Melo is a great scorer but he does not make his teammates around him better. A melo led team will never be a serious contender. Melo would be a good sidekick to a real franchise player but as the main guy? Nah.

Originally posted by CatchAndShoot View PostWriting was on the wall since the beginning of the season. He was gonna test free agency regardless. What does he have to lose? Potential to be on a contender, and if he stays in NY, they'll still pay him a ridiculous amount of cash.
And what chemistry? We were ranked 28th in overall offensive efficiency. Give Melo the ball, still play elite defense, ECF trips for the next 4-5 years, at the least.
Melo to the Bulls!
did you really just put 'Melo' and 'elite defense' in the same sentence?

i knew what you meant...you need to think about how Melo's 'D' is gonna affect that...team defense is about chemistry and effort...i doubt you guys would maintain your high rankings by acquiring someone not known for playing any defense

We even let Deng go this year, and had a higher defensive rating, and a better record. Thibs is a defensive guru.
