    Toooo bad BronBron doesn't have a nuclear weapon aka NTC as Melo does. His agent apparently knows nothing about his rights.

    Of course it is a pipe dream. Which is why it had all the emoji's. But it would be funny nonetheless... If it happened, Morey would find a way to make it work.

    Lebron has a NTC.

    He does have the ability to lower his value some by saying he won't re-sign with any team he's traded to outside of Houston.

    Makes me wonder if it's about the Cavs possibly signing Rose and taking Kyrie's minutes.

    Lebron signed a 3 year deal last year with the 3rd year being a player option. He is under contract in Cleveland this coming season.

    Meeting was 2 weeks ago. Rose is being looked at since they would no longer have Kyrie and who knows what they are getting in return from San Antonio but, whoever it is, probably is not as good a PG as Rose.

    New York was one of the four teams Kyrie wanted to be traded to... could be a Melo interception by the Cavs if they trade Kyrie to NYK

    Irving requested a trade
    Preferred destination: NY, San Antonio, Miami, Minnesota

    I guess trading Irving to NY for Melo make sense

    Not for the Cavs straight up. Talk about a significant downgrade.

    However, maybe the Knicks through in picks, their own young players, etc. and maybe the Cavs can expand a 3 team deal to pick up someone like Bledsoe along with Melo.

    Cavs can get a lot more than just Melo for Kyrie but this does worry me a little.

    Great Kyrie Irving just told Cleveland he wants to be traded. I can see this somehow screwing us.

    Not sure Melo would want to play in cleveland with Bron and Love. No balance in that lineup.

    Rockets could use this trade to facilitate the Melo deal
