    Morey is down with a staring contest against the knicks.

    Personally, I think 2 things need to happen for this deal to go down.

    1) pressure before/around training camp needs to build

    2) we need to haul ass and reach 500

    I'd rather have Ryno/Gordon than Melo soooo.

    New York media and fans trying to stir the pot to get something Carmelo isn't worth.

    If they don't take Ryno, then they can go ahead and just buy out Carmelo. :)

    Sure, a buy-out works - - if Melo sez 'yes'. If Melo sez 'yes' then his Bird goes pffft. So, why would Melo agree?

    We only think TA is off the table; we don't even know the shape of the table!

    If they give him a fat sum of cash and the ability to go play with the Rockets, I think he would bite.

    Then we can't re-sign him next summer unless he takes a huge paycut.

    With 50 million in buyout cash, I think we can work something out.

    Just throw in Ariza already. His offense is the worst in the NBA.

    this is the via-media NY clap back from Woj's bit about how the rockets aren't sweating trying to get something done before the season.

    BTW i appreciate that low key trolling from Woj... "the rockets want melo for the playoffs" subtle reminder that the Knicks aren't a playoff team.

    when you start every question with the phrase 'here's a great question for you' it means your questions probably suck. I also hate new York accents.

    Rockets are not greedy either. Knicks are just unprofessional. Knicks front office told Melo and other players involved that Melo is coming to Houston. So this guy can stfu.
