Not Easy.

In no way am I saying Phil Is a World Champion level gm(yet)

But make no mistake about it.... he is one of the brightest minds in NBA history.

Phil could very well be playing Hardball with Melo's Team...

If the lakers are being used as leverage, than Melo's team has to sell it. And sell it hard.


We don't know the story. Nobody is leaking anything.


What I do pretty much know... Melo is not going to a Lebronless Laker Team in a 10-12 deep stacked West, with a 35 Year old Kobe.


What I don't get about he leverage angle is the Bulls according to Ralph gave him two options. One with Gibson for less money or without Gibson which would get him the max. The Knicks don't even have to take Boozer in the deal he can go someplace else and New York gets different kinds of assets. Phils isn't going to let Carmelo walk for nothing so what bluff of his is their to call?
Losing to get high draft picks and hoping they turn into franchise players is not some next level, genius move. That's what teams want to happen in any rebuild/tank or whatever you want to market it as.

That's not a statement you can make right now, with all indications that LA is in better shape than we are. And don't sleep on 35 year old Kobe, much like it wouldve been foolish to sleep on 35 year old Jordan. Kobe has a couple years left in the tank. Maybe Melo isn't about the money, but what we've learned is that he and his wife are all about the big stage, and NY or LA gives that to them more than anyone else. And it sucks, because from a basketball perspective we are the obvious choice. Melo won't win in LA, but if you have to like their chances to get him more than ours right now.
