LOL! Carmelo says he wants to test free agency next year

[chubs2496]

Will the hornets and MJ pursue?

Figured it would be a joke thread though. Considering how Carmelo $hit on the nuggets and looks like he may do the same to the Knicks only worse.

Personally I wouldn't want him. Used to be my favorite player in the league years ago when he was in Denver. But how he acted and Denver hell to the no. Your thoughts?

[Mvp2014]

Yeah why not. It would be the first top tier playmaker that the bobs ever had. Its not like we're close to being a contender or anything.

He would never though

If the plan works then we will be a contender in 2 years. If not then your right. But we Been building for atleast 2-3 years now. Add 2 years to that and that's 5 years. If u don't build a team that's able to contend by then you have failed at that particular development. And it's time to start over.

So yeah I feel we will be close next year and the following years. But I would still say no to melo.

Until we draft a great player, it doesnt matter how long we've been building. We need a westbrook/durant type player that can put up 30 pts

U need a good team first and foremost. Monta Ellis puts up 30 a night and he still bounces around the league.

I agree we need a scorer but we have plenty of draft picks available to make this team better and possibly land one. That's all I'm saying

I dont even think 2009 monta ellis averaged 30ppg. Im just saying we need an all-around top 10 player to get past the first round.

[ZackAttack23]

Andrew Wiggins, Jabari Parker...... just saying.

[CarolinaNCSU]

Lakers or Knicks. No other options IMO

[Chaos]

He wouldn't sign here, which would be fine with me - he's too much of a "me first" player anyway.

Yup - no way in hell he would come here. I'm not a Carmelo fan. He's a scorer, but he's also a ball stopper. Typical player who can go off for 40 points any given night and his team still leave with a loss. 

[4Corners]

And by "test free agency" he means find out how much would LA, Miami, or the Nets offer him. 

[carolina-chuck]

I cant see the possibility of Melo landing here, but he sure as hell would be an 'upgrade' over MKG.

 

I get that MKG is still young and all, but he should be lighting it up in both the summer league and preseason which he isnt. I dont care if MKG cant shoot the ball at this time of his young career, but he should be making a damn living of going to the basket which was why we took him no2 overall. He made a living doing that at UK and he's struggling to do so right now.

 

If MKG doesn't improve soon, I wouldnt mind a trade sending MKG to Chicago for a sign and trade of Loul Deng.

We need efficient 30 point scorers not Steve Francis type 30 point games...shoot 35 times, 1assist and 7 turnovers. Sorta the Monta Ellis gmae in a nutshell.

[RelaxImaPro]

I like MKG, but even back during the draft I honestly wish we would've took Barnes with our pick instead of him.  I just think Barnes is gonna be a bad mother fuger a couple of years from now.
