    Finally, here's an example of a post that actually DOES.

    Im a fan of Lucas Nogueira and Bruno Caboclo. Tell Nene to steer his native bros our way! Cheap contracts and sky high potential!

    Im guessing our kid is Capela. He's young, he's Houston's. We never embraced Dekker or Harrell like we do him. Too much unknown to feel one way or the other, but his contract to performance is great... I'd prefer him over a 20+ mill DJ.

    If it is BG, Capela may be the freight for taking Ryno. Cap may be part of a 3 team or a signal that LAC want to clean house at that point and get some assets for DAJ. Maybe it resurrects those Suns discussions. I could see LAC at that point loading up on expirings and youngs for trade bait to begin the rebuild. LAC knew they were going to need West and Doc wasn't up for the job after he already sh#t the bed so bad. There is also likely to be a trade with the Pacers for George. All of these even if agreed to are not final and could all become a simultaneous trade with the exception of the CP3 trade. I think that one went with the league year. It would be best actually for BG if did the same thing CP3 did now and opt in. We get him at a cheaper rate this year with his full Bird rights next year. I would love for tomorrow for George and BG trades to go down and then open up FA with the band together shopping for the MLE, BAE, and remaining NG all while waiting for Melo, Wade, and Rondo to get bought out. Just dreaming but at this point who knows

    Blake Griffin is an enforcer???

    Lol

    Get Serge Ibaka instead. He is a difference maker and can shut the paint down. OKC were stupid to let him go.

    CP + JH + PG + Ibaka + 3 point shooter can go up against Warriors. CP, PG, and Ibaka can make life difficult for Warriors defensively.

    We are not winning against Warriors if we don't challenge them defensively. They aren't great because they score a lot but also because they are very good defensively

    No thanks. Has looked terrible with the Spurs, not a good fit. Kinda like you don't wanna trade with Belichick, if Pop doesn't want him, there's probably a reason.

    Nene, you're terrible and need to improve. How you ask? I don't know, I really like your game and your hustle out there and hope you retire not only a Rocket, but a Rocket who's brought a chip to the city. Love you! Get stronger. But not too strong, because you're quick. Learn to finish above the rim, but no don't do that, you're crafty AF underneath it. Stay and work hard for a chip! Defense! ch chhh! Samba!

    Why get him? He's pretty much a poor man's Anderson. Anderson may be a mental midget but he is a great teammate. LMA is a mental midget and a diva, if the Spurs are trying to dump him the dude is a grade A cancer.

    I like the idea of Serge because he's so versatile. Threes, blocks, some rebounding, consistent jumper, can finish at the rim. I like his game, but worry if he's past his prime.

    I don't think he is past his prime. Just not in as good a situation as he was when surrounded by Durant and WB. Besides our window is only open as far as CP can go and he isn't a spring chicken himself

    Ibaka will thrive in Houston with stars around him. He is one of the best role players in the league.

    I believe he capitalized the M E L and 7. Melo, jersey number 7. The l before the M is a lower case letter.
