For the second straight summer, the ball is on the two yard line.
Houston is the media’s favorite to land Carmelo Anthony for the second straight offseason, but we have seen this story before. Last season, the Rockets all but traded for Melo in a three-team trade that would have sent Ryan Anderson to Portland and a package including Moe Harkless and picks to New York.
This year, things are different as Oklahoma City is looking to dump Melo’s contract to save over $100 million on the payroll and if Melo were to become a Rocket, it would only be for about $4-5 million.
