Woj: Knicks, Rockets re-engage on Carmelo Anthony trade talks

We can't include 2019. 2020.

 

I understand your point. Tossing even a low 1st into a deal does have somewhat of an impact in being able to use a 1st in a later deal (although there frequently seems to be a work around). While low, it's a higher pick than the next one down (obviously!). Sometimes, though, the 1st pick in the 2nd might be better than, say, the last in the 1st round. It gives a GM far more contract flexibility (but the GM loses a future trade piece) and the talent difference can be negligible (or it may not be!). Guess it's why Morey makes the big bucks. He has to weigh everything and make hopefully the right call.

 

The positive I get from this is that Dolan and mills are wanting to move him and aren't planning on holding him hostage. They won't interfere with the trade once perry sees a deal he likes.

 

Ok.

 

One thing that everyone is looking over is the key....

Harden- the original beard.
Paul- been rocking a beard for a while, but nonetheless still has it
Melo- just started to grow out his beard in the past few months

Coincidence? I think not.

The beard bros in H-town. Read between the lines...... it's gonna happen folks.

 

yeah, I called out Favors as the ideal third piece a few months ago. The feedback here in Salt Lake is that he would be "too much to give up." I don't see it; Anderson and Gobert are the ideal complements and Favors has never really had a solid role there.

 

Or singing Houston Solution...R. Milsap

 

Favors and Gobert sort of occupy the same space. You can have the former spell the latter for 14 minutes per game, but putting them on the floor at the same time seems rather Howardy-Asiky to me. Anderson would be ideal with Gobert. In which case, I hope hot new Anderson wifey likes Salt Lake City; but I guess Ryan must have discussed with her the potentially peripatetic life of an NBA player.

But of course I would say, "C'mon, Jazz, take Anderson and send your expirings to New York!" Maybe pull an Obi-Wan: "Ryan Anderson is the player you're looking for." "Ryan Anderson is the player we're looking for....."

AGREED

 

Time to bump the Harden is Fat thread?

 

Sorry that's what I meant. Our picks are insignificant

 

basically Melo would be a Rocket by now if PhilJax was still working the phones

 

favors is more of a modern 5. And u already have an elite 5 in Gobert. Favors was benched in the post season because of his inability to stretch the floor. I'd grab Anderson if I were Utah because I am not getting another player thru free agency. Anderson can come at a HUGE discount now. rather than losing favors for nothing in July

On Knicks side of things, he's an expiring. And a good young asset

 

Plus, Favors' injury history is even worse than Anderson's. Anderson can score and stretch the floor, while Utah's defense could be good enough high to hide his deficiencies. Favors doesn't even have a set role there with Gobert owning the middle.

 

What's on his left shoulder?

 

has to keep mentioning "known internationally" because he is irrelevant where it matters most, in America

 

Don't come into an opposing team's locker room, spouting your views, without expecting to get trolled. You should have responded better when that happened. Truth is, all groups have their fair share of trolls. Men rise above it. Little immature children respond in the eye-for-an-eye way that you came with.

Furthermore, stfu with your elitism. I doubt you represent even a small portion of the PDX bball fan base, but you're making them look terrible. You are a horrible representative, and it's likely why nobody wants to work with you.

I bet the best you'll ever work with in a meaningful role will be with Tommy Wiseau.
