    stop damage controlling for this rigged nba bro, enes kanter is more horrible contract than ryan anderson. If anything they are equal. The league just didnt wanna approve the trade of melo to Houston, because they didnt wanna upset the warriors dominance in the league. And with ESPN by putting the rockets 2nd in the predicted before the season standings, they are already setting us for the eventual, "why are they underperforming storyline"

    Don't let this distract you from the fact that Sam Presti traded away James Harden in 2013 for Kevin Martin, Jeremy Lamb and a pick that turned out to be Steve Adams.

    They will do very well. Perfect mismatch against the warriors.

    Even if this happens, it would still be ok for OKC since they would've got rid of bad contracts like Kanter and Oladipo...40M in cap space > Kanter + Oladipo even for a rebuilding team.

    Can't blame him..He waited till the minute. SIgning Ryno to that contract was a massive mistake.

    Kanter's deal is not worse than Anderson's. It has one less year, and could be two if he declines his player option.

    Not melo's fault, the NBA didnt approve the trade. we tried since july. and the nba with adam silver blocked everyone of them

    ryan anderson and enes kanter contract are basically the same

    Kanter's contract is horrible because he is a horrible defensive player and plays back to the basket, in the pace and space era,ryan anderson is at least somewhat useful

    I don't blame him, he held his ground for 2 months for us. Ryan Anderson contract isn't going to change

    I guess they would've kept Sabonis & Oladipo if Carmelo trade happened first.
