2520938, I'm just glad you confirmed his fake injury 2 months later #trapped

Actually, his ego might have been injured but last I checked his ankle injury occurred on Jan 12th which was BEFORE either match ups against Kawhi.

Again,

On the season against the Spurs while primarily being defended by Kawhi:

Gm 1-11/2: 4/17 (Previous game vs. Otto: 11-18, season-high 37 pts)
Gm 2-1/8: 5-15 (Previous game vs. Deng: 9-12 (season best shooting %), 25 pts)

No shame on Melo, Kawhi has been stifling every wingplayer he has faced all season long: http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2015/11/3/9664178/kawhi-leonard-highlights-spurs-knicks-carmelo-anthony

Kawhi has a much lower usage rate than any of the top SFs & plays in a system which isn't conducive to putting up big numbers (look no further than LMA who's putting up Thad Young numbers) but yet he still has an elite Win-share.

Melo has been the 5th best SF by every metric & hasn't been that much more valuable than Gordon Hayward. CRY!
