The Nets are %+$*$%% stupid if they are giving up both Favors & Harris in the Melo trade
....do they not realize its the Nuggets that are behind the 8-ball in this situation? Why are they so willing to give up that much?
Ive been sayin a "pure PG" would fit the Nets much better much better than Harris... so even tho he puts up #'s, for Melo, I can see him being expendable... but Favors too? Dude prolly has the most upside from any at the top of the draft, and could complement Lopez perfectly....

Nets would have a legit 1-2 punch and a better than good chance at landing another max player after next year.
Keeping Harris/Favors won't attract a max player at all. They would never get over the hump with that team. Melo at least gives them a chance to attract another elite player while still being enough to get them into the playoffs this year, which wouldn't be a given if they keep their team as is.
Just my .02

I agree. Maybe if there was a way to do it with Harris staying in NJ, then it might make more sense for Melo. With both Harris and Favors out, with Melo, the Nets are probably a 30 win team at most. And, if I'm the Nets, there's no way I even think about doing this deal unless Melo signs an extension first. Otherwise, its completely pointless for them. In he extends, if your the Nets, I guess you figure that Melo and the move to Brooklyn can land you another top FA in a couple years, like CP3.

D.J. Ausgustine would be coming to Jersey...
A lineup of:
Augustine
Morrow
Melo
Murphy
Brook
Is better than what we have now, so its an upgrade that I'll take. If Melo signs the extension, its a good deal, imo. The starting rotation is an upgrade, the only thing is the bench would be on the weak side... Some bright spots, but not a great rotation. I'll still take it with that starting unit, though.

Outside of the:
Celtics, Heat, Magic, Hawks, Bulls and Bucks
You can't convince me that the other East teams are substantially closer to the post season than a Melo-led Nets team. Can't do it.

Pretty sure Melo wants to do more than make the playoffs.

The Nets are stupid unless they get Chris Paul, if they don't get him this is a failure because Melo aint that good.
