If the lakers were stupid enough to trade a top 4 pick in this draft for melo I would gladly oblige them (They are not going to do that), because as you said melo ain't getting any younger and if you could turn him into Mudiay or russell, and draft towns with your pick, you got a good start and you got 50 Million in cap space. Admittingly I know you would trade anthony for a box of balls, I would need to get russell or Mudiay back for him (Hence a top 4 pick), otherwise I'm keeping him, because 1 pick would not be enough for him in my opinion if we are looking at somebody like Winslow who I like, but that ain't enough unless more picks are coming back. Mudiay or russell they can have anthony. They get the 3rd pick, and want anthony they can have him. I'll take russell and town and that is my start to building the team in my opinion.
