They aren't getting by the Celtics this year.
If 'Melo teams with Amar'e on the Knicks, they could beat the Heat next year.
Now, imagine if CP3 goes there in a couple of years, the fact is if Melo-CP3-Amar'e team up, they are better fitting pieces than LeBron-Wade-Bosh. The Magic and Hawks have some nice pieces too.
Would it be funny if they never win? HELL YEAH! There's a good chance that it happens too, especially since LeBron lacks 'the clutchness gene'...
