I wouldn`t necessarily judge Melo`s Denver perfomance on what he could do as a Piston. First of all, who would he have around him in a Piston uniform?
If Sheed is here and plays on the block and demands a double, what could that do for Melo? In Denver they never had that low post threat to open up the floor for Anthony. Not to mention Melo himself could draw a double and that leaves Stuckey room to operate.
Stuckey, Melo and Sheed could be a three headed monster that could be hard to deal with.
Now, the defense and rebounding from Melo needs to be addressed.
