    If it is just for Melo, hell no! If we are replacing him with another elite shooter or LBJ, then I would be fine with that.

    What a load of clueless BS!

    CC and EG ARE NOT going in a deal for Melo.

    WE have ALL the leverage.

    For me there would have to be a lot more than Melo coming back if EG was included.

    So Jerkoff Sparks would have us trade Gordon, Capela, and Anderson (and our bottom feeders) for Carmelo?

    You have to love these fans of other teams.

    And I hope the NY Knicks and Cavs aren't aiming for this kind of haul.

    28 year-old Carmelo? More of an argument there. 33 year-old and with a NTC? Nope.

    it was his only reliable move tho once somebody closed out hard on him on the perimeter

    perhaps we could've done some stuff with him on the elbow, but at the end of the day, this guy just has to make his shots...he was getting wide open looks in the playoffs and bricking...the guy went 3-29 from 3 at home in the postseason :eek:

    I'm just not high on his overall offensive capabilities, I think he's severely limited and very 1-dimensional

    it was getting so bad in the OKC series that I didn't even want him on the floor at all, and I don't trust him to play well in next year's playoffs if he's still on the team (hopefully not)

    Would be a pretty stupid trade on our part to give up all that for Melo... no way we're giving up Gordon and Capela, besides Anderson..

    Felt the same thing while watching that interview. Carmelo looked relaxed. It is clear he has told the Knicks what he would like to see happen. He wants to enjoying playing basketball again, wants to win a championship. That is clearly not happening in NY at the current timetable. Pretty clear Melo has told the Knicks, I don't want to stay here, trade me to Houston. k thx bye.

    LOL, This guy must think Kyrie has a no trade clause. The Rockets give up Capela Gordon and Anderson for Melo and somehow this deal is worse for the Cavs.

    If the Cavs did this Lebron would demand a trade lol...

    He is gonna be so sad when all they get is Anderson and a bunch of expiring.
