    My 2 questions to you guys....
    1)Can we flip Anderson for someone else instead?
    2)If we don't get Melo and bring back Anderson.....can we beat GS?

    That's the point of a three teamer, we essentially flip Anderson for what the Knicks want back

    My boi Anderson can flame up vs the warriors

    Ryan Anderson may be a real weapon... Warriors seem to have difficulty defending him

    harden didn't show up either. Everyone knew game 5 was the big one. That loss took the life out the series

    He who looks will find what he seeks, Melo will be a Rocket in less than two weeks.

    Shouldn't Tillmann's mob friends convince Dolan to give us Melo?

    He could just buy the Knicks give Melo to the Rockets then sell the Knicks. Easy as 1 2 3 .

    I really am wondering what are the other packages that these other teams are offering for Melo that would even entice him to go there. It just doesn't make sense anymore. Clevland doesn't want to give up Kevin Love for Melo. There is nothing Portland could offer that wouldn't require gutting a core that would then put them at title contention by just adding Melo. What on earth are the Knicks expecting at this point for a 33/34 year old. Wasn't the Bucks offer good enough? Whatever happened to the Jazz helping us? I really am looking forward to destroying the Knicks even more this year.

    He had 4 other games in which he only scored 4 points or less during the playoff. How do you explain that? It's not like he's doing good defense instead when he couldn't score.

    LOL even you admit that giving both RA and Ego for Melo and Lee is over paying

    Melo's not all that to give up both RA and Ego. Just RA and whatever/whoever Morey think is fair to get a 33 year old Melo

    being stuck with 20m per 39 yo Ryno, a 40% stretch who can be a solid role player around kpap and co for for 2 years, then expiring on the 3rd year >>>>> being stuck with 26m per 33 yo Melo for 2 more years

    bottomline was NY was at the beginning okay and gave a verbal okay with the trade and felt they were getting a fair trade or slightly less value at worst

    for some reason they are now changing their mind and want more

    How do Texas mob friends measure up to Dolan's NY mob friends?

    Anderson to me did a lot less than Harden In terms of expectations in contrast with the amount of money on contracts. We get more bang for the buck with Harden.
