That guys is missing a ton with his numbers

He not including the non guarantees that can be dumped with dunleavy or snell for more cap clearing he didn't add that anthony Randolph can be shipped out as well, those moves can get us up to 17-18 mill cleared. He also didn't mention the option of s&t where since the bulls can amnesty boozer and would be under the cap the bulls can absorb more and take on bigger deals, he acts as if you have to trade dollar for dollar when in fact you can take on nearly double what you send out if you are under the cap

Y'all need to be real.Bulls don't have enough cap space to offer melo what he wants and it will take dumping gibson and several other pieces in order to do that which is gutting the squad and leaving you with rose (who's an ankle sprain away from sitting out another season),noah and melo.Sign n trade is the only realistic route and the knicks have no incentive at all to agree to that.Better hope melo really wants to play here and makes a financial sacrifice

I've already come to the realization that we not getting him so its

SO INSTEAD OF GRABBING AFFLALO FOR PENNIES,
SIGNING LANCE,
BRINGING MIRIOTIC OVER
AND ADDING DEPTH WITH OUR 2 1ST ROUNDERS...

OUR PLAN IS TO LOW BALL A nikka WHO IS ALL ABOUT HIS DOUGH?


THE FO HAS KNOWN FOR MONTHS THAT MELO WAS INTERESTED...

THE WORD WAS OUT THAT HE WAS JUST WAITING FOR THE BULLS TO CLEAR SPACE AND HE WOULD SIGN...

AND NOW YOU TELLING ME THEY WONT EVEN CLEAR 20 MILL, LET ALONE MAX MONEY?


SOUNDS ABOUT RIGHT.

Go for Afflalo and pieces and the FO don't swing for the fences....Go for the big fish and swing for the fishes and the FO don't do enough. They really can't win.

having the cap space we'd need to get Melo a max contract would leave us a roster that isn't ready to win a championship.... Again....

We all knew Melo would have to take a pay cut. If he doesn't....He doesn't...
