Tell me, do you think Carmelo would have been able to replace the total production Deng, Noah, and Gibson give you over the course of a season?
Because the Knicks have done SO WELL since they made the deal.
Yes. I believe Carmelo could score 36 points and grab 22 rebounds a night.... Easy.
Ok... Lemme jump back to a reality-based argument. I'd have no problem shipping out Deng and Gibson in a heartbeat if it meant getting Melo... If I'm giving up Noah as well, I'd have to get a vet bench big, or a high 1st round pick in return.
I'd maybe hesitate for a second on including Noah, then I'd WAKE THE FUCK UP and realize Derrick Rose, Carlos Boozer, and the most efficient scorer in the league (Who can also grab 8-10 rebounds a night if need be) in Carmelo Anthony are on my home town team. #Win
Someone who has a superior talent to put the ball in the hole at 6'8" tall (24.9 career ppg) is SOOOOO much harder to find than a young big guy who can be taught defensive footwork.
