    Was thinking more about threads dedicated to the acquisition of a specific player... just seems like even with Dwight that it wasnt this long of a process. And Dwight was being talked about for years. I remember starting a thread saying we should trade Kyle Lowry for assets to get Dwight probably two years before he came.

    But if you really think about it this Melo pursuit and speculation has been going on since he was on the Nuggets. And even to his FA a few years ago. Morey has been relentless!

    Except then we'd have had to throw more money into the trade to make the salaries match.

    Man, the special olympics are everything that's right about sports. Those folks are amazing and doing it for all the right reasons.

    Which is insane because my Dwight thread right before it was the biggest ever but it only got 15,327 replies.

    That cyber thread is historic.

    Even more insane may be the fact that I read every single page of both threads, as well as almost every melo thread page.

    My girlfriend isn't happy with my life choices

    That's a good point. This is far from being a one year quest.

    A deal like jerebko to jazz? eh nbd really cares. But this multi-team blockbuster with Melo? Definitely about timing, probably happens after cp press conference

    This is so crazy that we're probably getting Melo and keeping EGo. That's a big 4 if you ask me.

    They could certainly used Allen Crabbe, Portlands overpaid SG. Granted thats a LOT of contract to take back when you already maxed Holiday, Davis and Cousins coming up. However, he's a really really good SHOOTER.

    Knicks would take probably Solomon Hill and Omer Asik to match salaries, but most importantly, picks.
