    There's a certain 99er who still criticizes Morey for not matching that offer

    I just want resolution to all of this. Is Melo coming or not? I don't think it's really good for team chemistry in the off-season. I hope this all gets decided soon.

    Don't know if this has been posted on this thread:

    But I'm a member on a Texas longhorns forum called "orange bloods" one of the posters started a thread saying there's more smoke to Melo coming to Houston, because LaLa is reportedly looking for houses in Houston. Here's the exact quote:

    Thread title: "More smoke on Melo Anthony"

    "LaLa has been house shopping out in Greater Houston area..."

    As soon as I saw that thread I came over here to see if someone else is reporting the same

    LaLa has pubicly said that she isn't moving with Melo, though @The Cat did indeed get the scoop that Melo's camp is looking into houses in the Houston area.

    La La could just be looking to invest in real estate with some of her Power money?

    You don't have to pay him under the table, if you market him into a Chinese-owned Rockets team. He already gets crazy endorsement revenue, but our popularity in China would only benefit any new Rocket.

    I'm not advocating in ANY WAY for Chinese ownership of the Rox, but financially that could have a tremendous value to Rox players.

    I'm hoping Texans buy the team, but in either case there will be additionally marketing opportunities for Lebron in China.

    There was a time where Carmelo would waive his no-trade clause for ONLY Houston and Cleveland. Now Houston is way in the lead and the Cleveland landing spot has "conditions" now. This is a nice development. Carmelo just needs to remain firm in his stance and wait our NY. Once NY comes to their realization of the inevitability of the situation, they will make the trade and move on with their season.
