    Who knows? Somebody's burner.

    Anyway, I always get a laugh when he posts. It's like he's just out there talking to himself.

    Melo for Jeff Green. No picks.

    Melo goes home and gets to be Melo for a team thats tanking. Rockets get a backup 3/4.

    That would very cool, but Melo's trade value is at an all time low.

    I think MCW (who they would waive) and 2nd round picks would be appropriate as we saw with Holiday. Tax savings and 2nd round picks ain't bad.

    I’ve got a trade idea. It’s really original.

    Knight + 4 First Round Picks
    To.........
    Philly for Jimmy Butler

    We just need Brett Brown and Jimmy to keep fighting

    Low cost and low asking price

    Wayne Ellington is a 3-and-D type of player, a versatile wing who can space the floor.

    Anyone wants him?

    Melo and Chris + 2 Seconds via 3rd team.

    I’ve wanted Ellington for a year now, but why would the Heat sell on him? They are the 6th seed currently.

    Is he creating problems I don’t know of?

    cont’d

    Same with Jimmy Butler. Why would the 76ers be selling Butler. They brought him in to help fight for a
    championship and they are currently the 4th seed.

    Jimmy is not going anywhere. They will work out any infighting they might have.....or go their separate
    ways at seasons end.

    @ApacheWarrior Is James Ennis eligible for a trade this season? I want to include him in a random trade idea.

    Sure. He past the Dec 15th deadline allowing trades of FA signings of this past summer.

    I doubt he had guarantees that the Rockets wouldn’t trade him.....supposedly that’s why JJ Redick didn’t
    sign with us. Feared being an asset, turned around and traded.

    Ennis and Hartenstein plus a low 2nd rounder for Mitchell Robinson. Works on the ESPN trade machine.
    Ennis is less helpful, because of House, and our backup center position gets better. Hartenstein is not a bad addition for the Knicks.

    I believe a backup center is in need right now too. What about that backup center that played for Knicks last year. He supposedly was coveted this summer, but not sure where he signed.
