But Asik and Lin are also already expiring at the same time, what's hard to understand about that? At least with Asik and Lin if your dream scenario doesn't work out we still have guys on the squad. Most of the guys here who are advocating the Melo trade would be the first one ****ting on Morey and the team if the trade backfires...which it will because it's such a stupid ass move. NYC could've had Melo for free in the offseason, but because the owner was a dumbass they traded their entire team for Melo: Wilson Chandler, Gallo, Mozghov. And for what? A couple of playoff appearances, and now Melo's raising **** about wanting to leave the team? What hell was the point of that trade, Melo's leaving them with no results produced and all their good young promisng players gone. The sad part is, they can't even profit this year, because their picks belong to Denver. And now you guys want us to be sucker 2.0 and give up our own assets for half a season of Melo? Once you gut a team to get a superstar, then you make it all about the superstar and he has no reason to stay in the team if he's not happy. The main reason Dwight joined the team was because we were pretty good without him, if you trade the pieces and make it all about Dwight and Harden and Melo (who will leave in half a season), you remove the reasons for them to stay on the team because they won't lose anything if they leave. Cleveland made it all about LBJ so when he left, all he was leaving was a bad coach, horrible FO, Anderson Varejao and rejects like Mo Williams and Larry Hughes.
wtf is happening with new york...30+ against boston before 4th quarter even started. Melo might request a trade?
