    Because if such a three way was "almost completed" with NY involved everyone would have the scoop not just an unkown person.

    Don't be dense. The poster was clearly talking about if he has now ruled Cleveland out....which is entirely plausible. Hence him speculating he was breaking the news to Lebron.

    This wouldn't be the first time that's happened. It's obvious that the rockets are working the phones, see Woj tweet. You've been quite the hater lately with @Codman and now this guy.

    ?

    It's not like this deal is all of a sudden likely to happen. It's just a report that may or may not be true that 3 teams are talking.

    Let's be honest, Woj hasn't been the same since moving to ESPN; He's lost a step. Woj has been getting scooped all off-season.

    Dude *** you. Dense? Whats your problem? Coming at me throwing insults when i didnt insult anyone.

    Reports right now all confirm that he is willing to waive his no trade clause for either. Most reports say if bought out he will choose cleveland so he might even prefer them.

    As of right now though knicks get to choose between rox and cavs because he would acceot a trade to either.

    *** off and get in an insulting shade throwing match with someone else you prick.

    Seems clear that some Yahoo sources are remaining loyal and Shams is reaping the rewards. Woj has still been money this past week though.

    Gut instinct tells me there is legs to this rumors after seeing the woj tweet.

    I'm guessing houston is trying to get a draft pick and a 5m dollar player to add to Anderson. Anderson to the blazers which is a good idea. They can win 50 games with him and dame/cj/nurc. No defense at all but they were bad anyways. Might as well embrace what your good at and become a potential top 15 offense of alltime.

    Knicks would get the blazers players and I guess a draft pick from houston and Portland prob 2nd rounders, maybe houston gives up a 1st but I doubt it.

    Rockets get there guy in melo and have a legit big three with the 6th man of the year.

    And if Capela has the 4th year breakout?!?? Watch out, rockets Will be unstoppable.

    Only two minus defender in the 8 man rotation and really harden can play good D when he wants to. Melo is bad but a major upgrade over Ryno especially in the rebounding department.

    Get this done asap pls.

    If your getting melo how are you upgrading from Ariza.

    I mean sure it would be nice but I don't see how that's even possible.

    Ariza when playing only 25-28 min a night is a much different player on both sides compared to the iron man 40 min a night guy.

    If I got cp3/harden/melo/Gordon for scoring with my centers being Capela and nene I'm perfectly fine with Ariza/tucker at the wing as defenders and corner three shooters. They both shoot over 40% from the corners. There fine on this team.

    I am a little skeptical. If the details are just being ironed out like Mr. Potato Head says then surely Woj, Stein, or Ramona would've at least mentioned something about this.

    If he has the scoop before any of them then he should get verified on Twitter and inserted into the Insider Hall of Fame.

    Once again, keep up.

    The poster was suggesting that Melo had now narrowed his decision to one team.

    Previous reports also said trade to Houston buyout to Cleveland. Also Lebron hasn't been recruiting and there is apparent friction between him and Dolan. Melo has 2 years left on his deal. So it makes sense that he wouldn't want to be traded to Cleveland because if Lebron leaves he still has a year left on his deal

    But again previous reports are irrelevant as the poster was suggesting that Melo has now narrowed it to one team.

    Keep up.

    He's a Knick insider. Maybe he's friends with a guy who is involved in the preliminary discussions, I don't know.
