    None of the stars on the warriors team, and there's 4 of them are pick and roll players, both of ours are. The lack of pick and roll is half the reason why their lineup of death is so effective, they don't need the skillset. We really do. The job of a center on that team is stand in the way of opponents, get some rebounds and put backs, stay out of the way and sit on the bench when it matters.

    Why in the **** would Cleveland trade Kyrie for Carmelo? Unless they can get a multi team trade going where they receive Carmelo plus a bunch of other value, this is nothing. They'll ship Kyrie off to the highest bidder. Until Woj or Potatohead say otherwise I'm going to assume the Rockets are eventually landing Melo.

    Jordan Schultz is not even remotely a credible source.

    LOL at people thinking a Melo/assets for Irving trade is not possible, it is. I'm expecting Melo/Dude they just drafted/fillers for Kyrie.

    If you can't understand that the rest of us are discussing reality and not "if" hypotheticals, I'd say you're the slow one.

    At this point if Melo doesn't come to the Rockets, I'm gonna send my hitters at them

    Melo for Kyrie kind of almost makes some sense right? I'm trying to think objectively here.

    Melo's ability as a shot maker would play well with LeBron's shot creation. They also have to think about the LeBron window. As of now, they've got one season. You can't go trade in Kyrie for future assets. They're trying to win now. What other in-prime player could you get for Kyrie right now? PG and Butler are already off the board.

    Dude, Kyrie has no control! The cavs are going to trade him to the team with the best offer. That is not Melo for KYrie. Maybe Kyrie for Melo and Porzingiz. But Even The Knicks arent that stupid are they?

    If anything this is the catalyst Morey da gawd needed to help construct a super mega deal. Dont doubt the Wizard, i bet you we get pur man Melo and1!

    lol why would Cleveland care about Kyries list of trade destinations? He doesn't have a no trade clause does he? If he doesn't f*** his list.
