Jenksismyhero Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I thought the Bulls already told him he's getting traded or amnestied? I find it hard to believe someone out there wouldn't take a trade for him. He's a big expiring contract. A team like Philly who is going to tank again wouldn't like that?

thxfrthmmrs Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I don't think Melo cared about winning all along. It's either that, or the Bulls' pitch totally bombed. Even if he wants the max or close to the max, the Bulls should be able to accommodate for it, if Melo tells the Knicks he wants to go to the Bulls for the Max. Something like Boozer, Dunleavy, Snell, trio of garbage contracts, and Hinrich (S&T as well) and picks, for Melo, JR, and Prigioni will help the Knicks reload for next year. That would put Bulls at about $77 mil for 10 players. Not great, but we can make more trade to get more further under the tax line. The opportunity is there, if he wants both the max and to win. The roster we have here will be far superior than what the Knicks can build for Melo in the next 2 years. Why he, or anyone, wouldn't come to Chicago, we don't know.

Chris Sheridan was the initial report that the announcement would come through his website but he gave no time. Probballdraft did say 6 est, but that doesn't make sense that's when his dinner starts. Someone else said 7. I don't know it's madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Trade gibson for #8 pick. Use 2 first rounders to trade up from 8 to 6 for Julius Randle. Amnesty boozer. Trade MDJ Rose/Butler/Melo/Randle/Noah Nba2k15 ftw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it hard to believe someone out there wouldn't take a trade for him. He's a big expiring contract. A team like Philly who is going to tank again wouldn't like that? There was an article explaining why it would be better for the Bulls if they keep him, if they don't trade Gibson. With Gibson and Boozer they are at the cap and can use to separate exemotions to sign other players. With only Boozer amnestied they drop below the cap too far and cannot use the exemptions.
