Is we didn't trade for CA, we also would not be in the position we are in now
We would have plenty of assets on 1st round picks, 2nd round picks, that were traded for CA and forced us to overpay for talents in

1- Carmelo Anthony

CA ( 2 Golden STATE 2nd round picks, 1 future 1st round pick, and possibly 1 swap)
add in the values of
Felton which was traded for a 1st rounder and Andre Miller
MoZgoV
Wilson Chandler/Gallo
AR (was able to net us back a 2nd round pick at the time of the trade)

2- Felton

Felton ( 2 2nd round picks)

3- Camby

Camby ( 2 2nd round picks)

4- Anthony Bargnani

AB ( 2 2nd round picks and a 1st rounder)

5- In addition to signing Kidd/Pablo and MWP, which wasted our MLE for 2 consecutive years, JR Smith was signed with the room exemption, and was underpaid for a couple years as a Knick
I hope he regains his physical abilities in addition to the skills he had shown as the 6th man of year when we had Kidd, winning the Atlantic with 54 wins in the season
His physical abilities are a big part of Smith's game, with Rebounding, initiate the fast break with rebounds or finish on the fast break, he also needs to regain the speed/quickness/shot selection/ ability to facilitate

He has a player option for next year and likely will do everything he can to come in camp and ready to contribute away, rather in the past coming to training camp while not in shape

Why dude? Can't you start your own ****ty thread to revisit the Melo trade? This is my ****ty thread about amare and bargs turning down money to basically both end up playing overseas for peanuts...why can't i have pretty things?

What if you are silently killing me? You are like a tobacco manufacturer in this piece.

if we just amnestied amare and did not do the fukkin bargs trade then we could have built a damn good team.

Or we could have eliminate 37 mil off our cap as well as CA and built all our assets back up within 2 seasons with the cap space.

No, then your aunt would have a vagina with balls instead of ovaries. You're missing a part.

Ummm, you don't happen to have a clown suit in the back seat of your car, do you? Yikes! You be one scary dude.

+1
And we would have saved money on fire extinguisher glass and medical costs.

I did buy into the "this Bargs guy kills us, and he could spread the floor on Hibbert, and he's an upgrade over Novak, and who cared about QRich..."

Somebody has gotta lighten up the mood. Sound like a bunch of law school drop outs in here sometimes

You're mean. I don't like you anymore.

Never managed to get to law school. I did score a 151 on the LSAT though. That's a fact provided just to dispel the myth that I'm actually a 6'7" crack baby with an IQ of 85.
