Rockets trade Lin and Asik to Boston for a low 2nd round pick (celtics have cap space). Rox then have the cap space to sign Melo and Knicks get Zilch!

That is possible.

You know what if Boston makes a trade for Love they should also do this deal. Asik is the defensive big Love needs and you have Lin coming off the bench or at the two guard.

Yeah but does Boston want to pay 30 mil for the right to have a back up for Rondo and Asik for a year?

who coaches the Houston Rockets again?

The key players involved would be Bledsoe, Lin/Asik/Parsons and Melo. I would love the Knicks to get Bledsoe and a draft pick or two. Houston would love to get Melo I'm sure so they are happy. The question is what do the Suns want? They have Dragic so Bledsoe should be somewhat expendable no if they get a package they are happy with?
Rough outline for tradeL
Knicks get Bledsoe, Asik and 1 first round pick, and a 2nd round pick
Houston gets Melo
Suns get Parsons and Lin
Suns might be interested in Chandler as well and maybe additional draft picks and a few more players added?

In principle I like it but there is a great deal of risk in assuming Eric Bledsoe on a big ticket contract. The guy has been injury prone in the past and there won't be much left here to justify the expense. All in all, I like the principles of the deal if everyone stays healthy.
