Oklahoma City forward Carmelo Anthony is setting career lows in scoring, shooting and efficiency this season. Expectations were set astronomically high when Oklahoma City Thunder General Manager Sam Presti launched blockbuster deals over the summer to obtain Carmelo Anthony and Paul George. That said, it would be in Oklahoma City’s best interest to consider bringing Anthony off the pine. Anthony has cultivated a career out of needing to have the ball in his hands, which isn’t tenable with Westbrook running the show. And since Anthony isn’t a knockdown perimeter shooter, he mostly idles while Westbrook runs the offense.
