I think it was 50/50 on what we wanted to do with Melo.Too soon.
He got Melo to stay and I thought that was what was most important (short term) according to knick fans.

I personally did not want him back.

Phil was tryna "con" him into not (for a lil bit) signing so he could do a full rebuild.Melo is about money, he was going to sign here anyways, but he was looking at sign and trade with the bulls. However, Phil told him that they would be viable in a few years. That ain't gonna happen.

Stop with this exaggeration on Melo contract stat made more than dude this year.
Phil was probably sleeping during the lottery and read about their draft slot on a fax the next day in Montana
Dude is gonna leave the Knicks high and dry in a couple years, while collecting 10 mil+ checks along the way

Stat ain't a chubby chucker with bad knees 4 years left on his contract and a no trade clause
Phil stripped the team, gave away Shump and JR for peanuts, they tanked, conned Melo into signing and of the three most coveted players in this year's draft, they are drafting #4

That's not conning someone, that's selling which all GMs do. If Melo really wanted to be in Chicago, he would.Phil was probably sleeping during the lottery and read about their draft slot on a fax the next day in Montana
