    Thanks for the info. You don't ask for a specific home if you're just scouting an area. If he's decided on a specific home that should mean something.

    I'm not wearing out my refresh key but I am checking the garm more this off season than any other in recent memory. I'm not a huge Melo fan but he's a better all around player than Anderson and as long as we're not giving up EG or Ariza I'm good with the move.

    As always -- it's about who/what goes. Who/what comes.

    Checking real estate? Due diligence. At the least.

    you cant announce a trade until the legal as agreed to it and by that time its leaked out hours ago. If they did what you say, it would be anti-climatic since everyone would already know.

    I sell houers
    I'm a Realtor that sells to people moving into the area all the time. U never know what is important to anyone searching. HGTV is fake. Ride along with me for a day or two and you would be shocked at what folks ask for and about. That post sounded pretty legit to me. I knew the agent that "might"
    Have sold Dwight Howard his Houston home or at least showed him houses. I'm also friends with Calvin Murphy's realtor. Unfortunately I have yet to get an athlete or start to sell to yet.

    i'm starting to think Houston and New York (maybe a 3rd team) had an agreement on a fall-back deal a week ago, and were exploring opportunities to get a better deal for everyone involved. And either they succeeded or are close to succeeding getting that done, or not, but somehow I think there's got to be a fallback option. Just seems like the media has been completely shut out (they're just speculating); meanwhile you are hearing a lot more certainty from the players. It just feels like there have been some assurances made ...somehow.

    Woj could announce hours before the presser. And it would be climactic. Because the trade would have happened few hours before the presser

    I'm starting to believe that melo never narrowed his list to Houston or Cleveland. I'm starting to believe he said I will accept a trade to Houston or a buyout and then sign in Houston.

    My belief is that harden and cp3 convinced him already to come and it's a matter of time, "wait and see".

    Imo, The Cleveland leaks were from new York trying to gain leverage. To which Morey has responded with "Nah, take it or leave it" because he knows from cp3 and Harden it's a lock and Cleveland is not involved.

    Essentially, I think Morey has inside knowledge and calling new York's bluff.

    And it's not announceable until call into League occurs.

    When your head (and ass) weigh that much, most floors ARE trap doors.

    The only folks who keep reporting Cleveland are tied to Cleveland (Windhorst, Amico)

    I hadnt picked up on that if true. Possibly just feeding hope to the local fan base, or new York leaked it to the Cleveland market?

    so basically 1 guy who had zero intel on the situation and was just speculating all day yesterday in Windhorst and a fraud with zero credibility in Amico

    That's my take because nobody else is really pushing a Cavs agenda

    probably already been posted but I think marc spears puts it well guys. there's no rush on the knicks part but it'll get done.

    why not take your time and explore possible scenarios for a while. the only quasi deadline we have coming up is training camp. he will be gone by training camp
