No thanks. We already have one cancerous chucker (Jamal), we don't need another one.

Nothing in the article indicating Melo was the source of any trade request.
More like completely made up speculation by writer.

To the contrary the article says he never even considered a trade. :lol

Can't stand MarshMello but this is click bait Fake News.

[StrengthAndHonor]

If I'm Doc Rivers, I would be on the phone right now talking to Phil. I'd offer him Blake Griffin, Reddick's expiring and our 2021 1st round pick unprotected. My only request would be to include Porzingis in the package.

It's more than fair. With Melo's NTC, the Knicks are stuck with his salary, 4 more years.

And it's Sports related which is the worst of the Fake News.

Dude is 32, he is in the prime of his career. Knicks are going nowhere, but he seems to care about money more than winning. Cavs are not gonna trade Love or Kyrie for him, Clippers would probably trade Griffin for him. He is stuck in NY with that contract unless the Clippers want him or he gets bought out (it will never happen).

It would never happen, if Doc could make that deal happen, he would probably be at Phil's front door on his knees begging him to do it (lol). Knicks are keeping Porzingis, they have a future star in him. Crafty 7'3 guys like that don't come around that often (he reminds me of Dirk a bit).

[Raven]

the guy never learned how to defend or play non iso bball. he has very little value to a contender.

[DJR210]

Crazy that such a bad ass city is such a terrible professional destination because of shitty ass management. Phil Jackson just does not have the vision or the basketball team building IQ to operate in this position anymore. Who in their right fucking minds take two pieces of shit off an already bad team and plugs them in around Kristaps and Melo and expects that to be enough to compete w/ Cleveland? Not only takes the two pieces of shit, but gives one a 4 year 72 million dollar deal w/ absolutely zero trade value. That piece of shit Noah must have cracked up laughing for a good 5-10 minutes when his agent informed him the Knicks were offering a 4 year deal worth 72 million.

[Chillen]

Both the Knicks and the Bulls have plenty in common, both have no vision. Bulls are better run imo, but I am not surprised that Noah and Rose are taking the Knicks nowhere. They as players peaked in the 2011 season. Phil has made some poor choices as GM but he is plenty better than Gar, I'd rather have him as a GM tbh.

[AchillesHeel]

He might as well retire then, because no contender wants a piece of him.


Isn't willing to take a step back to let the younger players grow

doesn't play defense

costs his team close games with his ISO ball

He still thinks he can play like his prime self but he's far removed from that and it's obvious. He was never that athletic but he had some speed and some lift on his jump shots, now he looks like Kobe after his achilles injury, just sad to watch.

[DMC]

I'd trade him to Charlotte.

Sounds like a perfect fit for the Lakers tbh

Lakers made a huge mistake jumping the gun and signing the all-star duo that is Mozgov-Deng, Melo would have taken them over the hump, tbh.

Blake and Reddick is a deal... No Porzingis tho

[apalisoc_9]

He was mad because Porzingiz took the shot instead of him.

A very pippen like moment :lol

I would waive his ass if it was me. Send a message.

[Kawhitstorm]

Blake and Reddick is a deal... No Porzingis tho

Why would Doc trade ReDick when he's their only CONSISTENT 3 point threat?:lol

The deal would be something like Blake/Pierce/Johnson for Melo/O'Quinn: http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=hdfq5zp

[Clipper Nation]

The sad part is that GM Doc might actually be dumb enough to trade Blake for that loser Fatmelo.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if all the "trade Blake" nonsense over the last few years has been drummed up by Choke-P and his entourage. It's all a very convenient distraction from his long resume of playoff failures. And then when the Clippers finally cave and the team gets worse without Blake, then he can move on to the "supporting cast" excuse for his continued choking.

[Leetonidas]

Lol at the idea of the Clippers trading Blake for a far inferior cancerous player

[Gummi Clutch]

This dude is one of the biggest losers in the history of the league. The fact that he will probably be a HOF player is nauseating...he is anything but.

[Chillen]

So would any of you do this trade if you were RC and Phil was high?

No.

Green is too valuable.

[Chillen]

Well if Melo wants to go to Cleveland they would have to give up Love, which I wouldn't do if I was Griffin he is a big part of that team. Unless the Knicks will take back Shumpert and Smith, lol, it ain't happening unless the Knicks buy Melo out and he goes to Cleveland that way. I really hope the Cavs don't do that to KLove, he really helped them win that 2016 NBA title vs the Warriors. If it does happen, Love is a great return for Melo. I don't see the point in breaking up a proven NBA champion team for Melo.

[MI21]

I really hope the Clippers trade Griffin for Melo :lol

Yeah, that would be a ridiculous deal to make for the Cavaliers. Now that Melo has lost his first step and also can't finish inside, his offensive game doesn't look nearly as dangerous. He was always a chucker but now it's just really ugly.

Love is the far better player and far better fit.

[SpursforSix]

So we lose 2 starters for a back up? I'm usually for any trade that involves shipping out Parker. But they'd have to start Murry and Mills as the PG and SG.

[TDMVPDPOY]

melo getting traded to clippers, isnt KG a consultant there? ...lol melo cuck

[jeebus]

If I'm Doc RiversThen you're a failure of a father, the most overrated coach of the last 20 years, and soon to be hands down one of the shittiest GMs to walk the planet.

I really do hope Cleveland is smarter, why trade for him when he could get bought out and come to you. Phil wouldn't trade Melo to an Eastern Conference team anyway, it would be Melo for Clippers scraps. I hope even LeBron values KLove and he is now a big part of that team.

Doc Rivers handed his son the second richest contract in the Rivers clan:lol He made millions and continues to milk a Billionaire by "failing" to do his job. Sounds like success to me tbh.

[StrengthAndHonor]

Blake and Reddick is a deal... No Porzingis tho
Then there's no other reason to even discuss any sort of deal. The Clippers are taking a huge gamble by absorbing a malcontent. Porzingis is the only reason the Clippers would even take this "rumors" seriously.

If the Knicks are stupid enough to include Porzingis with Melo for Blake/Reddick, if your the Clippers you do that deal. Melo for Blake/Reddick, not worth it for the Clippers.

[LittleCriminal]

Crazy idea...
Anderson for Melo
Have Melo come off the bench for the Spurs.

Melo for Clay Thompson

Do It Mitch!!!!

Backtracking like he just threw a sucker punch.

[phxspurfan]

With the CP3 injury, as the losses mount... if Griffin returns and the Clips don't start winning, Ballmer may ask Doc to explore Griffin for Melo. It gives the Clips a go to guy and a chance to preserve their playoff seeding, and gives CP3 that much more reason to consider staying after this season.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

No.

Green is too valuable.
Kawhi and Anthony are too redundant.

[Chillen]

Kawhi and Anthony are too redundant.

I'd trade Gasol and Green for Anthony and Porzingis, pretty sure RC would to.
