The only way you could have two would be through a trade, no S&T. That way players who want max money are forced to look at smaller markets in FA and could even out the competitive balance? Also, it would force players to consider taking less money to team up? Just throwing it out there to see peoples opinions?

Guys would just do what Lebron/Bosh/Wade did last time. Or take a dollar less than the max.

Windhorst seems to understand how the money works in Chicago.

Said if Melo stays in NY it helps Heat out, if he goes to Chicago Lebron needs to wonder if the Heat can beat that team.

In the end should look like this IMO:

Melo - Knicks
Lebron - Heat
Bosh - Heat
Wade - Heat
Lance - Bulls
Gasol - OKC

Too confusing for the media, not exciting enough either. ZOMG LAKERS is much better television.

Late to this spidey thread but Melo to the Lakers would make me lol. Two chuckers does not a team make. Plus Kobe and Melo's wives in LA?! Get your popcorn ready :nod:

I think Melo is holding out to get the most money he can while playing for a contender. It seems he's angling a S&T to Chicago, but I don't know.

5th year is the only difference (but he realistically would have another contract waiting). He would make significantly more in Chicago on a 4.5% increase, than in NY on a 7.5% increase.

"If this is truly just about a title he needs to go to Chicago" - Jemele Hill and every other sane NBA fan.

It's really a no-brainer which is why it won't happen.
I'm not here to argue.

Return to Chicago Bulls
