Like if we can get back a player like McGee, 1st round pick, and Rashard Lewis's
expiring, Maybe also one of Jan Vesely, Chris Singleton, or Nick Young. This would possibly leave us 2 FA's next summer and the addition of McGee,
1st round pick, a rookie SF, and a SG/SF in Young.
So all we need is Dolan to buy the Wizards so he can trade Melo to himself!
All joking aside, if we can trade Melo for these kind of assets, it's a no brainer - you do it. Since Rashard's contract isn't an expiring though, I'd want back another first round pick. So, 2 first round picks, Javale McGee, Jan Vesely, and Rashard Lewis's non expiring contract. This would take us out of the Chris Paul sweepstakes but if we can keep Chauncey I don't think it's a huge loss.
Rose is not the answer.
