So, if the plan is to get Melo & CP3 it would seem kind of foolish to hold the Melo deal up because they want to keep Gallo around for one more year. How about Fields? Would his cap hold be small enough to make it work with CP3?

Should we be looking to try and acquire NeNe as well as Carmelo? I have not tried a trade checker yet, but it seems as though NeNe will be headed to UFA in the summer, and if we could include 1-2 more pieces, T-Wolves give up 1-2 more pieces, could we land him? Obviously our biggest hole is at the C, and even though I would hate getting rid of Gallo, we should look at doing it, because without size, we will never succeed in the East, to the point of a Championship. I would not mind using some if not most of our cap on getting him, although it may derail plans fro 2012.

C - Nene
PF - STAT
SF - Melo
SG - Fields
PG - Felton

That deal was someone's pipe dream it was never gonna happen, so nothing to kill anyways.

Granted he is a knock down shooter, he would kill us against Rondo, D-Rose and Miami when they have Lebron or D-Wade at point.



Billups was scorched by D-Will. Felton was scorched by Jameer....granted the new Felton is better but the old Felton still shows himself.

Cheryl Miller just reported that Carmelo told her before the game "the decision is out of my hands" when she asked him if he plans on staying in Denver.

Strange answer lol

According to Cheryl Miller when asked if Carmelo wished to remain with the Nuggets., Melo responds,
"It's out of my hands".

How do you guys interpret that?

Cant argue with that but i still feel this year and moving forward felton is a better defender. I doubt its gonna matter cause i really doubt were doing a chauncey for felton swap anyway.

It's out of his hands sounds like Denver has decided to trade him and he has to wait and see where he will wind up.

Melo really has poor lift around the rim. That continues to concern me greatly.

Also the more I think about this and take stock of it, the more I think that Denver is just going to keep Melo unless he will agree to go to the Nyets. They can always revisit a trade right before June 30 (a day before the lockout).

I guess if I was going to go the other way I'd say he could mean that it's up to the Knicks to get him to NY.

Yeah your right it has really stopped guys like Dirk, Kevin Love and Durant from being good players. and thats why Jr smith and Nate robinson are such great players cause they could jump high.
