    Agree. If he is really trying to get as much rings as possible, I just don't see him going West.

    The LeBron thing is pure fantasy, but I really don't get why people think Melo would leave a non-contender in New York to play for a non-contender in Los Angeles. He's an East Coast guy playing in the biggest market in North America and the Lakers aren't any good.

    Marshmallow and Kobe. What a team!

    Seriously, try to nab a good player in the draft, push hard for Cousins, let Kobe walk and sign Melo. Still wouldn't be enough, but at least it's a start.

    Fat chance. Lakers will continue to be seeing a long dry spell for years to come.

    Melo will not opt out and prob sign on long term with NYK imo. If he ever does changes teams I think it will be to go to the Brooklyn nets. But the dude wont leave the state of New York. He and his wife were both born in brooklyn, NY. Both successful there. They arent gonna move when they can make more money where they are.Wife does have her business in Miami though. be crazy you see him opt out and join LBJ in Miami next season...
