But, he should waive the NTC and if he don't adhere to the promise, then he gets traded.
Reality is its just time for many reasons. Some being age, team, phil, melo, etc etc...........Just makes sense.
If Melo really wants to focus on his kid, stay in NYC, be a good husband, etc, and the triangle, PHil and what ever is ruining his life, then he can retire. Lots of people change jobs/professions when it infect the most sacred duty a man has, which is as father and Husband, why should he be different? If not, then its melo that puts money over his family, not Knicks. Not like he is banging out the rent and food on the table!
Melo don't live the same lives as us, with the same problems. Divorce sucks, but when your worth over a hundred Mil you have choices others don't have.
I don't think so. I hate to say it but this the norm. Its very rare that famous people stick it out together. He had to of known it was coming, anyways regular people who aren't rich and famous go through this also, the work place asks that you leave you personal life out of the business. This is just another excuse. there is going to be no revelation and Melo is all of a sudden going to make great passes and hold the ball less.
Im really bad at demonstrating sarcasm.
Not the part about him retiring or what ever. Your right, high profile wealthy rarely stay together. They are always off in different directions and sometimes having a kid is something that they instinctively want, but its often an "Accessory". Not to say they are bad people or bad parents, but they are committed to TV shows and other things. Parenting was a big part of our lives for a long time. I sacrificed part of my career to do it. I can't comment on them as parents as I don't know them or the child.

Main reason, other than the weather and business move, is to play in a MSBL weekend warrior wood bat league. Lol Who would of thunk that a guy like you with such a horrible Phil perspective plays some ball too. 
I would have a plan b Hofstra. Lived in fla for a long time, longer than I planned, very happy I finally left. Its 90 degrees and 90 percent humidity almost year round, the people are just like the stories you read about, and the Governor is insane, and turning over the state to polluters of all stripes.
Seriously, I would look at other places if it isn't too late. Not trying to be a buzzkill, cant tell you how many fellow refugees from NYC I met down there who came to the same conclusion. Best of luck whatever you decide.
Nalod moved to North Carolina.....even with its batshyt politics its good here.
Florida is awful place built on politics of real estate developers. Place if a freaken penal colony of dishonest service workers.
The weather turns men into soft people who get afraid of discomfort. I'll take 4 seasons. The humidity, bugs, swamps, smells and decaying bad construction with no topography is an awful mix.
Fake man made waterways lined with houses whose owners think they "Live on the water" is awful.
Granted, the barrier beachs on the Gulf coast keys are wonderful, and places where those beaches have thicker vegitation and soft sand are great. Basically Caribbean waters/beach on U.S. is a good mix. What im saying is if you have 5million or more for a house, or can make a living in the Florida Keys, its a good thing. Otherwise its dense like long island, lots of traffic, fake ass everything and dishonest business practices. Coming from NY the thought of sunny campus style corp. offices and it NOT being NYC or crowded suburbs I suppose is appealing. I'd pick GreenVille, SC, Charlotte, Raliegh, Greensboro, Ashville, and Wilmington NC over anyplace in florida. I would Jacksonville is OK and on the gulf in the panhandle. Its the "SOUTH", but its better than transplanted weather whore guidos and pastel hair product feminine Latin's all pretending to be Don Johnson!
Love me some Cuban food though!!! Good stuff!
I have family down there. They all gone soft on us.
At the end of the day its not like being on vacation. You get up, go to work like everyone else.
