I've decided that it is time for me to give up on Melo. The Kings & Clippers games really opened my eyes.

I realized if this team makes the playoffs, it will be very hard to go far & Melo doesn't want to be here, so why should we want him here. We keep saying we aren't like Cleveland, but the only way Denver won't end up like Cleveland is if we stand up for ourselves and don't let Melo get what he wants at our expense.

I've been experimenting with my high quality scientific equipment (NBA 2K11) and I think the future doesn't have to be dark & in fact it can be very brighter, brighter than Melo's smile.

Starting Line-ups:

PG - Ty Lawson

SG - Arron Afflalo

SF - J.R. Smith

PF - Derrick Favors

C- Nene

VS.

PG - Chauncey Billups

SG - Arron Afflalo

SF - Carmelo Anthony

PF - Kenyon Martin

C - Nene

The first line-up is better for the future, better team ball, more potential.

Arron Afflalo could up his scoring to around 15 - 17 PPG

J.R. could up his to around 20 PPG

Ty would get around 16 - 18 PPG & 6 - 8 APG.

Nene could get around 18 PPG & 8 - 9 RPG.

And Derrick Favors, I think with the right coaching and opportunities could get around 15 - 20 PPG & 10 RPG by his 3rd season.

All while Melo wastes his time in Newark & Brooklyn/Manhattan losing money and not playing as well as he could of in Denver.

I think it's definitely time to give up and move on to the next era of hopefully excellent basketball in Denver.
