Sources: Lakers, Nuggets talk Melo

<< < (4/5) > >>

Prediction, 'Melo ends the season as a Nugget, this off season, before he can meet with NY to sign as a free agent, the Nuggets and Lakers do a sign and trade, 'Melo to LA for Bynum, Ron Ron and Luke Walton... okay okay, I just threw in Luke Walton.

Sorry, but if you can't win with that lineup, you don't deserve to be an NBA franchise; plus they already have a fairly deep bench.

Take away the fastbreaks, & Kobe & Melo almost equal Wade & LeBron, so technically speaking, it's basically the Heat, but with Artest, Odom, Gasol & a bunch of players Miami would take in a second over who they currently have.

Bus denies it


looks like it's ESPN just looking for a story as usual

Thank you. Like I said, Bynum isn't the ultimate center or anywhere close. Even though he's shown great fluidity in his offense, we only need him for his defensive presence, and that's replaceable.

I think Melo's offense is enough to replace the defense. Melo isn't some "good player", he's an amazing, Top 10 player in the league. Swap LeBron & Wade with Melo & Kobe those two in Miami would be dominate. Adding with who you already have in LA, it won't even be a contest.

Since the Heat went on that run & take away the games the three didn't play together, they are like 28-2 in their last 30 together. If the Lakers get Melo today (for Bynum & not much else), they BETTER, not "should", BETTER lose no more then a max of four games the rest of the season (barring injury or days of rest).
