Carmelo Anthony as a Houston Rockets ???? why not.

IBTL.

As much as I love Jeremy Lin, I'm down. Would love to get Tyson Chandler as well...

 

So, Lin, a 1st rounder and this guy?

 

beyond the fact that it will never happen, he's not what we need, at all

 

I mean sure but can we still get Lebron and Durant?

Asik, picks and considerations?

 

Carmelo just went off for 62, we're happy if lin scores 15 points and has less than 6 turnovers.. so i'd pretty fair trade

 

A Houston rockets? Like the dancers?

 

Melo and Harden bout to show the world they're on Jordan and Pippen's level... defensively

 

I don't see why anyone laughs this off as either unfeasible or illogical.

Honestly it makes sense for all parties. Carmelo Anthony is leaving NY at this point. Just cannot see any possible way he stays. They are never going anywhere with Stat and Chandler keeping that much cap room. No star is going to wait around for those guys to clear off the books.

Houston is looking like a second round exit. You may be able to win with Howard and Harden as 1 and 1A but you will need a 1AA. Anthony provides our dream stretch four. We just need to reign in the chucking. The conventional logic says you don't trade for a guy w/o a guarantee of an extension but that does not apply here (IMO) Asik+Lin+Motiejunas+rights to Portland assets from TRob trade+2014 first rounder.


Worst case scenario Anthony doesn't really work out and leaves in FA. We still have a ton of caproom and haven't lost any great assets. Just a volume of decent assets.

Best case scenario is that Anthony/Harden/Howard are able to overcome the chemistry of teams like SA and OKC and then the fact that LBJ is by far the best player in the world (other that KD).

NY gets their media darling back along with a solid center. They don't care about actually paying those guys $30 million next year.

 

LMAO.

 

Can someone get the xibit pic

 

Very profound and certainly a thread opening topic.

 

Do not want carmelo

 

Me either I think he's gone by deadline unless they make a huge playoff push. He has said he can't wait until free agency, only thing that matters to him is winning he said he's already broke scoring records & this week said he would pick the bulls over lakers. That's slaps in the face to NY, I know Dolan does some wild stuff but he better take what he can get at deadline that man is not staying in NY.

1st Lebron
2nd Howard
3rd Melo
