together over the Woody games because Woody will feature them both. The problem was that neither had their shot going but hopefully they both will be working from now on.
They can definitely play ok together or even "well" at times but my point was/is, can it work overall and flourish ...
Yes, Early in the season Melo was going but STAT was slow and his shot was not falling. Then StAT got it going but Melo shot went bye bye but Melo improved his all around game and was throwing dimes left and right. It is all about knocking down shots. Their shot selection have been great with Woody. They are not forcing issues they are just letting the game come to them. It was not like they were not getting open 15 footers or layups, they were missing shots they normally made. Also, the feature of the double high post is perfect for Melo, STAT, and Lin. That set should be a beast for them because each player has the capabilities to make the jumper or taked their man of the dribble. Plus they are willing passers.
