Is this a right time to get hyped for Banana Boat Reunion in Houston?

    Chris Paul is in Houston and he's committed to play for the Rockets.

    Melo is attempting to reach a buyout with Knicks, he will get paid for the next season and season after it if so.

    Wade is on a bottom team and he would eventually get a buyout, it's just a matter of time. Bulls are looking to tank badly.

    If Morey would find a way to dump Anderson's contract (which is a hard thing to do, but it's not that impossible), Rockets would have enough space to sign LeBron in 2018

    There was a ton of intel about Banana Boat willingness to take a paycuts to play alongside each other

    Prime Harden + Banana Boat with their experience + 0 state income tax + D'Antoni, who was an offensive coordinator for Team USA, where those guys eventually started to absolutely love playing with each other + Morey's ability to go all-in + Les' love for his stars + extremely high tempo, where everyone would have enough room for their shots = Biggest Warriors Rival possible

    Is this a right time to get hyped?

    No. Wouldnt even sign wade unless its vet minimum at this point.

    I still feel like lebron will see it through in cleveland.

    Wade and Melo if they sign for the vet min or close to that. Would love Lebron but he probably says no to us. Question is can we find a taker for ryno

    We've actually be trying to move away from treating all black people the same just because they are black. That's called being racist.

    That team would still quite easily lose to the Warriors. These olds guys ain't beating GOAT team.

    I feel sorry for you. What an absolutely horrible world you live in. You can't even talk about sports without injecting race absolutely sad.

    I'm not gonna lie. The Warriors would bounce that team in 6 max, lol. If Wade can still even play the season after next I'll be impressed. Okay, not 6. And LeBron is LeBron, beating GSW would be doable. I Just cant see Wade contributing all that much at 37.

    Yes. It'd be 5 game series probably. I think previous years roster would have better chance due to higher variance.

    Yeah and white people die everyday I don't give a **** about them either because I don't know them.
    Don't turn this into a racial thing.
