Hope they got him. I'm tired of hearing about this...

How does this get him closer to a championship?

It doesn't. They probably still miss the playoffs.

after they get him they should just bench him for the rest of the year and tank to try and get a top 3 pick

That article says the Nets are giving up FOUR FIRST ROUND PICKS. Holy crap. And Favors and others.

I'm just not feeling it.

Chauncey's got what? Couple years left of high level (relatively) ball?
Shelden Williams has already been called the worst player in the NBA.

And Melo, while a great scorer, can be seriously questioned about how far a team can go with him.

Per Melo-there is no meeting with the nets

jesus christ

I still don't see why the Clippers aren't involved.

They are in LA. (See LaLa for why that's important)

They own Minnesota's and their own #1's.

More assest than the Nets, Knicks.

I don't get it.

This would absolutely destroy the Knicks fans.

Four first round picks is just never a good idea...

I don't see them as being able to compete with the elite in the Eastern Conference. They are still not as good as Boston, Miami, Chicago, Orlando, or Atlanta.

I really hope the Nets get him. Anytime the Knicks lose out on anything it makes me happy. Not to mention that the Knicks give the Bulls a lot of trouble when they play and Melo would give them the big time scorer they are lacking

Does Melo play for the Eastern Conference in the All Star Game now?

More assest than the Nets, Knicks. I don't get it. Bill Simmons has written several times about why it would be a more desireable destination. I think you can look no further than Donald Sterling as to the reason why.
