Is Blake Griffin trolling us?

http://knicks.247sports.com/Bolt/Blake-Griffin-says-LeBron-will-team-up-with-the-Banana-Boat-crew-106333812

Honestly, I don’t see him coming to L.A. period. Listen, again, I have no idea [laughs]. I think something is brewing with him and his group of guys. I don’t know what’s going to happen, but I think something’s brewing and they’re going to try to make that work.

I could see him going to New York before L.A. I still think, when you go to the Garden, it’s a completely different feeling. The energy, there seems like there’s just a consistent buzz the entire game. … Even last year when you go play them, it’s still there.

Who says no?

Trade Checker is bugged so I cant link at the moment. But saleries work.


New York Knicks Trade:
Carmelo Anthony, Courtney Lee, Kyle Oquinn, Lance Thomas
New York KNicks Receive: Ryan Anderson, JR Smith, Iman Shumpert, Cedi Osmond , BK first round pick,
Houston Trades: Ryan Anderson, Eric Gordan, Trevor Ariza, Future first round draft pick
Houston Recieves: Kevin Love, Courtney Lee, Lance Thomas

Cleveland Trades: Kevin Love, Iman Shumpert, JR Smith, Cedi Osmond
Cleveland Receives : Carmelo Anthony, Eric Gordan, Trevor Ariza, Kyle Oquinn, Hou pick


NYK Salary out: 48.7
NYK Salary In: 46.3 (These are Rough estimates. but pretty close)

Hou Salary out: 41
Hou Salary in: 41

Clv Salary out: 48.5
Clv Salary in: 50.7


Why for the Knicks? Knicks take some bad contracts and a few unwanted players. JR is drama. Ryan is overpaid and declining. Cedi in there to make the contract work and Shumpert is mediocre player. In return... Bk first round draft pick.


Why for Cleveland: give up a potential high draft pick, but Bk should not be in the bottom 6 this year. In return they get an upgrade at every position and a very slight downgrade at PF with Melo depending who you talk to. But in the same token, Melo in Cleveland means Lebron will be staying.


Why for Houston? They get a big upgrade in Love and get rid of Anderson. Lee is a consistent 3pt shooter and a 3d guy. Great for that team and hes always healthy. Lance is another 3d guy who can hit the 3pt at 40% . Dantoni gets 3 potential 40% 3pt shooters and 2 of which are good perimeter defenders. Small downgrade at SF and SG for a big upgrade at PF. No picks given up to get rid of Anderson.

The only way that pick is tossed in a trade is if LBJ has already committed in private that he'll be staying past this season. Since most people would agree that's def not a for sure thing, it shouldn't be tossed in trade ideas from Cleveland's end. They are going to need that pick, badly, if they don't want to fall back into the the cellar if and most likely when LBJ leaves. Melo wasn't worth a high lotto pick before the draft, he didn't all of the sudden get younger and became worth it just now.

They already got Crowder for about a quarter of the cost. They already have offense.......why exactly are they giving up too much of an asset in a top five pick for Melo?

Didn't realize the trade offer was Melo for a pick straight up my mistake. Oh wait....It wasn't.

It doesn't have to be.....just because you take negative value to move on from Melo in Ryan Anderson, doesn't mean you get rewarded with a top 5 lotto pick, lol. Is your argument than Lee, KOQ, and Thomas really the pieces that earn that back? :lol:

Melo hardly gets NY a servicable offer....than that's the Knicks fault because of how they handled the entire thing since resigning him. Shipping fodder out with him doesn't net a high end lotto pick. As I said before, what your offering didn't get younger/better/cheaper.....so I'm not sure how Cleveland landing a nice piece equals NY getting the same said pick to fall in their lap.

How about this?

Lee for Shump / 2019 MIN 2nd / 2020 POR 2nd

CLE upgrades at the backup SG and doesn't give up any potential rotational pieces.

Knicks get some minor assets and long term
salary relief.

IT DRose
JR Lee
Lebron Crowder
KLove Green
TT Zizic

Frank Baker
THJ Dotson
Shump Kuz
Melo LFT
KP WHG
