As a fan? No way, never, not in a million years. Paul retires a Celtic. Carmelo who? Isn't that a candy bar?
As a GM, yeah, you kind of have to make that trade if it's straight up and you want to keep your job.
Would you trade a 32 year old Pierce for Melo or do you ....

How is he trying to bait? It's an honest question and if your not a homer then you should have no problem with it.

I would do it in a heart beat, As a fan I want my GM to do anything possible to extend windows and keep us a winning team as long as possible.

Everyone keeps saying "extend the window" as if there would be a window without Pierce. Being a "winning team" without a chance to win a championship sucks. If you don't believe 'Melo can lead a team to a championship then you don't make the deal.
I am sure some of you would chose 5 years of 55 wins and a second round playoff exits over one championship, to me that isn't winning that is losing.
