    Melo’s been my favorite Laker to watch thus far.

    37 minutes seems like a bad idea, but hard to argue with results.

    This dude is carrying the team off the bench.. we'd be well under .500 without his lights out shooting @ home. Big props to Melo he's a beast still.

    It's really too bad nobody can draw up some plays and get him some decent looks in the 4th/end of games.

    His defense is so so, more than I expected from him that's for sure. He's really hungry for a championship.

    Melo is the 3rd best Laker this season. Without him, I don't think we win many games, regardless of who the opponent is. What a beast! Developed into one of the premiere 3-point shooters in the league at the end of his career.

    Melo has been awesome and continues to step up for us. Another great game for him.

    Unlike most, he loves playing underneath the bright lights.

    Hopefully, we can keep getting positive production out of him.

    This makes me wish so hard that we could have gotten him back in Kobe/Pau days...

    Melo looks great, he has found a comfort zone here. The crowd loves him and he feeds off of that energy. This Ja Morant tweet is perfect;

    I'll just add that Melo is my favorite Laker this season, and I think Bron agrees - look at my new sig.

    Melo seems like he can't miss in Staples...

    every game, he is like 7 of 10 from downtown...How the heck did he become a deadly 3 point shooter?

    Without him, we would be like 2-9 or 1-10. Fact. Every time he came up big, we won and he came up big many times already. Unfathomable.

    His worst shooting 3pt% at home has been 50%. His worst.


    Wish Kobe could've seen him play this year. I can see him joining in on the 3 to the dome celebration while sitting courtside.

    Melo has broken the shooting curse in LA.
