NBA News: Carmelo Anthony to Washington Wizards Roster Would Be a Game-Changer; Wizards Should Take Chance on Anthony over Kevin Durant

It has been known that the Washington Wizards has been chasing and looking for an opportunity to take Kevin Durant with them. The Wizards is on a campaign to make Durant play for his hometown, but still a chance of being successful with the "#KD2DC" campaign seems to be very low at the very moment; especially when Durant expressed via espn before that;

"Any good thing takes time. In this league, we always talk about windows. You usually give teams two or three years. This is what you have for two or three years. If you don't get it done, then you're moving on. A lot of the good teams in our league, they stick together, keep fighting and keep building that chemistry and experience together."

Getting Durant to transfer from Oklahoma Thunders to the Wizards seems to be very challenging and unyielding. That is why some experts would suggest that Wizards should take a chance on another NBA star for boosting their line-up. ESPN senior writer Zach Lowe via washingtonpost stated that;

"Washington Wizards: If the Wiz decide that snagging Kevin Durant is a long-shot play, they could chase a sure thing by offering Nene, Otto Porter [Jr.], and two first-round picks for Anthony," Lowe wrote. "But they're all-in on Durant, and don't figure to change course."

Targetting Melo instead of Durant would is somehow feasible, especially that "Anthony is aging, but Kristaps Porzingis is a worthy building block to center few roster deals around," said washingtonpost. If the Wizards would take hold of a star player like Melo, it would really benefit the team. According to washingtonpost;

"Anthony is a better player when next to a solid, pass-first point guard. With Allen Iverson, it didn't work because there weren't enough balls on the court or shots to take with two volume shooters sharing the floor. But by allowing John Wall to potentially become a better distributor and freeing up space for Bradley Beal to dribble drive, from an X's and O's standpoint, Anthony could unlock the offense tremendously, whether playing small forward or sliding into the stretch-four role."
