And Melos gonna want to stay. His brand and ego couldn't handle being the 2nd or 3rd option on a contender

This whole first, second, third option nonsense is why Melo is lost in the first place. The game of basketball isn't completely centered around throwing the ball at the rim and hoping it goes in.

The contenders he'd be willing to go to have better scorers on their team than Melo and they sure as shyt are smart enough not to take away a strong/defender rebounder for the sake of adding another one dimensional scorer.

why is phil asking melo that?

the question is, does phil want melo on the team?

dis guy with his reverse pyschology bullshyt all the time lol

be a man and answer the question

Dolan won't just let him trade Melo. Only way Phil can move Melo is if Melo demands a trade. Which is what Phils trying to do

Bullshyt stop trying too pass the blame off. Phil got complete control. If he aint want Melo on the team he could easily get Melo off the team. He got 11 rings melo got zero. He would have the media and everyone else on his side. I'm not buying it

Yall want this Melo holding the team hostage narrative to stick so bad. He does not have power and does not cut checks and he did not give himself that contract, not the no trade clause phil did that.

shyt if we wanna be real Dolan was close with JR too more so than Melo. When phil came aboard JR was gone

Basically phil and the front office are hoes and theyre scared to tell Melo to his face that they wanna move on.

I gotta think that other GMs/Team VPs out there are privately or even publicly like

at Phil and the mess he has going on... Which is what really scares me as far as a potential Melo deal... I remember hearing someone on WFAN earlier (I think it was Joe B) saying how before, Phil had been styling on a lot of these dudes, and they're not gonna be eager to help Phil to look good in a potential deal. So either Phil doesn't have a good deal for Melo, or he's stuck with him. And to top it all off, our best bet is to go to Dolan :picard: and ask him to do something.... I always thought it was curious that Phil was hired right around the time that there was supposed to be that rally outside the Garden telling Dolan he had to get out the way.
