    Give me Team USA Melo any day. CP3 and Harden attacking and passing out to Melo all day? Yes please.

    If the question is whether I want Melo at PF or Ryan Anderson at PF, the answer is simple.

    I have to repeat this again. Melo shoots over 43 percent from downtown in catch and shoot situations. He's an elite spot up shooter.

    In NY Carmelo literally had to do anything, if he is able to just spot up and shoot wide open jumpers from Paul or Harden all day it will be game over.

    Out of him and Paul George, then I rather have Melo. Chris Paul will have Melo in check if Melo tries to be selfish or argue with Mike D'Antoni. And plus Melo will play better with Chris Paul. For me I think Chris Paul is already the leader of the team.

    i wonder if during the 2016
    i wonder if during the 2016 olympics d'antoni, harden, melo, and cp3 sat down and talked about becoming a superteam in houston? it seems plausible

    And I think if the Rockets try to get Melo, it will be a lot easier to get rid of Ryan Anderson and Ariza. I don't want Eric Gordon gone. I like Ariza but he is starting to look like Corey Brewer, and Ryan Anderson is garbage in the playoffs.

    Right, one this may be a ploy to see what Anthony's trade value is. Also they may be willing to take Ryno or do a 3 way Anderson trade with Sacramento. The difference is if bought out we keep Eric Gordon if not we could lose him if we get Paul George.

    Not to mention Tyson Chandler as well who is a likely buyout candidate later this year and has played with CP3 where he was #1 pick and roll finisher for many years.

    Buyout not happening. On ESPN right now.

    Things went sour when the Knicks decided not to buy out Melo and Phil was still pushing it.
