    Gutting your team for someone who is GOING to come to you anyway makes absolutely no sense at all. Especially, a one dimensional player.
    Going to them anyway? Melo wants that 65 million extension he not going to wait to sign and get less money. Remember this the same guy who would not pass on 80 million like Lebron and Wade did. I think it would be easier and quicker to build around Melo and Stat than Stat and role players. The Knicks are not gonna make any noise this season if they combined teams with Denver, im talking about the future. Miami is gonna be better, Boston still hanging around, Chicago is getting better and thats only teams in the east.

      and THIS is why I dont feel bad for his pockets... all he had to do was be smart and be like his draft classmen and take one less year and he'd be out, but since he decided to deal with an extra year for more dough this is what he has to deal with.... its almost over though

          You find me one GM out there who wouldn't want to take him on their terms without giving up anything and I got a piece of Beachfront Land in Wyoming I'd sell you.

          And LOL @ he wasn't going to the Knicks in FA. The hell he was gonna go? Certainly not Denver and he damn sure wasn't coming to Newark, not that he was anyway.
          I am not saying is the Knicks problem. But if they want to secure him they go get him. Bucher and reports are stating that if Knicks did not trade for him then he would sing with the Nets to not lose the 20 million.

          That is a chance you do not take

            Meh, we're used to this by now.

            I'd rather us not even bother getting involved in this mess(AGAIN)since we all knew nothing had changed between last month and now, except the fact that he's doing more and more interviews about playing for OTHER teams. That's the sad part in all of this.

              Rich Bucher said on ESPN not to long ago that his sources tell him that if Knicks deal did not happen Melo would sign with Jersey because he does not want to hit FA and lose 20 million

              Stephen A Smith also said that he heard it from Melos camp that Melo is upset at NY that they have not made this happen yet.

                And like I asked the other dude, how is this the Knicks' Problem? Again, EVERY team KNOWS he wants to go to NY so what other options would he have? Go to Jersey? LMAO

                He wasn't going to sign with the Nets man.

                EDIT: Sir Charles was spot on with everything he said regarding this situation.

                    Man...he needs to look at his own Front Office for trying to pimp other teams in the league. The Denver FO has no idea what they're doing and they're the reason this thing has dragged out for so long.

                    They don't want to lose Melo for nothing but they want the farm.

                      This really makes sense....

                      If he's going to sign with the Nets in FA, why the hell would he not just sign the extension with them months ago?

                        What are you referring to?

                        He would sing the extension with the Nets once he is traded.

                        Melo's whole thing is that he did not want to go into FA because he would lose the 18 million he has for next year under his player option with the Nuggets and with the CBA thing the 3 year 65 million extension Denver is offering would be added to the 18 he already has for next year.

                        If he goes FA then he would not be able to get a 4 year 84 million deal from the Knicks

                        So the Knicks are trying to trade for him now because the Nets came hard at Melo this past few days and Melo was not going to lose his 18 million player option plus whatever lower amount the CBA next year might give

                        He would only go to the Nets if the Knicks could not get deal because he was not going to risk losing that much money

                          He wasn't going to sign with the Nets man.

                          It's a chance you do not take and I just posted to you why this trade is fine for the Knicks because they are basically giving up Chandler who was not going to be kept with Melo on team and Curry contract along with a pick from AR trade to Minny

                          Sorry but that is something you gotta do if presented for Melo

                          If Knicks do not have STAT they do not do this trade

                              You keep saying it's a chance you don't take but what other options does he have? Unless Dolan really actually believes that Melo would even come to Jersey, which I don't know why he would even think that.

                              Don't even know what the Knicks are upping the offer for because if it's up to Melo, he'd choose the Knicks no matter who has the better deal at this point.
