I mean after that Mozgov poster (that will never go away for years), Blake kinda deserves it.

If Reke can steal a ROY, why can't Fields?
 
Hey, I got a question regarding trading for Melo. Why can't Carmelo sign the extension on say the last day he's allowed to and then at the start of the new season (whenever that may be), get traded to the Knicks for a trade exception? I believe either the Jazz or the Raptors (or both?) did that when their FA's left this off-season.
 
Remember when everyone was waiting to have meetings with ______ and weren't allowed to say they were trying to sign him?

A week before Melo becomes a free agent, the CBA will end. No transactions, or payments or games can happen until there's a new one. Either he gets S&T by the All-Star break or he leaves in FA. He'd probably still get S&T so they could get their exemption, but it would be under the new CBA, and definitely for less money.

Since he didn't try to trick Denver like Cleaveland and Toronto got tricked, they need to move him. He's looking at it the same way as Amar'e did. Success and marketing money aren't guaranteed, contracts are. And letting go of maybe 15 or 20 million just to keep Gallo and Fields on your new team is hard.

Makes you wish Melo didn't decide to be different and sign for 1 more year than his classmates.

But couldn't he hypothetically sign the S&T today, get his contract guaranteed then get traded to the Knicks at the start of next season for the trade exception?

I'm not really sure how the S&T works (does Denver sign him or does the team that gets him signs him to a new contract), but if he signs it now why would Denver trade him?  Hypothetically Denver can honor the trade, but why help him out if they aren't getting what they want in return.

oh and for last night...

i don't have access to knicks games nor do i follow them, but what pick was Landry Fields? dude's a PG and avg's 7 rebounds per game? WTH? rookie of the month should have gone to Blake Griffin.

Landry Fields was a second round pickup..#39? If I'm not mistaken.. not sure. He plays SG not PG and he was named the Eastern Conference rookie of the month. Blake plays in LA.

I hope that clears some questions up

it's crazy to think that if blake played one game last year we might have the rookie of the year with the 39th pick

was watching around the horn and there was a topic for the knicks on the bottom. then they go to commercial, come back and never do a knicks segment. smh
 
AMP's going to hate me but I just thought we needed to relive this great diatribe by JohnnyRedStorm

I saw that too. I thought my eyes were deceiving me

We probably all owe Landry an apology.

I know I do.

Rautins can still go to Europe where he belongs, though.
 
WOWWW hshshhahahhashahahahahahaahahahahah

just look at all the red. and you still missed two words. but hey nobody knew who landry fields was. nobody checking for stanford. i was also for rautins because i figured we wanted to put another shooter around lebron. i mean ladry who??? at least i had heard of rautins.

but hey the knicks are cursed so we deserve a rookie to cheer for. donnie deserves far more credit for this pick.
