Playoff teams that are looking for extra offense.... its not like guys are throwing random teams out there. Wizards have a need for an extra weapon. They have a need at the 4 spot. They needed what Melo does against Boston. If they advanced, it would be esential to have Melo to face the Cavs.
The knicks are trying to rebuild... we could keep Melo but how does that help Melo win. The Knicks aren't trying to win right now.
Melo needs bridge to happy retirement.
Team where he can enjoy winning without braking himself down and exposing his age.
Why this hypothetical "teams" would need him is another story.
I feel that he will stick around and slowly fade into irrelevance.
From Phil mouth KNicks stated that they do net feel obligated to accommodate anything because of Melo.
Melo will need heavy help from his supper friends to orchestrate any kind of trade.

Does Melo even help a team's offense? He shot worse than the worst shooting team last year. And that will cost the new team almost $30 mil a year. I think it would have to be a team hopelessly over the cap for the next 2 years anyway - so they don't have any better options. The team would also have to be hoping Melo can return to the more efficient player he was in his late 20s.
Clips and Wiz are the only teams I see who might make an offer, and Melo would agree to be traded to. Maybe the Cavs, if they lose in the finals.
