    From a cap or hard cap standpoint, can we trade Ryno, Capella and our NGs and take back Melo and Tyson Chandler, if it is technically split into "2 separate trades"? The trade checker doesn't real work on this scenario since they don't have all the Houston NGs valued correctly.

    The more time that passes makes it clear they can't come to an agreement.

    Melo has a vacation home in Cleveland. He loves that place.

    Also Bron was spotted looking at houses in Dickinson.

    The trade will go down b/c the Knicks has no intention to keep Melo for one more year and let him walk for free.

    It's a matter of them extracting more. No E.G./Capela in the trade. We have to hold it tight.

    And how does replacing Love with Melo move the needle at all for Cleveland? LeBron isn't basing his decision on staying or going because of Carmelo Anthony. LeBron knows what it takes to win a championship.

    I remember and know the name. For some reason though I cant remember what he did in the slightest. Peter V. I mean.

    Oh I know. It doesn't move the needle for Lebron or the Cavs. Thankfully for us, Thompson is hot garbage

    Vecsey is totally irrelevant, and anything he says should be dismissed and taken with a huge grain of salt...this is what he wrote 2 months before the Melo trade to NY happened...

    "And that’s not the only part of Sheridan’s yarn that never happened. For months he has claimed the Knicks and Nuggets have discussed various trades, recklessly throwing out the names of Danilo Gallinari, Landry Fields, Wilson Chandler and Anthony Randolph, while pretending Denver may be interested in Eddy Curry’s expiring contract and that New York owns the extraneous wherewithal to acquire a No. 1 pick from a third team to include it in the package.

    Sheer nonsense! Every last word!

    With all due respect to the players the Knicks might be prepared to offer, there have been no offers or negotiations because the Nuggets are not interested in the players who’d be available; they already have those positions covered and thus must rebuild their core through the draft should they trade Melo."

    Melo is going to be a free agent (he will opt out).

    So will Paul and James... and George....

    Why only having Paul committed for one year makes me nervous.

    It was a coding error in my auto-Ignore All bot. Fixed it. Back to you, Clutch and @J.R. are Live.
