    can't conclude anything from videos like this. He didn't look any different in last year's work out video.

    He looks more explosive trust me. Doesn't mean it will translate to the season but he's definitely put in work in the weight room.

    I wanted to be impressed, but he looked better in the Harden CP pickup game that everyone has posted 2000 times.

    He's playing against two guys naturally faster than him lol. And he's getting what he wants still.

    K. I've been positive about Melo so far. Don't make enemies out of your allies!

    A big softie. Homie couldve banged on the 6'2 guy all day instead he opted for falling contested fadeaway 2's. That defense is worse than Gerald Greens.

    That'll teach all of you who said Melo wouldn't work out.

    2 dribble maximum, defense knows this so they're trying to force you into those shots. If you don't get the blow by on that first dribble the 2nd has to be to set up the jumper.

    Have any of you ever actually played basketball at a competitive level before? Just curious.

    Imagine how many Thunder fans got erections by just watching this video over and over during the last summer.

    To slow to drive to the basket but he is being guarded by a smaller, faster player and he doesn’t look to be trying to drive into his chest hard like in a game. Probably working on his quickness with smaller defenders.
