Knicks · How does Kevin Love for Melo even make sense? (page 1)

Would we just trade him immediately for picks? I don't see how he would fit the lineup. Maybe if KP played Center, I can't see Love playing Center. Is Willy not going to be a starter then? I say we flip Love for a wing if thats even possible.

he is a better asset than Melo thats all. It makes no sense for the Cavs since they can get a lot better deal than Melo

Love is better and younger. He has much more trade value. If we kept him or traded him we'd be a better team. I doubt that it will happen now that Chauncey Billups is out of the running for the Cav's job.

Wiggins is not even good enough to be a poor man's Melo. The other two are OK role players but I don't want there to be any chance of Dolan giving Wiggins a big contract.

If love is better then how come no one wants him? Come on man that was so before the draft when the media was bashing Phil any chance they had.

Melo is the better now player with a lot more talent. I can't even imagine what lebron would do for Melos game, he would have a super star year

Kyrie
Jr
Lebron
Melo
Thompson

Is the top team in the east, they would be the favorites to go to the chip.


Again no one wants a injury prone no defense empty stat stuffer. That's why we are unwilling to trade melo strait up for him. And why the pacers said hell no for PG13 and the bulls said hell no for butler.

If they want melo then they better find a 3rd team to take love we want yoots and picks minny might want love back, or we call up the lakers

i dont see why we dont give Love a chance, Kp should mix 4 and 5 all the time anyway, depends on matchups

for tanking love is perfect and we trade him next year

Funny how the same people that give Melo a hard time for not being able to win with the likes of AA, Calderon and Lance Thomas praise Love even though his number are meh but plays with the best player on the planet and one of the best PG's in Irving.

Fact is Melo is still one of the best scorers in the league and Love can't carry the Cabs when Bron is off the court. Reason why he has such high minutes. The Cavs would be better with Melo. Sorry cuz I know how much you like him.

My son is a Lebron fan....so hes' a heat and now cleveland fan. He's only 11.....And he told me Love sucks. Love going to cleveland exposed his weaknesses. And as others have said, how come it's hard to trade him?

Love and his contract vs Melo and his contract

Thats the real comparison. And the Knicks are committed to a youth movement, Love or Melo doesn't fit that plan.

Hypothetically if this deal did go down then we would flip Love somewhere else for picks. I'm not a Love fan but him being younger probably helps his value a bit

I think if the Cavs could find a team interested in Love a three team deal would happen. Also, does Love have back issues? I can't remember but I thought there was speculation that the Cavs were concerned because he has health issues.

Lol about your son. Lebron is a great player. Talk is the Knicks would use a third team for younger assets. I do not think Love makes any more sense than Melo here.

Truthfully I cant remember if he had back issues but you may be right. I think when all is set and done some deal will happene whether its Cleveland and Houston. Nothing against Melo but its simply time for both sides to move on
