    if thats what your basing your opinion on thats all i need to know. Great logic there

    These were the same guys that got Wright and JJ here. but

    Ariza, Anderson, Green, and Johnson for a total of 3 pts was BBQ offense as well.

    Sounds like we should have paid Ariza 15 million.

    Let's hope and pray that is indeed the case.

    I have never cheered more for Lakers than I am right now.

    I hope Melo sees how much more glamorous LA is. It is going to hard for him to pass LA lifestyle up!

    as if Melo’s 12 points on 38% shooting and trash defense would’ve been so valuable

    good defense is the most important thing against GS...the offense was ugly for most of the series, but the defense was incredible for large portions of that series as well...we genuinely had GS flustered at times

    Did you not read what I responded to your post? I straight up told you I disagree with your idea that Melo couldn't start. We'll see if the rockets go after Melo the 2nd time around.

    Name me one player, that the Rockets can ACTUALLY sign with the MLE or on a minimum contract that would replace Ariza.

    Great logic there -- if that's what you're basing your opinion on you've got a strong argument.

    There is no one. That is why when the news broke that Ariza had signed with Phoenix, it was so soul crushing. There is no one that can replace him. The closest player is likely the Rockets own free agent Luc.

    He'll sign with us because we can offer the same money as LA but offer him a starting spot unlike Lakers.

    Congrats to Morey for finally landing Melo I guess

    Melo is a guy who can help you off the bench. Problem is that he doesn't want to be that guy.

    So yeah, pass.
