    That's an understatement there, there are probably 25 teams who could field better offers for Melo, sure portland may want him, but so do a dozen of those teams. The only reason it comes down to us and cleveland is his NTC, and yeah the likelihood of him waiving it for someone else, especially after what seems like the knicks already agreed to send him to us then retracted it is basically zero.

    Yes his fans are a disease.
    Why would LOFs come back to Clutchfans? They hate Harden , now there's a chance that Carmelo might wear #7.
    According to Lin that was an insult because God gave #7 to Lin for life.

    This guy had two main arguments regarding leverage:
    1) Knicks could just keep Melo, suffering at worse his loss after one yr which would free up cap space - a benefit to the knicks, and
    2) A trade between Knicks and Blazers is simpler and they actually want what they're offering.

    Ok ok, except:
    1) They want some sort of assets back to build upon which is why they want Mo Harkless. Also, even if they did keep him to lose him, Knicks would have to convince marquee players to come to a team with no depth even for the East, and that they don't f*ck up the extra cap space a la Tim Hardaway Jr.

    2) Until Melo adds Portland to his list of NTC waiver targets, simplicity and what Knicks want doesn't mean jack or sh*t. Nor do they have any players included in Melo's wedding party nor guaranteed future hall-of-famers.

    Now I'm done unless this clown wants to spout off more about how he makes more money than other people, how he has on demand tickets to one of the greatest train wrecks in basketball, or about how famous his one-trick resume makes him.

    Lol at the brain part, but not at the "butt master" thing. He's giving us enough in quotable acid trip arguments to have to resort to LGBT knocks.

    So some of what happened seemed to be in slow motion. He came out swinging, saying "okay, if you want me to troll, I will. Here's who I am."

    You could predict that things got really bad after that--both ways.

    DrexlerFan was asking for a fight and didn't care much about the consequences and how he would leave a digital record of his words and actions.

    I think he took the worst of it because most posters still have their anonymity. He doesn't.

    I vote we just ignore him in the future. He wasn't here simply to talk about basketball.

    Lol. Sad thing is I don't mind the Blazers, but I do mind his approach. Coming into the lion's den, then getting all up in a petty bunch bc people giving him a hard time there? He shouldn't be poking the bear when he's that unprepared.

    I'm sure if you pull the IP it was the same address.

    One man, two users.

    I seriously doubt it's truly a blazers fan.

    LOF. I'm sure of it.
