The Knicks either had to get rid of D'Antoni or Melo. It was simply a move that had to be done. They are not a good fit for each other in terms of basketball.
In other news, the Wolves, Lakers and Blazers are reportedly in serious discussions about a trade that would send Michael Beasley to L.A., Steve Blake to Portland, and Jamal Crawford to Minnesota.
There might be more pieces in play but these three players are the core of the deal, which multiple sources are reporting as close to done. At face value this seems like a rare trade that will help all three teams in reality.
Beasley would step into the Lakers' SF spot, Crawford would instantly become a reliable SG for the Wolves, and Blake would have the starting PG job back in Portland.
