Melo to Washington for Porter (or Oubre) or Melo to Sixers for some assets would be OK by me.
Hopefully whoever strikes out with PG goes after Melo.

Melo / Saric
Embiid / Okafor
i'd try to get saric off their hands. they seem to not be as high on him as the others, even covington.
Cause hes not good
i thought he balled out last year. was in the ROY conversation.

Fuq frank azzhole-ah. I love kp but a work related meeting is a meeting. And the reason for him not showing up to that at this early stage of his career is alarming.

More like a part 3. We already had a part 2. How'd you forget about this genius. ....

I'm sure Melo loves his kid like most every other father but he's using him as a convenient excuse.
I'm guessing most NBA players have kids who's mothers they are not in relationships with and play in a different city then the kids in.

I really don't care about doing what's best for Melo at this point, but the ball is in his court and he's just going to hold it like usual.

I said all along he isn't going anywhere. He's made it clear many times that a title isn't that important to him and has tried to convince himself gold medals are just as good.
His ego couldn't handle being a third option on a good team..hed much rather continue to chuck shots on the Knicks and his fans can continue to point to his ppg average as trying to claim he's a great player.

Yeahhhhhhhhh... It's going to be pretty pretty awkward when KP has to report to team practice in a month or two.

KP is on another level of petty that I never would've expected from him.
