Knicks · Melo Is Gone (page 5)
Why didn't Jim Boheim school him then about what he should have done in order to win a title on the next level?
Can't have your cake and eat it to.

so...can melo wait and sacrifice a year of his prime next season?
i think that's the big question and i don't think he can. earl is right, you need to trade him asap. unfortunately, the knicks probably rank as one of the worst front offices in the league so they won't.
what's amazing is that melo's declaration for free agency to start the season has basically made this season moot and having all knicks fans talking about what to do in 2015. unreal.
You can't trade Melo unless he OKs it..he holds all the cards..No one will give anything of value for him unless its a salary dump...
This right here. If Melo is telling the truth, he will not opt out and re-sign for less after his contract expires and we have cap room in 2015 to sign these other players he is recruiting similar to the way the three amigo's did it.
The risk is that he stays healthy and still playing at a level that garners max attention and a max deal...Bird in the hand is worth more than 2 in the bushes...
I thought winning is > then job security.... According to Melo. No doubt, history will repeat itself. Melo will put his contract before winning

Let's look at the reality of the situation instead of just throwing up answers to see if they stick..What players and at what salary...Do you think Gallo is a better fit for this team in Chandler's salary slot???..Does Wilson Chandler make us better than JR Smith does, although we might have to pay Mayor more money...Can that team with Moz in the middle compete with Miami??...

If winning was the most important thing then no player would take more than 5 mil a year in the NBA...

If winning was the most important thing to owners, they wouldn't continue to put together useless rosters that have no chance of competing for a Championship.

There are only about 2 or 3 teams that has a legit shot at winning in any given year, what do u suggest the 27 other teams do who has bills to pay??

actually the way it works is the bigger markets fund money to the smaller markets....via revenue sharing.
A team like the Bobcats arent even playing with their own money.

Not disagreeing - but the whole NBA is probably a more profitable enterprise and all teams including big market ones make more money if there are 30 than say 15 teams.
Given the complexity of their options, including a cap-clogging contract for Anthony that would carry him to 35, perhaps no worse off than if they started from scratch.

Start over, mark 2015 as the year we got a tv to see the Knicks play basketball.

Do what the Pistons did with Chuck Daily, all the favorites got the vapors, from getting a dose of gritty team basketball
