i don't think anybody did close out well on the 3s - but, at least with melo, you're not supposed to.
much rather he be chucking 3 pointers than driving the ball to the rim (even if he did a fair amount of that as well).
melo is a career 31% 3 pt shooter (slightly better than that this year) - he would be a much better player if he removed that aspect of his game (save for the wide open shots in rhythm) and focused on the things he did well.
