T-Mac, Vince, Barkley, Paul, etc. never won. Was Melo ever a top 5 player for an extended period? I say no, so you can't really fault him for never winning. A lot of it is based on dependent variables around you.
There's a difference between faulting someone and realizing he can't be your top paid player and expect to win. Melo's built a career off of the belief that PPG correlates to winning, when there's zero correlation.
The team who scores the most points wins.
That's the only stat with 100% correlation.

TS% is not everything.
Doesn't DeAndre have the highest TS% of any player?

The team that maximizes their possessions the most wins the game. Why do you think the Warriors win so much? A missed shot is a lost possession. Not hard. The Knicks have an inefficient offense equating in lost possessions.
