If it's just a minimum deal, I'll give it a chance. If he doesn't work out, he can be easily cut off.

I thought Dan Rather was dead?
At even odds, are you taking a healthy Warriors team or the 2019 East All-Stars in a seven-game series?
[Not Andrew] Begley: Warriors. Let's assume that neither Jimmy Butler nor Kawhi Leonard are dealt to an Eastern Conference team, and that Kyrie Irving is healthy. Given those parameters, I'd still have to take the Warriors here because of the way they can space the floor with dead-eye shooters. Also, an important factor that makes this hypothetical tough to answer: chemistry. Unless the core of this East All-Star team had spent the past three seasons playing more than 300 total games together, there's no way they operate with the level of on-court rhythm the Warriors have established.
Forsberg: East All-Stars. Sure, the Warriors have the potential to trot out five All-Stars, but, even in a star-depleted East, the ability to go 13 deep with impact talent would give the East an edge during a seven-game series, but the Warriors would win three games.
Herring: East All-Stars. I don't even know that I have a valid reason for this pick, but it makes me feel better about the state of the league to at least imagine that one conference's All-Stars would be superior to an actual team's starting five. What a world.
MacMullan: Hey now, I love the Warriors as much as anyone, but let's get real. Give me a roster of Joel Embiid, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Kyrie Irving, Victor Oladipo, Jayson Tatum, DeMar DeRozan, Ben Simmons, John Wall, Jaylen Brown, Blake Griffin, Al Horford, Kevin Love, Bradley Beal, Kemba Walker and Kyle Lowry and I'll take my chances.
Pelton: East All-Stars. While the Warriors would probably have the best two players in such a series, the difference in starting fives isn't dramatic, and the East would have an enormous depth edge with the likes of Bradley Beal and Kyle Lowry coming off the bench.

You can only do so much like cheat with your teammate's wife and ruin relations between the team and its current franchise player before your long time and future HoF coach let's you go despite being widely considered as a team legend and future HoF.
I think Melo to Rockets would work. Chris Paul is one of the few players that Melo respects and Paul won't hesitate to ego check Melo to stay in his lane like Paul did with Blake, DeAndre, and Austin Rivers (and we all knew how that turned out loool).

The Atlanta Hawks acquired Brooklyn Nets guard Jeremy Lin in a trade on Thursday night, league sources told ESPN.
Atlanta sends Brooklyn a 2020 second-round pick via Portland and the rights to Isaia Cordinier, league sources said. Cordinier is a 2016 second-round pick who has remained overseas.
The Nets will send the Hawks a 2025 second-round pick and the right to swap picks with the Nets in 2023, league sources said.
The Denver Nuggets agreed to trade forwards Kenneth Faried and Darrell Arthur, a 2019 protected first-round pick and a 2020 second-round pick to the Brooklyn Nets, league sources told ESPN.
The Nuggets acquire guard Isaiah Whitehead in the trade, whom they'll waive, league sources said.

The Chicago Bulls have signed free-agent forward Jabari Parker, the team announced Saturday.
It's a two-year, $40 million deal, league sources told ESPN.
The agreement was consummated Saturday, moments after Milwaukee Bucks general manager Jon Horst removed the qualifying offer on the restricted free agent and allowed him to become unrestricted.
The Bucks weren't going to match a Bulls offer sheet, and the deal -- brokered with Parker's agent Mark Bartelstein -- allowed a good-faith gesture for Parker to sign a shorter deal with the Bulls.
"We really love Jabari and wanted to work with him on this, because we weren't going to match an offer sheet," Horst told ESPN.
