As JVG stated, "he is an excellent passer"

If he could average 1 more assist per game that would really make him great. I hope to see that next year.

Will Landry shoot better? Will Tyson get lasik surgery and daily hand massages to get softer hands? No but on the real Melody really could do better and needs to instill confidence in his teammates Ans trust them more.

For one thing Tyson has great hands and it's not his fault that after Lin went down he really didn't get good passes.

If you make good timely passes guys will hit more shots, also you can hit those guys when they slash or cut towards the basket which Melo doesn't do enough of, cuz he wants to take the shot all the time. Melo thinks that those cuts are only to clear out so he can shoot it. once in a while he'll make the pass and you think why doesn't he do that more often, cuz he'd avg 6 assists a game if he did.

Melo averaged 3.7 assists this year which was fourth at his position behind Lebron, PP and Iggy. How is that a "bad passer"?

He would have had more if he played with a PG and/or a SG that can actually shoot.

I hope to see him average 4.5 next year with him looking more and the shooters being better.

This whole discussion is ridiculous. On the Year, Tyson has caught and converted or drawn the foul on more passes than he's missed. Often the pass is not delivered in the best way to get it to him and I think that has led to many of his missed catches. It certainly doesn't have anything to do with his shooting, which is an entirely different matter. Stop making low bounce passes in traffic with the wrong angle on them and he'll catch even more of them.

You can blame bounce passes or blame anything that makes you feel better - his hands are not good. He fumbles way to many passes. He is good at catching alley oops though.

How sad that he is so limited offensively.

Hopefully next year he will work on his game and not be a no show in the playoffs.

GREAT DEFENDER AND LEADER
