    You best believe that our season may be over if we lose this game. Clutchfans will not recover. I wish we could of played the Suns or something lol.

    Im starting to lean towards yes. I think that the pressure is starting to build for new york. If melo is still in new york for training camp and taking questions from media members then it could get ugly. You never know with Dolan though.

    I am encouraged by the reports that morey isnt willing to give up too much for melo and would wait until the trade deadline if he has to. I think morey is playing this perfectly.

    This would have been so easy if Morey didn't give Ryan Andersen 20 mill a year

    Yeah. I've defended anderson a lot at points throughout the season but I didnt expect him to destroy his value in the playoffs so much.

    Its pretty apparent that he is overpaid and a bad contract at this point. Hopefully it doesnt end up biting us and morey can still pull off this trade. We are pretty fortunate that melo has been so stubborn in forcing his way to us so far.

    Looks like I need to readjust my countdown clock. Technically, the regular season begins 67 days, 2 hours, 41 minutes, and 30 seconds. However, the only thing that really matters begins in 67 days, 5 hours 41 minutes and 30 seconds + probably 11-13 minutes till the game ACTUALLY starts...oh but wait, we are on the back end of a double header and we all know anytime the Rockets are the second game on a national tv schedule, the first game inevitably will go into triple overtime and we won't see the first half...anti jinx?

    You have to overpay him to not overpay some other just another guy 15 million, who's actually worth 3 million.
