    Unload Ariza?

    WTF? UNLOAD? What's the point of getting Melo if we lose Ariza AND Anderson. Dumbass tweet smh.

    This tweet is serious BS.



    I highly doubt GMs rate players on how attractive they are.

    looking forward to how Ariza will play next season now that he doesn't have to play so many minutes...this report by Jordan Schultz all but confirms that Ariza will remain a Houston Rocket

    One name: Mbah Moute, your starting SF for the Houston Rockets.

    I mean I guess you gotta get rid of Ariza to get Melo...

    But is our team better with Melo or Ariza/Anderson...

    All kidding aside, I can't see a scenario where that makes any sense. Portland's contracts aren't desirable. They're just slightly more manageable than Ryno from a rebuilding team perspective (NYK).

    Besides how awful a Kyrie-for-Carmelo deal is for Cleveland, and how unlikely it is for Carmelo to waive the NTC, and all the other clues... Carmelo makes at least $26M next year. In other words, the Knicks aren't sending out much more salary, if any, considering Irving only makes $18M. The team that would be accepting additional salary would be New York. Not sure why the Knicks would have the leverage, or the desire, to send out random salaries from Cleveland to Portland for their longer contracts... and likewise, not really sure why Portland would want random filler from Cleveland's bench, since they're capped out regardless.

    If there's a third team involved in a Kyrie/Carmelo deal, it's a team like Phoenix that would give Cleveland the younger blue-chip piece they actually want (i.e. Bledsoe). Portland doesn't have that.

    I wish there was a way clutch could have a setting where it would auto block any tweets from this guy.

    im not a fan of ariza, but i would like him to stay just because of his locker room presence..... but if i feel if he is whats holding up a move for a HOF player than hes gotta go.

    Another thing is... If we don't get rid of our NG bros, I think we still can find an Ariza replacement.

    I'd truly be stunned if the Rockets traded Ariza.
