Morey wouldn't do unprotected picks knowing CP3 and Melo could split to join LeBron somewhere.

But we could probably find a team to take on R.Anderson if we gave them one of the 1st round picks to do it.

We all want to trade Carmelo. You seem like you want to give in easily. Thank God you're not the gm.

We can easily ship him off next summer when there are only 2 years left on the deal, especially if we attach one of those picks that we get from the Rockets - we could even top 10 protect the Houston pick and say that the trade partner will receive the worst of our 2 1st round 2020 picks (ours and Houston's)

No on Anderson under any circumstance. Hope we can get Love for Melo so we can flip that bitch. If not, let melo opt out at the end of the year and let him and CP3 figure out where they want to go

F N 11 · Post #311 » by **F N 11** » Tue Jul 18, 2017 8:54 pm

Yall kill me. Im the biggest Melo critic and I would never take Anderson under no circumstances. Melo can Opt out and we would be doing them a favor lmao.

Read on Twitter

Right now, the Knicks are holding up a Carmelo Anthony trade.

But even if New York’s new regime relents on dealing Anthony to the Rockets, there are still complications.

Houston would probably have to send out Ryan Anderson, whom nobody wants at his salary. Sure, some teams might take Anderson – with a sweetener or to unload their own bad contracts. Like the Trail Blazers, who have Meyers Leonard.

Chris Mannix of Yahoo Sports:

With Anthony yet to indicate he would waive his no-trade clause to play in Portland, the Blazers’ early involvement has largely been as a third-team facilitator for New York and Houston, with the teams’ inability to find a fourth team to absorb the contract of Meyers Leonard stalling at least one version of the deal, three sources with knowledge of the talks told The Vertical.

Leonard is owed $31,786,516 over the next three years. His big-man skills have disintegrated despite being 7-foot-1, and his outside shooting isn’t threatening enough to compensate. He’s just 25, so there’s time for him to rebound (literally and figuratively). But at that price, it’s a bad bet.

The Trail Blazers have plenty of lousy contracts and face the luxury tax, so presumably, they’d unload a couple for the overpaid Anderson – who can still help on the court with his floor spacing – in this trade.

The Knicks and Rockets can keep roping in more teams. But at the end of the day, someone has to end up with the worst contract in the trade, whether that’s Anderson or Leonard. Good luck finding a taker.

it's like deez knicks said, it's a shell game where the last person in the trade is stuck with a contract nobody wants. this trade is never happening. not with ryan anderson in it.

And you can guarantee the picks how again? I can guarantee the contracts.

Easily?

Rockets just gutted their team by taking CP3 for one year..

Whats next?

Did you miss 3 first round picks added to Anderson?

It's when you let hate take over common sense that you'd actually take Anderson for Melo.

But you see what you are saying? You are just suggesting we take 1 pick for Carmelo. The second we trade a pick to dump Anderson, this year or next, it becomes 1 pick for Carmelo. Along with the extra leg work of finding a taker for Anderson by ourselves.

Congrats, you've further explained your idea and have now made it worse.

Exactly the 3 picks will be very good, could be amazing - it's not trading Melo for Anderson - It's getting a pick for Melo, and a pick and a swap to absorb Anderson - Melo and CP will be done by the time the picks come around - we can easily move Anderson next summer - and our tank is strong this year

Everyone is applauding the Nets for swallowing contracts for assets, why not the Knicks?

Rockets will hold out as long as possible to try and keep Gordon.

Not based on what most of the peanut gallery here says.
