17 days until camp starts. If he's getting traded before camp...we should hear rumblings soon.

Good. The Heat telling Wade the way it's gonna be, i.e. coming off the bench. The Knicks would do well to take notes. Get Melo one of those extra-padded seat cushions.

diss melo all you want but I will not tolerate any riri slander in this thread.

melo is older and a lot slower, and this upcoming season he's just gonna trend down. do you know how badly unathletic melo is now? he had his lowest career free throw attempts because he can't blow by passed his man consistently anymore so he settles for more jumpshots which results in his low fg%.

melo at the 4 doesn't make him better, him coming off the bench makes him better. him just being instant offense makes him better.

the heat want to do it with wade, it's not a knock ... it's a way to extend his career longer.

Knicks don't really have a better option on the roster other than Melo to start at small forward.

Courtney Lee, Tim Hardaway Jr, and Damyean Dotson are too undersized to play the position on a full-time basis.

Kuzminskas is even worse than Melo on the defensive end.

Beasley is just a poor man's Melo. If anything, Beasley may take on Derrick Williams' role from two years ago.

Lance Thomas might be too untalented and injury prone to be relied upon as a starter.

As "older" and "slower" as you think Melo might be, there aren't really better options on the bench.

Woj and Zach Lowe talked on Wojs podcast about how Portland reaaaaallly wants Melo..

As I understood, they have some clue on what organization wants.

That they are not just judging how big their interest is, by just how CJ and Dame reportedly are trying hard to convince Melo to go there..

I doubt Kuz is that much worse on defense. We don't need a better option than Melo. We just need another option who won't expect the ball all of the time. A player who will move the ball more and move more without the ball more than Me7o does...which shouldn't be difficult. A player who does what's asked of him. We can worry about replacing Melo in the future. Right now we need to move on from him.

There's plenty of other options to develop right now. Frank/Baker/Timmy/KP/Billy/KOQ/Kuz/Dotson all need developing this year. Melo needs to go.

Since neither THJr or Melo are going to tear it up defensively, I'd say start THJr at SF because as least he can beat his man off the dribble, which Melo really can't do anymore.

She looks great in both pictures. She's obviously hiding the forehead in this one though, but nowadays it seems she is embracing it like Tyra.

Well this is true it also depends on what your ambitions are for the season
For example are we developing a new culture and a new style of play? If so then is melo still the best person on that bench to play that position?

I'm honestly not sure
He might be. I'm pretty sure Beasley isn't.

Thomas, despite his flaws, may be though

But to start thomas over melo is such a crazy thing to do

At least melo will draw opposing teams defenses and open the floor up

He does draw the double team, then starts backing in towards the basket, and 20 seconds later, takes a difficult fall away jumper. Ugh!

At least Beasley will shoot 50% FGs. And LFT plays defense. And Kuz is Kuuuuuuuuuz. Let Melo rot at the end of the bench.

Sure...It's always smart to use 3 players to make up for the production of one that is clearly better. Then again some people on this board want to see more loses so I guess this would work. I'm sure KP will get over intentionally losing when it comes time for extension talks.

Maybe Porzingis should start contributing to winning then.
