NFT: Predicting where Carmelo Anthony will end up

Earl the goat : 5/28/2017 10:02 pm
Draft is 25 days away

Here's one option that makes sense

Knicks Trade
Carmelo(waives his NTC)
Courtney Lee
8th pick in 2017 draft

Sixers Trade
Jalil Okafor
Dario Saric
Justin Anderson
2 of the higher second round picks 2017

Knicks get salary cap space and 3 young players to build around
Sixers get a veteran post up player that can score and be a leader for a young core group of
Embiid
Simmons
Jackson. Drafted this year
Smith. Monk. Ntilikina One of these drafted with the 8th


Melo gets to stay near home and a chance to help turn Sixers around

I'd trade Melo for the most draft picks possible
Melo

is NOT going to waive his NTC to go to the Sixers. Ridiculous.
Knicks-Clips-Celts  
PhilSimms15 : 5/28/2017 10:57 pm : link
How about Melo to Clips, Crawford and an LA second to the Celtics and the Celts send Crowder, Rozier and the Clips send their 2021 first to Knicks.
I think LA  
Phil in LA : 5/28/2017 11:49 pm : link
Boston, Washington, Sacramento and Utah. And anyone who has 2 first round picks.
The Clippers

Doc is the only guy crazy enough to give up half decent assets for an aging, overpriced player in a futile attempt to win now. And Carmelo would probably waive his NTC to go to LA on a team that has zero chance at a championship but should compete a bit.

I could see Dallas getting involved just because of Cuban but I can't imagine Melo wanting to go there.

Boston will have zero interest in Carmelo unless they strike out both with Hayward and on every other trade front. Even then, I can't imagine them giving up anything more than something like Crowder. If they even gave him up. You're better off just keeping Crowder and his nice contract than going for it next year with Carmelo. He doesn't put you over the top.
I predict LAC

for hot wet garbage.
Sacramento and Utah?  
arniefez : 5/29/2017 7:42 am : link
Seriously? The two least desirable cities in the NBA? I'll be shocked if he agrees to leave for any city. But 0.0 chance of either Sacramento or Utah.
My fake Porzingis trade sends him to the Sixers

Yuck!
Hard to predict where Melo goes  
giantsfan44ab : 5/29/2017 10:10 am : link
Still Don't know where he's open to going. Toronto would be a feasible one, they could cut down their tax bill by trading JV , Carrol, Joseph + picks/young players for Melo + KOQ.

And again -- Melo is NOT going to waive his NTC to go Toronto.
Washington  
Archer : 5/29/2017 10:22 am : link
Washington needs another scorer to compete with Cleveland.
I like Carmelo on the Wizards.

Washington has the assets to make a trade.
Draft picks + Bogdanovic, Jennings, Mahinmi
for Anthony.

Why?

Why would the Knicks ever do that Sixers trade? Melo/Lee/8th pick for Saric and 2nd rounders? Makes zero sense.
