Melo Spotted in Downtown Indy 

Post#1 » by Jake0890 » Sun Jan 27, 2019 6:39 pm

In an effort to keep fanning the flames around here, let's see what y'all have to say about this one...

https://www.wishtv.com/news/local-news/carmelo-anthony-in-indianapolis-saturday-night-after-oladipo-injury/1729846224

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - Former New York Knick and Houston Rocket Carmelo Anthony was in Indianapolis Saturday night, sources tell News 8's Charlie Clifford.

Anthony, who was recently traded from the Rockets to the Chicago Bulls, had dinner in the Circle City but it's unclear who he met with at this point.

This comes after Pacers star Victor Oladipo suffered a season-ending knee injury.

Anthony is still under contract with the Bulls.

I mean. I'm mostly against it completely. Like, totally. But if we were to go the route of selling off pieces for draft picks and future assets and whatnot, I could see bringing him in as a replacement piece so we could still make a push towards the post-season.

Eh why not. I'm not sure we could get anyone any better without giving up assets or cap space and it seems Nate simply won't give Sumner or Alize any wing minutes.

Adding Carmelo would be more of a push AWAY from the post season.

I read someone say it'd be a low risk, high reward signing.

LOL, Carmelo wouldn't be a high reward even if he gifted you a winning powerball ticket.

Just say NO to this bum.

Melos was Courtside at the Knicks game last night at MSG for Wade’s last game in NYC. I don’t really care one way or another if we sign him, he’d have to play behind Thad. But I’m not sure that if he was even in indy, that it was to meet about a signing.
