Doesn't it lend some validity to the questions people have posted about whether Melo is worth the price that is being asked? because it proves how worthless this chart really is in determining a player's value... why would you take pause to consider Melo's value based on this useless chart & not do the same for the players i mentioned? or any other player on this list for that matter? using this logic, Gallo's #149 ranking would make him pretty much worthless as an NBA player.

Doesn't it lend some validity to the questions people have posted about whether Melo is worth the price that is being asked? there's not just 1 anomaly there dude... take a look at the list & you'll see a whole bunch of anomalies that make this chart worthless http://arturogalletti.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/untitled37.png check out where players like Dirk Nowitzki ranks in comparison to Troy Murphy... take a look where Amare ranks in respect to David Lee & Chris Bosh... Russell Westbrook is #66 on the list compared to Matt Barnes at #36... i can go on & on & on... this list is ridiculously skewed... i can't even believe you are using this to try & formulate any kind of conclusion whatsoever in regards to Melo's value as an NBA player... i thought u were better than that.

Doesn't it lend some validity to the questions people have posted about whether Melo is worth the price that is being asked? I'm not. I've stated about 5 times in the thread that I don't understand the stat itself. Perhaps you can explain it to me. Official sponsor of the PURE KNICKS LOVE Program

![]() What is the rank. I'm not sure how they ordered the list. I was looking at the wins produced number because that was what the initial article used, and the rank of the players is not determined by that number.

Doesn't it lend some validity to the questions people have posted about whether Melo is worth the price that is being asked? i don't understand it either, because it makes absolutely no sense to me to see guys like Matt Barnes ranked ahead of Dirk Nowitzki... i seemed to have failed economics in school... never figured that would come back to haunt me later in life but maybe Professor Berri can explain to us why any of us should even try to understand his earth shattering statistics?
