Bout to Get Melo in NYC

I really like this trade for the Knicks. NBA is a star's League. Sure, Melo's game has it flaws. But he is a winner. Stone-cold. In the ultra tough West, he made Denver a perennial playoff team the day he donned a uniform. How many players do that? Though he only got out of the first round once, him, Amare, an aging Billups and the bad-ass rookie Fields tell me NYC is back on the NBA map.This was not a Hershel Walker, fleece the franchise deal. Knicks gave up only one pick. As exciting as Gallo, Chandler, Felton trio was, those guys were fitting to get crushed in the first round. Billups is better than Felton, even if just for another year, and Ray was never the long term solution. Mosgov may be a regrettable loss, but that is an unknown. Nothing is unknown about Melo. Now either Chicago or Orlando is going to have a hella fight on their hands in that 4-slot.p.s. With Balkman in this deal, all though Isiah rumors must be true
