    Gordon. Especially since we have PJ Tucker on board.

    Could mean we keep trading him to the Knicks forever -- every year. That organization would be stupid enough to do it if the NBA didn't step in. Lol.

    Gordon, but Morey shouldn't give up either for Melo. Anderson is the misfit toy against Golden State that needs to be traded.

    I can comment on this. My experience is fans typically do not turn to Steve Kyler for relevant information. Especially a big trade.

    smh, we better not include Trev in a trade for Melo unless we're getting Harkless from Portland for example as well

    When asked about likelihood of CP3 to Houston, less than two weeks before:



    When asked about likelihood of Rockets moving Brewer at this year's deadline, less than a month before:



    When asked what teams are in on Rudy Gay last offseason:



    Obvious trolling, for good measure:

    EGo, but it's closer than people think.

    If we get Melo we will have plenty of people to put the ball in the hole while premium defenders will be much more of a priority. Plus, Ariza ups the chances that Paul stays.

    Pros for EGo are he's a better player, younger, a better contract, better asset, and most importantly is all of our guard depth and bench scoring.

    I will be absolutely shocked if Morey gave up premium rotation players like Gordon or Ariza. Just look at what the Pacers got for PG13. It's a very similar situation with Melo bc the Knicks cannot go into the season with him on the roster.

    Kyler sucks.
    Other than that he's right that players know last.
    But that is in capable FOs and teams.
    The Knicks aren't that.

    I don't like any trade for Melo that includes Trev or Ego and doesn't bring back a suitable replacement

    Ariza is not a good player.

    If we lose Ariza, we could upgrade that spot to Troy Williams.

    If you think scoring is the only thing that matters, sure. But Ariza is a solid 3 point shooter that guards the opponent's best wing so Harden doesn't have to. He's a very good role player, that is desperately needed against the team the Rockets are trying to beat for a championship in the Warriors. Basically a well rounded Andre Roberson.
