Carmelo Anthony verbally agreed to join the Houston Rockets earlier this week for the veteran’s minimum. This comes after spending one year with the Oklahoma City Thunder then, he was traded to the Atlanta Hawks who bought out his $27 million contract.
There have been very mixed reactions to this news. Some believe the move is going to work out extremely well and Melo is going regain his star power. Others believe this move is destined for failure and will doom the Rockets against the Warriors.
I, for one, believe it’ll be somewhere in the middle. I don’t think Melo will suddenly be a star in this league again.
