Once Carmelo Anthony trade rumors came out, writers had to speculate. The Grizzlies were mentioned as a potential destination. Would Melo to Memphis work?

When discussing Melo trade scenarios, CBS Sports and FanSided both mentioned Memphis to be a possible destination.

So, our writers Parker Fleming (@PAKA_FLOCKA), Blake Meyer (@buhhlockaye), Jackson Munyon (@jackson_munyon04) and Jakob Eliason (@jakobeliason) give their two cents on why a Carmelo-to-Memphis trade may or may not work.
