Yes, but it might force Melo to reconsider his options

Any deal with Houston needs to get Shlong to New York, I think he can be a good punt for the bench, reminds me an hobo KAT

I guess they wont part with Qi Zhou who looks like an interesting prospect like a Baby Yao

It's their own damn fault for giving Anderson all that dough. Now they're stuck with him and are goink to have to trade Ariza and probably Gordon to get the necessary assets to entice us to make this deal. Maybe we can enlarge to include Lee.

That's thinking big. I like that. BTW, do you know how much Melo weighs lately? Couldn't we just charge by the pound?


What does slab bacon go for by the pound these days? :lol:

I don't know, but I'm sure one of our board members knows everything Melo. You could ask nicely .... :rofl:

Careful what you wish for....Many on these boards were desperate for us to make a move...ANY move. We all saw what happened. Just warning you not to do that to yourself.

Sushi sees it like this - if we trade him for crap, it's Melo's fault. If we can't trade him, it's Melo's fault. If we buy him out, it's Melo's fault.

Did y'all notice that trading Melo has completely taken away from discussing getting T-Hard?

No trade then fuq it. Keep melo. I mean it's not like he's going to hurt the tank right? And benching him wouldn't cause more drama so I think keeping him with our young guys and mentoring them the melo way is the best way to go.
