    Melo has a no-trade. Bad news for Celtics fans and Knicks fans lmaooo.

    Knicks either take trash from us or trash from Cleveland or buyout Melo and lose him for nothing in return!

    It might be but Anderson can still play basketball. Noah is damaged goods (or worse, the corpse of Joakim Noah as some have said).

    Joakim Noah next three years
    $17,765,000 (age 32-33)
    $18,530,000 (33-34)
    $19,295,000 (34-35)

    Doesn't matter. We have Nene we don't need his services. Just a cap relief for New York.

    This is absurd, Noah's contract is far worse. Anderson is still a very productive player. Noah is no longer an NBA player.

    I think teams like Orlando or Detroit might be interested in Anderson. They have to give up something that the Knicks want and money has to match.

    If Melo wants Clev then I guess there's nothing we can do but I'm not sure that's where he's leaning. We have a shot.

    Haa nah I think it's cool. I know this site for the longest had the most fans/posts for a NBA team. I'm not sure if that's still the case. It has to be pretty close though still.

    How could anyone possibly want to give up Ariza who is our starting SF to add Melo AND take Noah's contract?

    Noah shouldn't even be in the discussion. His contract is worse than Anderson's. NY would have to be giving us at least 2 picks for that garbage contract.

    Did some math and the issue is the $125M hard cap. The Rockets have $108M in guaranteed money right now. Melo already makes $7M more than Ryan Anderson. Lee makes $11.7M.

    Ochocinco tweets he has sources saying Melo is coming to Houston. Carmelo posts video of himself running on a soccer field. Ocbocinco's very next tweet he is playing soccer. Hmmmm

    What about a 3 team trade
    • Knicks get Eric Gordon, Cleveland's 2020 1st, Rockets 2020 1st and the Rockets "TPE"
    • Cavs get Melo
    • Rockets get Love
