http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=z7rco3sSay we gamble this year.....If we do it right we don't have to jeopardize the future do we?
Roll the dice and get some needs and insurance.
Willy Hernagomez "could" be a player.
http://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/2999409/willy-hernangomezJohnson fits perfectly in Brads system and offers some shot blocking.
http://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/3999/james-johnsonMelo and IT are a dangerous pick and pop!
We add an all star, keep our Nets picks.....(if NK just wants to dump him)
Give up Nader and the Greek kid If they want them). Knicks get cap space, some scratchers in the form of second round picks and our 2018 Celtics 1st.
Maybe the Knicks are just happy with a salary dump?
If it doesn't work out, packaging Melo and our Nets firsts is still a hello of an offer. Hes an All Star.
Does he waive the trade kicker to come here..... Clippers, Cavs and Celtics where mentions. Maybe hell pitch Brad this weekend. Lets play Chess and cover our ass. I'm in on it....exciting kinda if you opportunistic.....
Amir could be like our 2008 Perkins type player.........Thats another negative.
Was not interested in Melo before, was scared of the ball stopper, stat losing record Melo.....But IT runs the show...he is our PG.
Gives us two open roster spots......
Gaurds
IT/Smart/Roz
Bradely
Twiners
Green/Brown
swings
JAe/JJ/Melo
Bigs

Payroll 87 9 players plus the (Nets 1st) Zaza (Ko, JJ, Johson, Green)
2018 Cap 109 million....... We could always package our 2018 Nets first and Melo or....... to sign a max player.
