    Man, that Insider article is such BS. Carmelo Anthony is what he's always been, an unstoppable scoring threat. There are only a handful of those in the game. He's a valuable piece, and he's carried that Denver team for years.

    And as for Carmelo Anthony...elite?

    Come on.

    He's not the class of the NBA, but he's right there in the room.

    28 PPG - stop and think about the last time we had a Rocket put up a scoring average like that. You know who it is, and it wasn't Tracy or Steve.

    9 FTA per game - only 4 guys get to the line more often, and coupled with Martin we'd have two of the best at getting teams into foul trouble. This is a vastly underrated aspect of the game.

    And backup centers v. Yao is usually not fair.

    If that's the case then expect a small move that doesn't include Melo. Morey doesn't do what the media or fans think he'll do.

    I would trade for Brook Lopez every day out of the week. He's only going to get better.

    Blake... I'll need to see more from him though. I've heard great things about him but never really watched him in College.

    Morey always pulls a deal that no one thinks he'll do. That's how he gets his name. I expect him to do something, maybe not for Melo but for someone else. Who? Who knows.
