Tim Bontemps (WaPo) on how the Melo-in-OKC experiment wasn’t a mistake: “In the aftermath of Carmelo Anthony’s brief but eventful tenure in Oklahoma City, which ended last week when he was traded to the Atlanta Hawks, it was easy to dismiss his time there as nothing short of a disaster. That point of view is understandable. Anthony’s production this past season dipped to its lowest point since his rookie year, and he proved unable to replicate his “Olympic Melo” persona from his highly successful stints with Team USA. He openly chafed at the thought of coming off the bench despite the fact that, had he done so, the Thunder likely would have been better off.
