Knicks need to trade Melo, there is absolutely no reason to have him. They won't be competing for 3-4 years, trade Melo for some young pieces and draft picks

By the time they'd want to trade Melo it'll be too late. He's got a no trade- he's going to be impossible to move. With all the other stuff he's got going on(branding) he's basically moonlighting as a basketball player at this point. He's in NY to make money outside of bball.

Woj basically said Melo will demand a trade 3 seasons into his contract when he signed with the Knicks, Melo knew he wasn't going to win a ring within 5 years, he wanted the money and if they are not contenders, he will ask for a trade. Watch Melo trade rumors after next season

lol Lakers are not trading for him, they went after him hard and he declined them. They have pretty much moved on and are trying to rebuild with young guys, I can see the Rockets trying to get him

Why not? Rockets are looking for another big time FA, if they can't get a actual stretch 4, Melo can fit in. There are many other teams who would trade for him like the Kings, Blazers, Clippers. He's coming off a bad knee injury too, sell him at high.
