    If you hadn't posted the second tweet you would have won -- +1 for effort.

    It will be a great signing if Melo accepts the 6th man role.

    He has to, even if it's like 11th man role. This is like literally his last chance.

    He'd be happy if he could crack the 8th man role.

    The worm turns. When he had his no trade clause, I remember when POR wanted him and he said he wasn't interested in POR.

    POR is looking for a spark and I imagine he looked good in his workouts but I would think the odds are stacked against him making through the entire season with them having not played an entire season.

    I don't get this signing at all. The blazer's issue is defense and Melo can only make it worse.

    Why not 4 year $90M guaranteed deal?

    Maybe the plan is if the team continues to suck they can now use Melo as a scapegoat.

    Portland has no good 4s, Melo may end up starting at some point.

    Rooting for Melo, he's a great person. But this Portland team is pretty bad this year.
