I was just messing around on the trade machine and came up with this trade, which I think would be interesting for all 3 teams (though I don't think NY is ready to give up on Melo)

BOS - Bargnani, Varejao, Waiters, Gee
CLE - Anthony, Lee
NY - Bennett, Humphries, Bradley, Bass, 2015 MEM 1st (from Cle), 2015 MIA 1st (from Cle)

Cleveland would require Anthony to opt in for next year, but goes basically all in and goes for it.  Anthony is the second scorer they need and Lee provides some nice depth to replace Waiters. 

New York saves a bunch of long term cash, gets a prospect in Bennett, a nice young player in Bradley (with no long term commitment), and a couple of firsts to help replenish what they have lost.

Boston takes on some salary next year, but gets a better scoring SG with appropriate size with more long term certainty in Waiters rather than the uncertainty of Bradley.  Varejao and Bargnani fully solidify Boston's interior and provide a nice mix with Sullinger and Olynyk.  While Gee provides some nice depth.
2025 Historical Draft - Cleveland Cavaliers - 1st pick

Starters - Luka, JB, Lebron, Wemby, Shaq
Rotation - D. Daniels, Mitchell, G. Wallace, Melo, Noah
Deep Bench - Korver, Turner

Then Cleveland would have to watch another big name star leave them in free agency. Their fans can only take so much heartbreak.
