Melo wanted the sign and trade. He wasn't going into the new cba without it. He said he'd go to BK if we didn't want him. He leveraged that Denver would end up with nothing for him and thereby forced the trade. Using BK to this end forced us to up loose more assets then we had to. In fact if he really cared about winning in NY he would have signed as a free agent period. Had he not taken the extra year from Denver on his extension he could have avoided the whole mess.
Don't even try that ish lol
A player can't force a trade
A player can refuse a trade
Melo would of forced the trade to HOU already if he could. He can't, so it didn't happen.
It's up to the FO to decide what they do. Blame them
a player can say they are not willing to extend with the team they are being traded to.
FO gets their fair share of blame as well
Yeah but that's still on the FO to deal them. Like it was for IND with PG & MIN with KLove.
We gave up a good package. I don't think anyone was complaining when Gallo and WC were missing 400 games combined since the trade. Also, I believe we'd have to renounce WC to even sign Melo to the max.
