All in favor of just getting rid of the entire Eastern Conference?

He was never motivated in NY, he's with two MVP caliber players now.

I'm willing to bet you aren't gonna get the melo from NY.

I always go to Russillo for my leveled headed opinion because I’m way too knee jerk when a big trade occurs

This is going to be so overhyped lol. Melo might not even be a top 30 player currently. He and George both play SF. All 3 are ball dominant. They'll win a good amount of games but I don't find this team scary.

Melo is more of a 4 these days but they could go Russ, PG, and Melo at the 1, 2, 3 if they wanted too


But I bet their starting 5 is Russ, Roberson, PG, Melo, Adams

Won't work. Melo is the most overrated player in the league. One dimensional ball hog with another ball hog in Russ.

Lol I just edited my post to say the same.


I think Melo would be find on offense but on defense is where its going to be a nightmare for him to guard someone like AD, Blake Griffin, Draymond Green, or maybe Paul Milsaps all night. But outside of that do you think he'll struggle guarding guys like Kevin Love, Ryan Anderson, or LaMarcus Aldridge?

Melo defends 4s better than 3s. I don’t think the fit is great, but that’s not my biggest issue.
