I could see the Cavs becoming a high lottery team within 2 years. Lebron is already on the downward side of his career and isn’t getting any younger. Love might be done by then because of his injuries (or greatly diminished). Kyrie might be the only one left. They don't have any other high picks between now and 2020. Let’s trade Melo there for their 2020 first round pick.

2022 is the next year the Cavs can trade a 1st from.

If Melo stays he needs to learn how to not suck during the first month of the season. Part of that great season was starting off hot..they were pretty much a mediocre team for most of the year besides the hot start and the hot finish. The Olympics did not help him this season.

It was funny in a troll kinda way though

He looks solid though, love the catch and Shoot off 1 foot. That will keep defenses off balance.

Because there's even a chance the 2019 pick can convey in 2020 instead, that means the next available 1st rounder they can trade is the 2022 one.

Who says no?

Knicks trade: Carmelo Anthony, Kyle O'Quinn,
Knicks receive: Ricky Rubio, Myers Leonard, 13th pick, Cavs 2021 1st

Cavs trade: Tristan Thompson, Iman Shumpert, Kay Felder, 2021 1st rounder
Cavs receive: Camelo Anthony, Kyle O'Quinn

Nuggets trade: Wilson Chandler, Jameer Nelson 13th pick
Nuggets receive: 7th pick

Minny trades: Ricky Rubio, 7th pick
Minny receives: Iman Shumpert, Tristan Thompson Wilson Chandler, Jammer Nelson, 20th pick

Portland trades: Myers Leonard, 20th pick
Portland receives: Kay Felder

For Knicks: get a first rounder and a player they want while loving Melo
For Cavs: don't lose any of big 3 and add Melo. O'Quinn is good player to replace Tristan for them
For Nuggets: costs them Wilson Chandler to move up to 7 to take Isaac
For Wolves: Lose Rubio and the 7th but add 4 veteran players that help this team make a playoff push and get 20th pick
For Portland: dump Myers Leonard at the cost of the 20th pick

I figured lol but I know what KT meant, all it takes is a couple posters to run with that and start a sh*t storm

There's no such thing as 5 team trades I'm pretty sure.
