Carmelo #3: Vertical: Knicks want to trade Melo and build around Kristaps Porzingis

I personally don't think him and Griffin will play well together unless he's Dad Melo 24/7. But the moments when Griffin is on the floor and its him with the other current starting 4, I bet it will click easily.

According to a person with knowledge of the situation, who spoke to USA TODAY Sports on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the situation, the Clippers have a strong interest in adding Anthony so long as they don’t have to give up one of their Big Three of Paul, Griffin or DeAndre Jordan. Considering they have made this clear to the Knicks, the illuminating part is that the conversation didn’t die right there.

With the Knicks known to think very favorably of 24-year-old Clippers guard Austin Rivers (career-high 11.9 points per game this season), and with various combinations of trade scenarios known to include other players like veteran shooting guard J.J. Redick (who will be a free agent this summer) and super sixth man Jamal Crawford (who signed a three-year, $42 million deal last summer), it seems clear that the Knicks’ interest level in parting ways with Anthony is growing by the day.

I'm calling it! It'll be a variation of

Clippers Receive
Carmelo Anthony

Knicks Receive
Austin Rivers
Brice Johnson
Paul Pierce (wavied)
JJ Reddick
Clippers 2021 1st
Clippers 2022 Pick Swap

2) Knicks Trade JJ Reddick to OKC or other competing team for 2017 1st.

Melo and Noer for Rivers, Crawford, Reddick, Pierce, Wes Johnson, 2 unprotected firsts like 2020, 2022 and a pick swap in 2023

I'm gonna keep posting this for good luck

Reddick nor Crawford have any business on this team, only picks, young players, and cap relief.

this. just this.

if it's the clippers then it has to be more than austin freaking rivers and a 2021 first rounder... JJ to a third team and another first round pick to us is the most obv deal.

Reddick to the highest bidder. Crawford will fit right in. He's used to losing in NY.

Oh I get it. People setting up the anger to set Phil on fire by demanding things we can't get.

Problem with Isola's tweet is that we will never get that kind of package and we will never do a full rebuild. He is just saying that now so he can say i told you so later.

a hornets fan said they would want KOQ and Jennings for Hibbert/Sessions/and 2017 lottery protected 1st.

I would do that trade.

Then send Courtney Lee to indy for a lottery protected 1st.

See if you can move Rose

(probably can't move noah at this point and he will be good for the younger players to learn from).

Send JJ Redich to a 3rd team for another 1st round pick

That would be Austin Rivers, 4 future 1st round picks, and Brice Johnson.

Not a horrible way to start a rebuild.
