That would do a lot. It must be hard for the new GM to turn down Channing Frye and Iman Shumpert from Cleveland. The Knicks have zero pressure to...
but they can't find the 4th team, right? So how are the Knicks holding up the deal? Its bc they are refusing to take Leonard themselves, right? No...
I have to try to understand what the trade is that you are saying that is in place: The trade that Hou fans think is fair for Melo is: NY gives...
yep. His value could depreciate due to his age, but it could appreciate when he becomes an expiring contract. And a buyout next year is much...
They definitely want Harkless's contract. They definitely don't want Leonard's contract. It is the players attached to those contracts that is the...
But what is the deal? You think it's the Knicks holding it up. If no one else wants Meyers Leonard, either why do we have to take him lol? It's...
#3 is a fair point that I knew you would rebut with. Their contracts in aggregate are less on an annual basis than Melo's.

Ok - understood. But isn't asking him about expanding his NTC waive list part of the new GM doing his due diligence? Isn't trying to gain some...
OK - just a little confused. What exactly was the deal that you thought the Knicks should have settled on in order to make CA happy?
(NYK fan) Houston fans and NY fans are looking at things from two sides of a spectrum. You have to understand that we are NOT looking to compete...
What player would actually want to come here anyway? And I guess the million $ question is if he would be staying against his will, or if the...
Tell you what, you give us Daryl Morey and I'll drive Carmelo to the airport for you.
KP will probably get more frustrated once Melo leaves and his limitations are exposed. Trust me, I think he has a good future, but Melo covers a...
Yes. Definitely not optimal and I agree with most everything you say, except when weighing the ramifications of being salary strapped vs having a...
