Melo Traded To OKC

The Knicks fan base in NYC, and the ones abroad who think they are, are not going to wait. Which is why Phil had to sign him to a max contract to appease the stupid NYC fans. Unfortunately NYC will stay in this ever ending cycle of fringe playoff talent until the fans stop trying to dictate how the team is operated.

Upside is the Knicks now just need to trade Noah. Maybe package him with Enes or McDermott if possible for a pick or some young talent. They could still be playoff contenders (not champions though) this season and go for picks this next draft and big signings if they pull that trade off.

Wish Bogut had been signed by the Knicks this season. Can see him being a handy veteran and future big man coach. He would've surely helped get the young guys a bit better in the post.

They wouldn’t be able to rebuild while he is there. They can fully start now. Either big signings or through the draft. Can the New York fan base sit through a rebuild though ?

Yeah a good deal for okc. Gonna be interesting to see if PG and Melo will be happy as 2nd and 3rd options. For mine Melo is well suited to that role, its just a matter of him owning it

Zinga and Enes have played predominantly power forward over their careers. They'll work out the rotation pretty easily.

Loving these gunslinging teams like Houston, LAL, Minnesota and now OKC. Should be one hell of an offensive spectacle on a nightly basis

Also. Creates a logjam at Center maybe for Knicks. However Porz, Willy and Enes roatation could be amazing

When will basketball release a clear vision and direction on where it's going.... If you don't know where you are going how can you get there?? Clubs and associations in particular need higher level direction so they can plan their strategy.

Sponsors want to be associated with organisations with a clear vision and direction.

Some examples...

- Pro/Rel
- Domestic association models
- Facilities
- SASI/NITP
- NITP delivered thorugh associations and schools
- Use of technology
- Integration with NBL/WNBL
- Etc

What has Wayne Carroll done since he's been in his role????
