    Parker, top(1-3)ppick in 19 draft, shed tons of salary.

    Bulls lost a First round pick (possible 6th pick) and gain additional 36 million salary in Knight and Nene.

    Loss big = gain big

    Bulls lose 60 million (possible 6th pick)
    Bulls gain 36 million salary in Knight and Nene. (I treat this gain as loss)
    Total loss = 96 million

    I know he’s going to go light it up with the Lakers because that’s just how it works, but I swear no second guessing

    Melo demand that the team which trades for him will never waive him?

    Talk to Nets and Bulls, the big markets.

    Yes, that is true. Ennis and Chriss are underachievers on small contracts. DM should try to move either one, if he can't move Melo.

    I don’t think Nunnally will have the problem. He signed a 3 year NG contract with Timberwolves. (Well 350k was guaranteed)

    I mean he is definitely going to release Nunnally first. Only 70k in dead salary.

    But I think Melo gets traded.

    I wonder if DM can get a decent future 2nd round pick for trading Melo. He isn't finished as a player.

    If Morey were good,
    Why not signed House 3 year NG league minimum in November? At that time he and his agent were exciting.
    Whenever you sign G League players, you give them 3 years NG league minimum right away.

    I would be very impressed if he can get anything.

    If anyone can do it, it’s Morey

    I actually totally agree with this point. Of course if a player is starting he is going to think I’m worth more than the minimum.

    I honestly think the answer is Morey was trying to save money.

    Me too, but will the Lakers want Melo that much to give up a 2nd rounder? I don't know. My guess is probably not.

    This Melo saga pretty much confirms to me that Tilman is going to be a bad owner. Complete hamstring on Morey.

    Why can't we waive Melo and sign House
