    I second that!! There.s got to be more to talk about than the Melo drama & wishful thinking.

    If he comes he comes but until then play the hand we're dealt. :)

    I think the fact that it's still up there speaks volumes.

    I think it says..."Don't do a lot of Melo threads in the GARM"

    Thank you for your responses, Melo does not play for the Houston Rockets. I don't want to look at a Denver Nugget posing as a Rocket. This thread can still go on, just not the picture.

    Melo might be the tenth best player in the NBA. Maybe. If you want to be generous.

    He is not a first tier superstar.

    Another Melo update

    Via CBS Sports

    .

    I think the Nuggets would be dumb to wait until the deadline to trade Melo.

    From a business side, right now you would get the most for Melo because by the trade deadline, most teams will offer up crap for him and from a basketball perspective, it's not gonna be pretty for them either. Fans booing him at every possession, chemistry problems on and off the court as well.

    Best thing for Nuggets to do is trade him before training camp opens.

    Get this done Morey!

    Players definitely better than Melo:

    LeBron
    Durant
    Wade
    CP3
    D-Will
    Howard
    Bosh
    Kobe

    Players who might be better:

    Nash
    Roy
    Nowitzki
    Duncan
    Gasol
    Yao

    This is why people say he's not elite and not a true superstar. Too many players better than him, too many he's roughly equal to in talent. He might not even be a top ten player let alone one of the five best in the NBA.

    Bosh does not deserve to be in that list. Bosh is not even a top 50 player

    No, he's not top 10. But the guy is easily in the top 50. Probably top 20. :rolleyes:

    Of course we want him still. Either way? Love watching whoever plays for the Rockets. Thanks for the updates ASidd_1990 and others.

    I don't know how reliable is it, but it does explain everything.
