    Trading for Melo would be upping of the riskus profilius.

    Would rather go after milsap though.

    If we can't get a third star I wish we never made the trade for Paul in the first place

    Not until Milsap/Melo are gone.

    I'd consider either solid 3rd stars.

    Why do people want to keep stacking up on shooters? Do y'all want a chance to beat GS or just have a fun regular season? We need 2-way players, not 1 dimensional bums like Korver and Dunleavy that are useless against the Warriors.

    Melo isn't getting a buy out most likely, we can't trade for him if they won't take ryno and he wants to go to Cleveland anyway

    I'm 100% risk profile.

    Trade for Melo then sign Bosh. Doesn't get riskier than that.

    No one left is really going to move the needle at all. I really hope we do get Millsap. But does acquiring Millsap really gives us a good shot at overtaking the warriors? It seems that theCP3 trade moved us from the 3 spot to the 2 spot and that's about it.

    If you believe the experts, still 3rd behind GS/SA.
