I was too young to see Ewing without ice packs attached to his knees. Melo hitting those game winners Easter Sunday were awesome. His 62 was awesome.

Going forward Melo really doesn't have a role on this team and if we want to get bang for our investment in Hardaway, this move needs to happen. Damn shame we never really got to see what Melo/Amar'e could've been.


I'm worried about the return...

And if we get "Glen Rice" back, this time just let dude expire.

I believe it. Knicks had a chance to tank hard dealing Melo because him leaving is a big talent hit, but they had to go and overpay a guy to bring them 5 wins they don't need. Knicksy.

why are you guys so worried about what we get back? we have Steve "Yes Mr. Dolan, anything you say Mr. Dolan" Mills running the show, we'll be fine.

Best fuqing side kick we gave him was Tyson Chandler but Melo is the cancer?

Best damn PG we gave him was literally Jason Kidds last year, but he's the cancer?

You guys deserve Dolan and Mills and Isaiah.

We traded an entire starting lineup for him and maxed him out what do you expect

East is bad dude. We weren't going to out tank teams like Atlanta and Chicago. And then in the West there are some serious tank commanders, so may as well shoot for the playoffs and work on KP's playoff film. Who knows? Maybe some of the junk we get will become assets next season.

It is. This contracts we took on started the trend. We really didn't stop spending over the cap, taking on unwanted deals and trading away picks until Donnie Walsh took over.

Why worry? It's going to be underwhelming. Fans will compare what we gave up for Melo vs what we got for Melo. Fans will continue to complain that we didn't pick Smith in the draft, we will take on some sort of salary in which we will complain about.

Preseason basketball will get here, Frank will turnover the ball in a meaningless game and doom and gloom will fall upon the board. Season will get here, we will win a game and the fans will think we will be a championship team and then we will lose a game and the Porter JR bandwagon will be in full steam.

You already know how this season will go...
Jazz: Under reconstruction, we'll be back.

You got jokes huh?

You let me know when we get a player like him that actually wants to be here.

He played here alone. 6 fuqing years and the best we came up with was Tyson fuqing Chandler?

I think a case can be made that letting Riley go was the original inflection point
