I just read on the WT that the Nets and Clippers are the only ones who have trade assets that would work? Let's get him!

don't believe everything you read on the wiretap. if its a 2 team race between the Nets and the Clippers I am pretty sure Melo would just stay in Denver to save himself the embarassment

The question now becomes, who do we give up to make this trade happen? I don't see Baron going since they have Chauncey and I don't think Kaman will fit since they have Nene and Birdman.

Due to my limited knowledge, I'm a bit confused as to who we'll have to give up in order to make this trade happen.

Aminu, Jordan, Bledsoe & Minny's 1st round pick.

Good young players to develop w/ rebuilding Nuggets

Take your trolling elsewhere. Consider this a warning.

Aminu + Caron Butler and 2 #1s to Denver. Kaman to Dallas, and Melo to the Clipz(works on ESPN trade machine). Denver gets a young prospect, salary dump and two #1s. Great trade for all.

LALA makes Melo sign in LA, they start getting time on the Kardashian show, then break off into their own reality show "Melo & LALA in LA" or maybe she joins the Real Housewives of O.C.

CHA doesn't have a first for a while due to the Tyrus Thomas trade with CHI last year, and I don't think JR Smith needs to be in the deal. I still would not deal EJ or Blake in a Melo deal. We would build around those three.

I'm for any deal where we get to keep Blake Griffin and Eric Gordon.

Most likely its Kaman who would go, plus Aminu and the MINNY pick. I think we need a 3rd team to take Kaman and give Denver what they want.

Whatever deal, we need a stiff center coming back to LAC. DJ isn't ready for primetime.
