Carmelo Anthony officially traded to OKC

[Deep_Black_Conscious]

Melo fits in great with Westbrook and PG as a stretch 4. He is the perfect stretch 4 because he can spot up and shoot, create off the dribble, is at least a good passer (when he wants to be), and if all else fails a great post up player.

My dad follows Euro soccer religiously but he's been following the NBA more closely recently


He just asked me how he can get rid of his Knicks season tickets

I'll take a few off his hands for the right price, give me more details brehski.

 

[Francis White]

OkC can have that bum Melo. He will coast and underachieve there now. Knicks are going to be way better with him gone.

 

[Serious]

This is exactly how I feel. If they go with Roberson, peeps will just learn to play off him. But with Patrick Thot, putting PG on a 6'3-6'5 dude is like child's play

 

[Da_Eggman]

To dodge being traded after kd left, i never fell for his bs. Its the aame guy who ran ro portland for a max and a trade kicker

Valid point

 

[EnzoG]

The East is pretty much decimated and sent back to the prehistoric ages. Get ready for Stephen A. to scream "JV League" once more.

 

[Real N Quotes]

They traded Hogwash Melo for used byproducts

OKC still ain't got enough to beat GS but I appreciate them going for it

They will if the pick up Nate the Great from the D-League

 

[badtguy]

Okc definitely gonna running shyt

This isn't the NFL where you have 2 solid QBs and it's impossible to use them both. Melo and PG can both catch and shoot, take you off the dribble, post up, and create their own shot. Not sure how having 2 player that can do those things is an issue. If anything it makes them tougher to guard.

Both of them need the ball in their hands to be effective. Nobody has seen Billy Donovan run any semblance of an offense yet and they're weaker defensively.

 

[Rich Spirit]

This gonna be a trainwreck

 

[gluvnast]

that aint funny man

the thunder got PG and melo in one offseason, both via trade, and the only significant piece they gave up was their sixth man

And acquired Patterson to make up that 6th man problem too. Presti is without question best GM of this offseason

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

Sam Presti killed it this offseason

Why can't the Suns do something like this?

 

[Regular_P]

OK YOURE SOUNDING LIKE A CLOWN NOW.

ARTEST IS A FORMER 25PPG SCORER.

ROBERSON GETS ALL HIS PTS ON WIDE OPEN SHOTS, DUNKS & LAYUPS.

THERES MORE BAD TEAMS THAN GOOD TEAMS
AND ESPECIALLY ELITE TEAMS
SO YOU CAN GET BY
UNTIL YOU FACE THE ELITES IN THE PLAYOFFS.

WHY DIDNT YOU MENTION HIS 14% FT?
(3-21)



​

In LA, Artest was a liability offensively. Any Laker fan will tell you that.

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

A lot of these trades go down months before they hit mainstream.

The players just play the game(the media game)

Fronting like they don't know.

I used to know this guy who was banging out Raja Bell's wife(they had an open marriage).

He told me the Suns were trading Raja to the Charlotte Bobcats for Jason Richardson

like 3 months before it happened.Raja's wife was giving up the inside info.

I'm not saying it happens every time, but it definitely goes down like that.

I wish him the best.
