    Honestly...as crazy as this sounds, Chriss might actually be a worse trading chip than Melo.

    Sorry I meant to say Chriss with cash for nothing. I posted without thinking.

    Such a great asset that they’re going to release him. Makes sense

    It's Westbrook's fault Melo sucks. He will be huge bigly great here playing next to his friends. Harden/CP3 will get the most out of him unlike Westbrick!

    Well, if he can swallow his pride, he can still be a serviceable player to the dregs of the NBA (i.e: PHX, CLE, ATL). As bad as we all perceive Carmelo to be, he could easily start on those teams.

    Of course he is. At his best, Chriss is not better than Melo's worst. And, at the very least, Melo can at least bring in some fans. Chriss has no name recognition.

    I don't understand all the hate on Melo. He's not a scrub or bad player or whatever. It just didn't work out here. But he can still score in the double digits. Y'all are making him sound like the worst player in the NBA, or that he shouldn't even be in the league, which is absolutely false.

    I want to say thank you to Melo for staying a professional through out his time here. He took the benching then cutting from the team and never said much if anything to the media. I personally wish you only the best.

    Thank you, Thank you, Thank you

    hes been a scrub/bad player for years. in no way is that false.

    what's false logic is being impressed by someone scoring double digits and takes double the shots to get there. its terrible. takes away from better players and he does nothing else on either end of the floor
