Thoughts on this; if Melo makes it clear to Dolan before the deadline that he doesn't wanna sign an extension or everyone ultimately feels he isn't worth the $30 mil/yr he's gonna command by opting out, this trade with LA (and they include their 2014 1st rounder).
Logic from NY: at 16.5 mil per, Blake is a good building block going forward, under control and cheap. At worst, he'll put asses in seats. At best, he'll continue to improve his game and we have something. DeAndre, while not an offensive dynamo is a shot blocker and a good defender and again, cheap and under control. Crawford and Dudley are relatively cheap and not that long of deals. Good role players and fillers on the roster.
Logic from LAC: Melo, CP3 and Chandler wanted to play together in NY right? Why not give them that luxury in LA? Chandler is from LA so there's no gripes about moving him and Melo has already mentioned the Clippers as one of the team's he's interested in. More importantly; with Doc Rivers as the coach, they are in an absolute win-now mode for the title. This gives them at least a solid 2 year window with a line up of CP3-Reddikk-Barnes-Melo-Chandler. Felton backs up CP3 and fills in for him now in the interim while he's out.

I hate that "put asses in the seats" logic. As long as we have a good team, people will go to MSG. We don't need wack ass Blake Griffin to get people to come see the game. Knicks aren't a second rate team in a big city like the Clippers were when they needed him.![]()

I don't wanna trade Melo but if it happened this is the kinda deal I'd want in return. Yall sleeping on Blake. This deal is a slight rape of the Clippers.NYC wouldn't stand for Blake getting Z-bo'd at home games.
Yeah cuz our bigs hold it down in the paint...Blake wouldn't help our paint situation.Yeah cuz our bigs hold it down in the paint...
Lol y'all Knicks fans talking bout y'all would hate Blake. Y'all hate every body that's why no one wants to stay there. shyt y'all would be smart taking that trade cuz you crazy if u think melo gonna stay lol
