The addition of Melo may put the Oklahoma City Thunder over the top in the division. Having said that, we still need to see how he will perform alongside two other bona fide All-Stars.

On a strictly individual performance level, Melo is still one of the premier scorers in the league. If his first-half performance against the Houston Rockets this preseason is any indication, Carmelo will fit in nicely.

Just imagine what this team could be if Melo were allowed to sport a hooded jersey?

While there might be a laundry list of question marks surrounding his move, there is no denying Anthony’s ability to put up points.
