Knicks/ Blazers

To NYK - Crabbe, Turner, Harkless, 2019 Lottery protected 1st

To POR - Melo, Lee, Thomas

If what Lillard and CJ said yesterday is true, that Melo is interested in the Blazers, let get this done.

Knicks get younger (24, 25 and 28), get a second unit ball handler to take pressure off of Frank (Turner), a younger 3 and D guy (Crabbe) and a hard nosed SF who gives more D (Harkless) .

Blazers get another star, an older but still effective 3 and D (Lee) and a depth SF.

Salaries are within $1M, and that's including Melo's trade kicker.

NY is giving better player. Portland needs to add swanigan and 2018 2019. Melo will not go to Oregon. Not happening.

I like this trade

This would make Portland a contender. C Anthony's still a great player and he has some good years left.

And NY can rebuilt around Porzingis. That's a good return with usefull young players and a future asset.

Shizzee, you're pushing it with asking for Swanigan and an additional pick. Knicks don't have a tonne of leverage, which is why getting younger players and a pick a win.

Lillard and CJ won't be adding Melo to the team simple as that.
