    Yeah they want Noah though in the deal. I'll be the first admit I hated Noah and was pissed when we drafted him. But his play really changed my tune and Im a fan now. I just dont think Melo and Rose are a good fit I have always been down and Im not a Melo fan at all. I think he is still very immature and the only reason he has stayed out of "trouble" is Billups leadership there.

      If they could somehow "trick" a team into taking Deng.....let them get the trade done. Not sure if anyone would take the contract right now.

        Why do people have this perception that Melo is a bad guy? He's never really done anything negative...

          Since entering the NBA, Anthony has been the subject of numerous controversies. In 2004, he was cited for marijuana possession, after inspectors at Denver International Airport found marijuana in his backpack. Charges were later dropped after Anthony’s friend, James Cunningham, of St. Louis, signed an affidavit taking responsibility for the marijuana. That same year, Anthony appeared in a video entitled, Stop Snitchin', which warned that residents of Baltimore who collaborated with the police would face violence Anthony later distanced himself from this video. In 2006, Anthony’s friend, Tyler Brandon Smith, was pulled over in Anthony’s vehicle and cited for marijuana possession and three traffic violations.Later that year, he was involved in the infamous Knicks–Nuggets brawl during a game at Madison Square Garden. He was suspended 15 games as a result.

          On April 14, 2008, Anthony was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence, after being pulled over on southbound Interstate 25 at 20th Street in Denver for weaving through lanes and not dimming his lights.Police spokesperson Detective Sharon Hahn said Anthony, who was alone in the car, failed a series of sobriety tests. He was ticketed and then released at police headquarters to a "sober responsible party." A court date was set for May 14. The Nuggets suspended Anthony for two games due to the arrest. On June 24, 2008, Anthony pleaded guilty to a charge of driving while ability-impaired. The original sentence of driving while under the influence was dropped, and he was subsequently sentenced to one year of probation, 24 hours of community service and US$1,000 in court costs and fines.

            Out of the league?

            That's a little extreme...

              Consider the source.

              Theres nothing wrong with Melo, he was just your typical immature straight from the hood baller. I think hes matured a lot since cutting off the braids and getting married.

                And he's probably the most charitable player in the NBA, but he has tats so he's nothing but a god damn no-good thug.

                  Melo to Dallas would be very interesting even for half a season.

                  i want to see tht happen.

                    So, Melo is a bad guy because he A. smokes weed [like 90% of the league], B.drives while intoxicated [like 75% of the league] C.took a swing at an opposing player once and D. once stood in the background of a street DVD?

                    OMG! SUCH A BLIGHT ON SOCIETY! THROW THE BOOK AT HIM!


                    Please. Melo is not a bad dude, and he's all work on the basketball court. I'd take him on my team in a second.

                        He's a great player but he's no LeBron, Durant or Kobe.

                        However, with the right team, he could excel tremendously.

                          Melo gets a bad rap...he's one of the top offensive threats in the game. What's to say he's not on the same level as a Durant?

                          I get why of Kobe because of talent + rings
                          and of Bron because of talent...

                              Everyone has their opinion of him, I personal cant stand the guy or any player that demends trades and shit because their team isnt winning or things are going their way. The season starts and the guy is all Denver "this is my team, I never demended a trade"

                              Two games into the season "I want out of here"
