    Media would be annihilating Dwight right now for taking so long.

    They annihilated Dwight for how "long" he took last summer.

    In fairness, that was basically 3 straight years worth of the "Dwightmare". The media was really fed up/exhausted with chasing him around.

    They don't have the cap room.

    Given the stiff compeition for Gasol, I wonder what the Bulls are offering him and if they would make a move on him before officially hearing word from Melo in order to jump the market. If they took themselves out of the Melo sweepstakes (and are willing to amnesty Boozer) they would immediately have the highest offer for Gasol, trumping Spurs and Thunder MLE offers, while the Lakers and Rockets drag their feet. They might also see some benefit in it if going under the cap while the market is still frozen would allow them to bring their UFA guys back like Augustin and Hinrich more easily.

    My guess though is Gasol is in no hurry and the Bulls wouldn't want to give up their Melo chance.

    My sources tell me that Al-Qaeda is looking to bust a lot of caps.

    That's actually a pretty fair point.

    Too much of a chucker for Al Qaeda. ISIS, however, is offering Melo the max.

    Its like saying Third Ward isn't hard. It depends on what side you are on. South Oak Cliff is like Third Ward north of Elgin...the cuts. North Oak Cliff is like the nice parts of Third Ward around North and South MacGregor/Brays Bayou and Riverside Terrace.

    Get your work done. Everybody is in a holding pattern until LeBron meets with Riley.

    I think Lebron is putting the squeeze on Bosh. He wants to force Bosh to make a decision without regard to his own decision.

    Do you really think Lebron is leaving? I don't.

    This melodrama is now dull.

    Can no one make a decision without lebrons consent? Grats on Lowry having the balls to do so.
