What happens with Carmelo now? :jbhmm:

[Mr swag]

Can they refuse?

Teams aren't forced to make a player under contract be a free agent

Nothing, he plays his contract out and joins a contender in 2019-2020

Melo was very athletic in Denver and had a quick bounce in NY even after the added weight. He doesn't have the same lift anymore. It's very noticeable when he's under the rim now

Melo never had bounce on the Knicks. I feel like once Melo lost the braids and gained the baby fat he was never quite the same athletically, you have to factor in injuries as well. Melo lost his bounce after '08 season.
