Don't people understand how undermanned we'll be if we give up 2 of fields, chandler, gallo? some people actually want to give up ALL 3!
Just look how deep the Nuggets are and they are still average. I don't want to see a toney , douglas, shawne williams , bill walker bench rotation

Toronto.
Melo spent 3 weeks in Canada when he was 8.
It's like a 5th home for him.
Alexis Ajinca has long intrigued Denver's brass.
He's the centerpiece of the deal and quite frankly we don't have the pieces to compete with that offer.
LaLa's family loves hockey and her favorite actor is Mike Myers.
And word is Melo LOVES Sonny Weems.
I'm hearing Jorge Garbajosa and Rafael Araujo both have reached out to Melo about playing in Toronto saying he should follow his heart. A source close to negotiations says Melo would probably be willing to sign an extension in the T.Dot. Wake up Donnie!
I'M the source!
....what?
I'm officially Melo-lirious!

Haha imagine if Melo just comes out and says something like "F*UCK this ****. Trade me to Knicks. We are going to beat the Lakers on Friday." That would be awesome. -Jitpal

Melo just may slip up and say something about leaving this team or maybe he'll say no comment.

I just want to say that I’m not here to bash anybody, or to turn this into a Gallo vs. Chandler or Chandler vs. Melo debate. I’m here to talk about a flaw in our offense that’s painful to watch as games go by. Not one person on this team outside of Amare and Gallo (he’s shown at times his ability to get to the rack, but again he does this on an inconsistent basis) takes the ball to the hoop. It’s very frustrating that we do not put opposing teams in the penalty enough to get what should be a relatively easy 2 points. I think Chandler is a good ball player but it’s frustrating that he doesn’t get to the line and decides to settle for long jumpers or 3’s. When people on this forum talk about our team, they focus way too much on the regular season. What everyone needs to realize is that we are 51 games in, and the playoffs are going to come around sooner than we think, and playoff basketball is a whole other game. Teams really put the pressure on defensively and you need players to break down defenses in the half court set (I.E. create your own shot, or be enough of an offensive threat that you demand a double team).

I think this is where a guy like Melo would really be crucial in tough playoff games on the road when we play against very good teams. Honestly I know Melo is not perfect. He isn’t known for defense, never truly developed a consistent 3 point shot, and will sometimes shoot the ball too much even if he hasn’t developed an in game rhythm. At the end of the day, we need a premier wing player to be able to consistently get to the line 8-9 times a game (while taking pressure off Amare who always sees 2-3 defenders swarming him/clogging the paint). Truth be told I watch every single Knick game and often Clyde and Breen say “take it to the hoop,” when we are shooting dreadful from outside. (Tonight 6-23 from 3). But what nobody brings up or talks about is how when it comes down to it, we really don’t have the players to take those words and put them into action. I know some of you reading this that disagree can easily go to yahoo and look up the team stats and find that we are 9th in the league at free throw attempts per game but do you honestly feel that # is a fair assessment of our team? To me its looking past that and towards the grand scheme of things and realizing again, playoff basketball is a whole other atmosphere and teams will not let us prance up the court and drop an easy 107 points against them. Games become a total grind and turn into a half court set.

We can still trade for more people. If We get melo. We can Rest either star on the Bench. and always have either Amare or Melo on the Floor.
