Following potential 2015 draftees

Also, Porzingis was a high level contributor for in a very good league. It's not like he can't play right away.

Honestly New York should be trading Melo. Bring in a haul and rebuild the right way.

I salute the Suns for trying to do this though. They recognize they need to fully rebuild.

Yeah, I would draft Porzingis (or Russel, whoever is available) and trade Melo for more picks/young rookie contract talent.

Yep, Melo has never really helped anybody be a contender and he's nearing the end of his career and just had a season-ending injury, AND is owed a king's ransom for the next 4 years. If anybody is willing to give up major assets for him, I'd get rid of him right away and rebuild around the new assets and #4...

If I'm the Knicks I'm trying to trade Melo to the Lakers for Julius Randle and their unprotected 2016 pick.

Not sure the finacials for the Lakers, Knicks may have to take back some unwanted salary, but that would allow them to tank another year and get what would likely be a late lottery prick from the Laker's next year.

Lol @ y'all hating on a top 5 player in the game

Melo has a no trade clause though lol.

John Calipari said that after watching Trey Lyles, Phil Jackson "walked away saying this is a kind of player who can play in the triangle."

David Locke and Phil Jackson only people on Trey Lyles Island.

Bledsoe and Lyles for #4.

I wonder if we could trade Burks/Burke/12th pick for the 4th pick?

Burke is a triangle type of PG.

Burks is better than any SG they have.

Lyles at 12.

Honestly, in a way, that is better than Bledsoe.

Bledsoe just isn' that good IMO.

Why does anyone believe Lyles is going to be a good NBA starter? I see some role player potential but poor athlete, poor shooter, poor rebounder and no rim protection.

I'd put Melo on 4 times before including him.

It all comes down to do they think:

Burke/Burks > Bledsoe

Burks has a better contract (10 mil a year vs. 14 mil a year).

I suggested a 3-way trade in the Porzingis thread... Knicks get Gibson, 12, and the GSW pick... bulls get Booker our 2016 first and Burke if they want him (id send him to NY too if they liked him... we get Calderon and Porzingis.

Burks is hard to trade because of the injury and his contract is tough for matching purposes since he is base year comp player.
