http://amicohoops.net/carmelo-anthony-nba-rumors-cleveland-cavaliers-houston-rockets-nba-free-agency/

Despite some speculation, the Cavs are unlikely to include power forward Kevin Love in a trade for Anthony. Instead, previous discussions about Anthony have centered around Cavs bench players and possibly draft-and-stash prospect Cedi Osman, sources told Amico Hoops.


Frye + Shumpert + Osman + 2021 1st

Shump will likely opt out after next season to land a bigger deal given the new CBA. Frye is cheap and gone after next season. We get Osman and a 1st as the actual assets and no damage to our cap situation beginning next summer.


Does that work in the trade checker?

If it does sign me the f up...Cedi looks awesome and will fit right in with what we are trying to do.And I'm sure we could flip Frye and Shump for picks.

Yeah Cle would be a lottery team after Lebron goes so their picks are good (and only) value.

I read on another forum of someone coming up of a trade of melo to Cavs love to Utah and Knicks getting cap relief and young assets. Something like expiring deals Joe Johnson Boris Dias with Dante exam and rights to their 2017 1st rounder Donovan mitchell. I doubt this happens.

Denver just got a big TPE in this Gallanari deal.
Maybe Love to Nugs? with Melo to Cavs.

There's got to be a team out there that could use some Love.

Sources also indicated the Knicks are reluctant to pull the trigger on an Anthony blockbuster until a new president is hired. The Houston Chronicle reported no “active talks’’ between the Knicks and Rockets are taking place.

Would vastly prefer to not sign and trade for Rose as part of this but based on that report it appears there are some talks at least between your team and ours.

What are the other assets?
Monroe isnt an asset for anyone. We're rebuilding so its worthless for us.

3 way trade for Melo-Love makes sense but Knicks should get some assets for that trade.
I dont think we're desperately trying to trade him.


Well Monroe is an asset as a big ending contract at least.

And I could see the Bucks trading a future first if we are getting Love.

If we seriously want him we could put Brogdon or Jabari on the table too.

Otherwise Delly, Vaughn and Wilson could also be put in play in addition to future picks.

NY also gets Cedi Osman from CLE and 2018 OKC 1st from Minny.

Minny gets a future 2nd from NY.

Does Melo to 76ers trade make any sense for parties?

Knicks can get future Lakers 1st+filler.
76ers would get respected veteran scorer. They can use him at PF and some SF minutes.
For Melo
*Philly is close to NY, Baltimore I dont know what Melo wants but he will be close to his kids.
*Trade kicker should be nice for him.
*76ers can become a serious threat in very short time. (Like OKC making Finals)

Melo would NEVER take a trade to the Sixers. He wants guarantees that he's going to play meaningful basketball. That's why he mentioned Cleveland and Houston but the only real option is Cleveland. D'Antoni would rather cut his own balls off with a rusty knife than coach Melo, again...especially after he had to coach Marbury twice.

I can see Mills signing a veteran like Rondo and hope that makes Melo happy in order to mend fences post-Phil Jackson.

You really think there would have been ANY talks before D'Antoni was asked about it? The fact that Houston is even talking about it says MD is on board, rusty knife be damned.

Our whole summer hinges on this cat and mouse game. Teams expecting the Knicks to give Melo away is a joke. Melo wanting a buyout is a joke. Does he think any team will afford to add him in FA next year? That's a big risk. I would make him play a limited role and ride it out. It is on him and his friends teams to pony up or try to figure out something next year. When they are all another year older.

It's a joke how teams play the Knicks. DO NOT GIVE IN! Let GS win another one because as it stands...NO ONE is beating them. Cleveland needs to make something happen. Houston...make something happen. You're not getting him for free to help you try and win while we pay his salary. Nonsense.

You can't buy him out. You have to hold out hope he declines the PO if no team is willing to offer matching shorter money for him. Slim hope, Melo loves his money hut maybe he'll get antsy decline it and follow Le Flop and ring chase.

Phil- I want to trade Melo.

Knicks fire Phil.

Melo wants out.

Knicks prefer trade over buyout.

Knicks will wait to hire president before making trade.

We are ass backwards with everything.
