(Murphy) “The 38-year-old Carmelo Anthony remains a free agent…But according to a league source, the C’s aren’t in a hurry to make a deal or sign Anthony, and they’re interested in taking a look at all of their internal depth options, including Mfiondu Kabengele and Luke Kornet.”

I would rather not have to trust those two players
celtics know melo is washed
Those two players are worse than Melo tf
Sick so we’re just gonna roll over and accept the lack of a bench shooter
I hope they inquire on Rudy Gay since the Jazz are in sell mode
Offensive cold streaks are back on the menu boys and girls.
There are three roster slots available, and I suppose 4 if they wanted to move on from Kornet’s non guarantee (I think Brad would rather die) I was kind of hoping Brodric Thomas and one of Bruno/Vonleh would look good enough in camp to win two of them and the third one could be earmarked for a vet; whether now or into the season. Gallo’s injury does make me a little more immediately interested in the bucket getters in winter, but it doesn’t seem like there’s a huge demand for their services so I gues there’s no huge rush
Brad please
If i see mfiondu kabengele play one minute where we aren’t up by 40-50 points ima be hella pressed
Does Melo have a huge following or something up/downvoting everything? He’s been washed for the large part of the last half decade, I don’t understand the insane desire to sign a 38 year old who NO ONE wants and is unsigned in September, thinking he’s gonna give u anything positive is a dream
This sounds like posturing from us. Melo probably wants the Disabled player exception and a promise for minutes. We probably don’t want that.
This could just be to get him to accept the minimum and no guarantees role.
We are title contenders, don’t have time for projects players.

I think this makes sense if you take the headline at face value. Essentially sounds like they’re going to give these bench guys a chance to prove themselves during training camp, and then work on signing someone. Filling the rotation immediately with a vet signing might discourage some of the younger unproven guys.
Read: try to increase the value of these players to flip later in the year in conjunction with the TPE for a real impact player
I might get some hate for this one but with Gallinari out with an ACL, Melo isn’t a bad option for a bucket off the bench. Melo could be 50 and still put up 15 from the midrange.
Luke Kornet is one of the worst players in the NBA.
Gotta be honest, I am really excited for Mfiondu to get a shot. I was at Florida State when he played there and he was absolutely electric. He could do it all. Considering his nba history I worry about his growth but he sure can be an exciting player and someone solid off the bench.
The Lakers are desperate for shooting and they didn’t want melo back…
Unleash Sam Hauser
Oh well, I guess that rules out a reunion with the Dancing Bear LOLOL…
I love big Korny but I’m not sure he’s the answer to any question really.
Sam Hauser will get Gallo minutes till juancho tpe expires if he succeeds we won’t use it if he struggles we will that’s my prediction.
As long as Melo can be a team player, and not make up his own playbook on he court, he is definitely worth the vet minimum. Leave the untested bench players for garbage time until they have proven themselves.
Luke isn’t making up for shit lol
How are those 2 supposed to let Tatum rest ? Wtf
if i see luke kornet playing double digit minutes im gonna lose it
Melo is really the only proven player we could get that fills Gallinari’s role that is still available, don’t get why people are so against it
Lakers were shit last year but about 1% of that blame is on melo and he was very solid for Portland before that
We literally don’t have a single backup wing on our team lmao. How does Brad not think that’s a need???
Those guys are centers and Melo is a PF so I’m not sure why this is reported like a this or that.
I’m not against it for the right deal. If Melo can go “off” a few well timed playoff games it’d be worth it.
It’s amazing how Carmelo is seen as the solution to a problem we don’t even have. We have a million talented guards who don’t have enough playing time; how about we just slide Jaylen Brown, who’s a big, versatile wing, from SG to SF or PF, and then we can give minutes to players who are much better than Carmelo? And Tatum can obviously play PF too. It’s beyond insane to have talented guards rot on the bench so that a washed up Carmelo can get minutes
