Melo wants out of NY. What about offering Pierce and the Clips first round pick for Melo? It would definitely improve our chances of landing DH12 in the off season and we'd get younger and would have two decent players to build around this summer with Rondo and Melo. Salaries work. The Knicks don't lose a ton at SF and add a pick in return. Plus, it gives them a little more financial flexibility with Pierce off the books in two years.
