I wouldn't be surprised to see LA make this deal or something similar to it. Their stated goal is to win now, and I can see them sacrificing players and draft picks who don't contribute to immediate results.

Possibly. They need shooters though since they signed Rondo, Lance and Javale. So they trade their 3 shooters for 1 shooter. Granted he's an amazing defender and can really shoot it himself. That said I don't know how they can build a competitive roster with what's available if they make this deal.

They seem excited about Aaron Holiday
Resigned Thad and adding Reke looks like a decent summer for Pacers. Myles Turner has to be more consistent though

I bet McDonough would love to add another small forward.

This might be the biggest no-brainer in the entire history of sports. Do I want to stretch Carmelo and save $100 million this year, check "yes" or "no."

Melo's the perfect stretch 4!

I thought he and D’Antoni didn’t get along in New York?

EDIT: Yep: http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/baske ... utType=amp Well...this would be awkward.

I really like what Indiana is doing; they look like they could be a top-3 team in the East next year along with Boston and Philly.

As for Melo, isn't it a mortal lock that he'll end up on the Lakers? Houston would be interesting, too, but I think given the D'Antoni stuff and the roster/fit, he'll prefer to go to LA.

Kawhi hated him. I think he stays in SAS now...

Tony Parker was not the deciding factor for Kawhi...that would have been such an easy solution for SA

A bit? Shock of the offseason honestly.

Whoa! Did not see that coming.

Yeah that's a big shock
Thought it was play as a Spur til his legs couldn't go any more

He did do that. He's busted. Not sure what he'll contribute in Charlotte.

This has got to be a huge blow to Melo's confidence. I remember when Webber got bought out and was trying to say that so many teams were asking to come join them etc.

Houston seems to be the only team that really makes sense.

I still would've taken him here on that deal as a steady hand, some veteran leadership and give some pointers to Okobo.

I wonder if Ginobili leaves next.

Followed by Pop which would then complete the Spurs demise
