If Melo tries to play hardball and says no extension with the Nets, then I think the Nugs should just hold on to him.

The Knicks deal is virtually nothing, Curry, Fields (nice but nothing revolutinary, especially with our SGs), WC (will get real expensive real quick this offseason, plus doesnt want to be in denver, and Gallo a big white dude who is injury prone, doesnt play defense, and again doesnt want to be in denver).  So hmm fields, i think id rather just hold onto Melo and play the season out.  yes we might get nothing,.

Is that so Bad? Honestly,

Im reaching the point where if Walsh and Melo want to play hardball then lets play.

At least it would send a statement and show other players they we are not here to be dicked around with.

Id rather do that then fold like a wet blanket and give the tampering NYKs melo, give melo his money, and get only Landry fields (after WC opts out next year and leaves) and a lotto protected first.
