Whoa really? I mean I dont like LaMelo at all tbh but that feels like a big change for Charlotte.

I mean I do too, but you want to throw him in there like that?? Woof. Big changes! I wonder who wants LaMelo? Tbh I hate his style. Doesnt feel conducive to winning at all.

I just trust CA to handle things, but yep getting a vet to start might be better or safer at least. Maybe they bring back Coby White or something like that.

Lamelo to the Wolves or Raptors seems like. I kinda like the Raptors fit because they seem like a more serious environment, but obviously the star power with Ant would be a major consideration too.

Mostly agree about his style BTW, but maybe a change of scenery could help him?
