foeteen14 Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Josh Smith and Marvin Williams for Carmelo Anthony Our Big Three goes from JJ, Smooth, Horford to JJ, Melo, Horford bibby JJ Melo Horford ZaZa or Whoever we can get out of free agency and resign Chillz I don't want to trade josh smith and i probably wouldn't for anything (that's my heart talking, give me a break, he's my favorite player, on my favorite team, in my favorite sport), that being said, that line up looks pretty healthy to me, and you get bench play from chillz, law, zaza, or whoever we pick up in FA. I know thats a lot of money tied up in three players (about 45mil I think), but that's life, you gotta pay the cost to be the boss. plus you're going to have to pay smooth anyway, and marvins payday is coming up. why not have another legit superstar.

frosgrim Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 No way. That is way too much for Melo who's a nice scorer but nothing on defense. Add in that he is immature and tends to pout. Smith is already more mentally tough than Melo and plays significantly better defense. If we are going to trade Smith then we need a good big in return.

foeteen14 Posted June 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 melo is a bonafied superstar in this league, he's young too. this trade takes so much pressure of JJ to do it all. I can just see woody's two man game fitting this 2 perfectly. joe working off of melo, melo working off of joe. we know what joe can do by himself, but we don't know what joe could do with another elite scorer on the team. i think it would pretty good. yeah we lose on Defensive, but hey, you lose some, you win some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I feel you on that he has some character issues, I know he would get in trouble in a city like Atlanta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swish Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Nah, wouldn't do it. First off Smith is too good defensively. I would go for Marv/Bibby for Anthony, but still I think he would get arrested within a week in the ATL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foeteen14 Posted June 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 but you guys would take artest. come on. some of the trade that are proposed here are absolutely foolish. this actually makes sense. and with bibby as potential trade bait or just coming off the books the next year it makes even more since, because he could actually fetch a pretty good big man. look at the trade from the outside, not just in hawksquawk world.

Moreover, Mello's attitude and maturity is a major no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foeteen14 Posted June 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 smooth's attitude isn't so hot all the time either. he's just one incident away from becoming an "i told u this guy was trouble and we should have traded him" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachx Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Quote: but you guys would take artest. come on. some of the trade that are proposed here are absolutely foolish. this actually makes sense. Well Artest could be had for just Marvin without Josh Smith. Artest would not be the face of the franchise. He would just fit in and play a role. Carmelo has issues. A DUI the night after a game a week before the playoffs ? You honsetly want that being the face of the franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EazyRoc Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 I'd much rather get Ron Artest for less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris18 Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Smoove and Marvin is way to much to give for Carmelo. Although Carmelo is a very good scorer he can't play a lick of defense and would wind up in more trouble than he has been in Denver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ring leader ? C'mon man. He wasn't the only one in the stands, so I think everyone involved should be seen in a similar light. Also, I haven't heard anything negative from Artest since. He's not a "franchise destroyer" like everyone wants him to be, but he's far from an angel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cwell Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 somebody 6'8" a good 220-230 pounds running from 5'9 lil Nate? hell nahhh lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris18 Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Ben Wallace was the ring leader of the Brawl at the Palace. Carmelo slaped Nate in the face and ran away but Ron went into the stands and beat the hell out of the guy that didn't throw the beer at him.

foeteen14 Posted June 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 like i said in my original post, i probably wouldn't trade smooth for anything, but the hawks with melo, jj, and horford, win 50+ games next year. and in the east get a top 4 seed, lets see what we get with smooth and marvin. i love them to death, but there's no doubt where a better team with melo next year at the same price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
