I hate to defend Melo because I'm not a fan of his game but really, who here would leave $70 million on the table? I know it'd be hard for me to do that if I were in his shoes, especially considering that the team I'd be joining has a superstar that can't stay healthy and might never be the same player he was. Other than that, yeah Lol @ the Knicks
The Bulls offered him multiple avenues to collect the most money possible from them. He would have left about 20M on the table, not 70M.
Its not about the money though, right? Its about building a legacy and winning. Except when you dont, and then its time to float to the media how you want out
