a lot of times, he doesn't get those types of calls, so he doesn't go into the pain. Additionally, BK's shot the ball going up and had a high release point which made him so hard to guard, so he get the shot of even if he didn't create space for himself...but pre-knee injury, he had an amazing first step too, so all that together made him deadly. Personally, I think his prime is better than Melo's, but that isn't a knock on Melo. Melo has continued to improve and I think he will eventually surpass King.
