Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 974334, member: 652"] Melo signed for 5 yr 80 million in 2007, then he SMARTLY forced the move to the Knicks in 2011 with 1 year left on his deal and got a 3 yr 64 million deal before the NBA lockout. Melo took 3 years ON PURPOSE so he could get another pay day in his prime. Melo is going to either get a huge deal from the Knicks as NBA teams can now only give 1 PLAYER on their team a 5 year contract or he will get 4 yrs 72 million from another team. The Knicks could give him 5 yrs 116 million. I think its likely he takes the Knick money, but if he wants the ring then 4 yr 72 million from Chicago could happen. [/QUOTE]
