they couldn't give him away without attaching 2 picks so....no, probably not


I can see Portland turning two bad contracts into 1. Anderson for Harkless and Leonard. We like Harkless so in our eyes it would only be 1 bad contract at 10 mil per.

I want to trade melo, but he should have value. He was an allstar and can score. Even stretch 4s have value. I am not expecting a lot but have to get something....even just 1 future pick or something


The only team that's apparently willing to play ball is Houston and they're not going to give you more than Anderson...it's not like there's a ton of value out there that's realistic considering how massive his contract is when you include the kicker


His contract is not even that bad. We are paying Timmy and Noah more combined....melo is most likely expiring.

His value is mostly low because of how we handled everything...again, not expecting a lot, but have to throw a few crumbs our way...else just let him expire. Have to at least make teams think we will keep him anyway... most importantly didn't trade him for bad contracts only just to get rid of him

His contract isn't bad?! He's due like 60 million if he doesn't wave the kicker

Just in case anybody is wondering, CBS sports app just sent a notification that the Knicks have renewed talks over Melo with the Rockets. At 3:19 this afternoon. Very helpful app. (Going to turn off their notifications, just a waste). Even fake Sham posted sooner than CBS.

It sounds good in theory but let's we need a few vets sprinkled in. They may be going young and maybe even somewhat rebuild but they aren't trying to lose games.

ESPN is doing a lot more now with Woj, so that's really quick. I'll try Yahoo, as they still have (the real) Shams. Bleacher report has a bunch of kids, but Howard Beck may be worthwhile.

Nothing has changed. Nothing will change.
No one wants Anderson.
Cavs are offering shump,frye, and filler.

Melo is going to have to play to increase his trade value or end up as a Knick for the next two seasons.

Baptism by fire. I'm down for it and its not like this kid isn't a professional. He was playing pro at 15 and even helped his under-16 Junior French national team to a championship and then again in 2016 winning it again for his FIBA Europe under-18 team. I'd say roll the dice and have him start from jump. Besides, they say he's incredibly smart and picks up things quick.

Bleacher report has the feature where u can check off what you want to be sent to your phone. I pretty much have all Nba rumors all things Knicks coming to my phone. It's almost as fast if not faster than real gm. As soon as it happens I get an alert.
