Ok, this is not going to happen, but who wins this trade?

Chicago. By a landslide.

CHI becomes the best team in the NBA for the next 3 years then (in a horrific landslide) becomes the worst. It'd be pretty cool to see this happen though.

Bulls win this deal big time, though I kind of like the return for the Knicks. That's a lot of solid young pieces for an aging Melo. It's the Cleveland return that makes this so lopsided for the Bulls. Butler is a star, but he's not close to LBJ.

One does not simply trade Lebron, especially for that offer. I don't think that is even close to getting Anthony either. That Bulls team would be good as a function of adding Lebron and Melo but I hate Wade and Rondo with them. Lopez is a solid piece but the lack of perimeter shooting outside of Melo would severely hurt this team.

LOL, you can like the return all you want triangle. We all know you are a bulls fan. And we all know the knicks get ripped here.

Melo is so aging that his contract has turned into rather acceptable with the cap boom, he just led the USA team to gold, and finished the year as a clear top 5 wing. (James, Durant, Leonard, Melo, George. no real argument that those 5 didn't have the top 5 sf years last year)

Knicks aren't trading the face of the franchise who clearly has a few more great years left for players absolutely not of need? They just signed Lee. So Valentine is stuck behind that for 4 years. They have Porzingis at the 4, so there goes Mirotic and Gibsons value.

Essentially, they trade for some rotational players and then have McDermott as their 3. That is awful.
