If he is traded, we are getting garbage back. Prepare yourself, its going to be cap friendly, but awful talent wise.


They took a lesser package to get him out of the East. Everyone criticized them for the package they got.

Cleveland deal with RJ, Shump, Frye, rights to Osman and a pick should get this done. If Houston still wants Shump for those nonguaranteed contracts, we can move him there. Maybe we get another second round from Houston as well.

The NTC really limits our options. Will he still be valuable 2 years from now?


So giving him his money and getting nothing in return other than the 'pleasure' of watching a healthy Melo get everything he wants playing with LeBron in the finals is the better alternative? I'd rather him sulk in NY leading them to another top 10 lottery pick, which is his best skill apparently and then he can opt out leaving for nothing in return.

He needs other real alpha stars to make his soft beta bitchazz look capable of winning anything. :lol:

We need to open up shot opportunities for THJr. He's our #1 option now. With us planning to keep Lee, Timmy would be expected to get all of Melo's shots.

If you're Lebron and consider how bad the east is...why would you rush a Melo move? They're going to be at worst a 2 seed again...no need to trade for him now when the Knicks are guaranteed to be awful again next year.


Lebron and Melo ain't getting any younger. The longer they wait the more chance they miss their window to even have a chance of beating the juggernaut.
SELL THE TEAM, JIM!!! :curse:

#1 options need to be able to create their own shot. unless we play him like reggie and ray allen and have him come off sscreens all game annd shoot. he is probably just a 3rd option.
