And for the record, I've never thought you were dangerous, dk7th.
A bit fixated perhaps, but hey, as your new patron defense attorney can attest, you serve a purpose here.
You make us homers cheer all the more for our favorite soul-less, greedy, dopey jumpshooting douche bag. 
And his 15 selfish, heroball assists in the last two games. 
those weren't real assists
huh?
They are the "cover up" type
Like a crime offender who goes and robs a family
When they are away on vacation, while in the home pillaging
He realizes as he looks around, they are on a leave because
There has been a recent death in the family
So with the Family jewels and heirlooms in hand getting into the getaway vehicle
He decides to make a phone call[from a newly activated iphone 6 left behind by a family member]
He phones Piccolo's Florist and places an order for
3 dozen roses, tulips, and 3 bushels of lilacs to be delivered
Expressing anonymous half-hearted condolences
5 days after his grand larceny home invasion, when he expects the family to be back
Why pay attention to the major offense, because he demonstrated human compassion
thats just plain silly. don't lose credibility for valid critiques with posts like this.
what we'd like to see is him getting 8 assists even if his shot is relatively on. He should not just pass because his shot has zero chance of going in.
He had many nice passes that his initial intention was to pass, not just "all the doors are closed" passes.
You make a lot of valid points in your posts generally but this is straight ridiculous. Come on, man.
Never been a huge Melo fan but it seems as if he's passing more this season. Let's see if he keeps it up all year. IF the guy were to average 4 or more assists, Id be pretty happy.
No what I said is spot on
Let's break Carmelo's assists* down in categories
- Phantom Assist
- Regular Assist
- Hockey Assist
- Suicide Assist
- I'm Team Playing Assist
- All The Doors Are Closed Assist
*Denotes Assist are usually tied his shooting performances
- Phantom Assist
Usually occur when he's on fire, NBA Jam mode no volume around 0-1
Not looking to pass at all a hired desert eagle absolute high usage
Shooting 47-60%[16-33fg or 18-30fg]
- Regular Assist
Usually take place in the flow of the game, never high volume though
Around the 2-4 range and coincide with average shooting usage 12-16FGA/gm
Shooting around 42-48%[5-12fg or 7-15fg]
- Hockey Assist
Usually take place when all other teammates are on, or contributing
Towards a team win while he struggled or didn't play well throughout, average usage
Shooting around 30-40%[6-18fg or 6-16fg]
- Suicide Assist
Usually his bread and butter type, these happen in almost any given situation
More prevalent when he's engaged and the defense is staunch, immersed in the mano-a-mano comp
With the defense being stingy and his crave to jackup shots
Chews up the clock on several possessions clamped down
He'll decide to pass the grenade to teammates make or miss with high usage
Shooting around 35-45%[9-23fg or 13-28fg]
- I'm Team Playing Assist
Usually happens after he's had a bad stretch of games, the media kind of
Coming down on his play if he's not trusting teammates trying to do too much
Turning down shots, trying to play some point forward, low usage
Shooting around 38-46%[4-11fg or 6-13fg]
Last But Not Least
- All The Doors Are Closed Assist A.K.A. Cover Up
Usually takes place when he plays worst than maggots chitting on cow dung
Team is getting blown out, played a major reason throwing team out of sink
But knowing the boxscores are a measuring stick to expose, gotta look good somewhere must get stats elsewhere
Around 6 or more, while playing against inferior competition with high usage
Shooting around 20-30%[5-23fg or 9-28fg]
