We're not taking Anderson.

Looks like The Blazers have lost their minds and will take him

Assets that will include a draft pick and whatever Portland gives for Anderson to NY for Melo

So does the trade happen today or do we wait to see if the THJ deal goes through first? You'd have to believe they have a deal worked out at this point

That's what I said?

Please, clarify

The Rockets have until midnight to trade those unguaranteed contracts, or else they become fully guaranteed, so if something is gonna happen, it'll be today

All I gotta say, this trade better net the Knicks multiple first round picks from a lousy team and the Rockets. We know, the Knicks are getting garbage in return.

Ian Begley on SportsCenter: People within the Rockets organization feel real confident they will land Melo.

Dad Melo at the 4, to root hard against GSW. I'm ready. All of NY is ready to root for him there.

ZeroStatic2 · Post #1631 » by **ZeroStatic2** » Fri Jul 7, 2017 1:23 pm

Anderson + Smart/Bradley + 1st round + 2nd round pick(s) for Melo

also I'm hearing all kinds of different things about C.Lee being flipped for future 1st rounder/2nd rounder(s) and for cap space.

If the Houston non-guaranteed contracts become guaranteed today, then no doubt the trade to Houston happens today, if it happens at all.

ZeroStatic2 · Post #1633 » by **ZeroStatic2** » Fri Jul 7, 2017 1:27 pm

They're looking to trade C.Lee for cap space to be able to sign Free agent Jonathon Simmons

ZeroStatic2 · Post #1634 » by **ZeroStatic2** » Fri Jul 7, 2017 1:32 pm

How many wings does this team really need? lol

I am ready for DadMelo to stay in NY and take all his adopted sons (KP, LT. WHG, THjr, Baker, Ntilikina) under his wing and go to war against all the naysayers!

If he has THjr and Ntilikina working out at his gym, it is so hard for me to believe there isn't a part of Melo that wants to stay in NY, even if they are in the lottery again.

I think he will end up in Houston. However, the more this continues to drag on, the more I suspect Melo will not get dealt. If Melo embraces a mentor role and falls in line with a youth movement, how can you totally force him out?

I feel like Melo would be just as happy staying a Knicks as he would be going to Houston or Cleveland.

Billy Goat · Post #1638 » by **Billy Goat** » Fri Jul 7, 2017 3:23 pm

He ain't getting traded. This idiotic Hardaway contract seals that deal. Hello 27 wins!

He's getting brought out if he refuses to agree to a trade I think that much is clear.. The Knicks WANT him out

So basically Anthony wins and the Knicks are screwed again? The absolute worst scenario is the Knicks buying him out.

Should Melo Be Traded
