    Olympic medalist. College champion. Wants to actually be here. Would own team's 2nd and 3rd defenders.

    If the cost is right, Melo could be amazing. Only for the right cost.

    Melo can't be no worse than Anderson was in the playoffs.

    Because everything you listed is Carmelo as the #1 face of a franchise. He's not coming here for that. He's coming here to be the third option, take pressure off himself AND his teammates, and decimate the opponent's 3rd best defender. It's not difficult to understand that the mere fact that Melo WANTS to be here shows the distinct shift in his attitude.

    The question looks to be: Do I start a Melo thread?

    And that answer seems to always be: Yes.

    Clutch needs to put an end to all these garbage threads. This is not any news/analysis/breakdown. Just a random opinion that could go any of the other 32791267543095869302454358 Melo threads

    Reason why the trade hasn't gone through is because essentially we are swapping Anderson for Melo.

    If that's the trade, we do that all day and twice on Sunday. Also FWIW Anderson/Capela > Melo

    Riddle me THIS: How many playoff games did the TWolves win with Kevin Love on the team?

    Minny never made a splash when he was 'THE MAN' and #1 option. But he helped the Cavs win their first ring
    as a 3rd fiddle to LeBron and Kyrie.

    I'm not a huge Melo fan, but can't say that he WON'T be a positive as a 3rd star.
    I'm ready to go to war with our current roster, but if we can swing Melo I'm okay with it as long as MDA is on board.

    The REAL question is: Would Melo be an upgrade over Ryan Anderson?
    The answer should be a definitive YES

    Your moniker does not suit your rhetoric. Cocaine was a helluva drug in the 80's. Shame it never left you Sweet Lew.

    You just posted a bunch of lies.

    You should be ashamed of yourself for taking all that time to hate on someone.

    Ban you!!! OP brings up valid points (although he should have added that Melo is old). Would rather have this discussion than read fake insiders like Pounder and Doc Rocket.
