    He's right, Chicago is a better fit for Melo. Take off your Rockets glasses for a second

    Rose
    Butler
    Melo
    Taj
    Noah

    That team goes to the ECF every year and wins the East if LBJ decides to ditch to go West.

    Well if he goes to Chicago, that's one more thing that's on T-Mac.

    Rose can't stay healthy, why would Melo want to waste his prime in Chicago and get nowhere.

    Regardless if TMac is wrong or right, why would he even come out and say this publicly? Does he hate the Rockets organization now or something?

    And stop trying to think another team is better just in the sake of appearing "unbiased".

    This team has the better overall talent, albeit it is young. They have a star that has leg injuries which tend to become more common each time you re-injure it.

    They aren't going to win if Rose isn't healthy.


    But with that said, Chicago needs Melo more then this team does. I'd rather have a defensive specialist on the wing and just rely on even further improvement by Parsons on the offensive end.

    They still have to play the west in the finals. And do you see Rose lasting through an 82-game season + playoffs?

    This is why you never connect TMAC with "success" together.

    First he picks the Lakers to beat the Rockets in the Playoffs, when he was still technically still on the team.

    Then he does this?

    Yeah except they won't have Gibson.... Butler's agent is asking for 12-13 million a year and Reinsdorf won't pay that... Rose is very likely to be a shell of the player he was before and the Bulls are not going to use their MLE because they don't want to get financially penalized.

    So that leaves Noah and Anthony..... Good luck in years 2-4!

    So basically, he says if the Bulls add Melo AND Kevin Love AND if DRose is healthy all year, they'll be a contender.

    That immense basketball talent combined with that tiny, tiny brain -- just makes me sad.

    No way the bulls have a better roster than us but that damn Thibs. Even if they don't get far just the experience of playing under him, hard nosed coach and gruesome workouts will make it worthwhile

    please.


    Rose had one of the most severe knee injuries by turning to run back down the court.

    this wasn't some reckless hopstep that blew his knee out.

    dude can't be relied upon.

    t-mac must have missed the memo on playing extremely hard on defense

    No doubt this team has better talent overall. But that team is better defensively.
    I am assuming Rose comes back to at least 80% of what he once was, he looked damn good in pre season but couldnt finish around the rim in the short time he was playing in the regular season.

    I just dont like the fit defensively with melo in Houston but yes of course im all for him coming here if we miss out on Bosh, LBJ, or Love.

    you guys need to relax, GAF what Tmac thinks sheesh. lol

    What an *******. Seriously. We paid him tens of millions of dollars, praised him to the stars, whether he was able to play or not, and he comes up with this crap. The stupid, ungrateful chump.
