Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 1225307, member: 652"] Melo is going to end up as Bernard King 2.0. This isn't an insult either. The Nard Era was the bridge before the Ewing Era. Melo is a great scorer a la King but he isn't an elite player that makes you an automatic title contender. Paul Pierce was slightly below Melo's level and he needed KG/Ray Allen/young players Rondo/Perkins/vets PJ Brown/James Posey. If Melo wants to win a title it won't be in NY most likely. Marc Gasol is supposedly the Spurs FA target. Kevin Love will resign in Cleveland and that will leave Rajon Rondo. I brought up trading for him so he doesn't sign with the Lakers. None of the picks in this year's draft are instant impact guys like Anthony Davis. [/QUOTE]
