Let's start out by saying this is a PROPOSED trade, though incorporating elements of recent rumblings based in solid league sources tying Carmelo Anthony to the Los Angeles Clippers (and not that unlike something proposed by us a few weeks ago).
A Carmelo-for-reserves deal makes the Clippers far too top heavy. Here's an alternative idea: give more to get more. https://t.co/JomBwQjw3p
The details would see Avery Bradley and Melo sent to the Clippers, Blake Griffin and Paul Pierce to the Boston Celtics, and Amir Johnson plus Jordan Crawford and the 2018 Celtics, 2019 Memphis Grizzlies, and 2019 Clippers first-round picks.
