I think NY may ask for Capela, and a 1st rounder as a price for taking Anderson, I hope DM will hold steadfast and try to make the Knicks to yield to a less favorable deal for them.
Knicks have NO real leverage to negotiate and ask for that sort of deal. Clock is ticking for them. If no teams are willing to trade or provide what they want, then they will have to simply buy him out to unload him. Everyone knows that. We'll just wait it out. That's the way I understand it. If they cave to a buyout, he's a FA and can walk to wherever he wants to go. Knicks FO certainly not in an enviable position. Of course, we would, in turn, have to move Anderson to accommodate Melo if he comes here. It's a chess game and Morey is a master.
Glad someone caught that. I recorded right after we got the news of the Chris Paul presser at 2, then uploaded it... only to find out minutes after uploading that the presser would be part of the "event" at Toyota Center. Facepalm. So, yeah. I see you, Les.
