    When it comes to third options, I think the difference between adding a Milsap or a Lowry, instead of a Kevin Love is not going to make as big a difference as you apparently do.

    I look to Miami and how little Bosh is used, and I wonder if they wouldn't be better with a 10 million dollar PF, say a David West, and a guy like Asik, instead of a third max player.

    I am very much pro Melo despite his age. He has shown no signs of slowing down and frankly I think he is much more versatile than Kevin Love.

    Yeah I really just want lowry AND Millsap. I think those two would level out that starting lineup perfectly and they could both be reasonably had.

    How are they beggars when they have 6+ teams willing to offer packages of picks and young players to get Love?

    Screw you to whoever banned my old account thats been a member since 2009 for having a simple prank that Kevin Love will become a Houston Rocket and I even posted McHale+Love, Harden+Love Olympic team... SCREW YOU. Member since 09 and banned for a great obvious Theory cause Love is McHale's and Morey's Model PF to be with Dwight and Harden.

    sorry bro that you got your account banned, but if it makes you feel better. Rep is meaningless and majority of moderators are well "perfect."

    to be honest who cares make a new one, troll harder. Enjoy yourself, be yourself, I thought it was funny

    I think one of the good things about having Rondo over the other two would be it allows us to keep Paraons (hopefully) and gives us much more flexibility with the cap and roster. We could use the MLE to sign some needed vets.

    If we sign Melo outright we won't have the MLE. Not sure NY is willing to go S&T route.

    If I'm the Magic, there's no way I pass up on Vonleh to trade for Lee. Do I need Lee also? Maybe... who knows? Is there some struggle for the Magic to be relevant next year? Obviously you want things to pan out... but I'd ratehr just take Vonleh, stick with Afflalo, let the young guys grow a bit more, be in line for another solid lotto pick next year, and then grow from there with Oladipo, Vonleh, Vucevic, your 15 lotto pick as the young core.

    Maybe too long of a "turn-around" post Dwight? But Oladipo is as solid a pick as you could get out of last year... his rookie stats aren't all that different than a DWade's rookie stats for instance, I think Vonleh can be great, and 2015 is supposed to be another strong draft. It's the nature of rebuilding... it will take a few years till you know for sure whetehr you are stuck in crappiness (hi Kings, Bobcats, etc.) or moving towards something real (Thunder, Grizzly, etc.)

    Enough Magic talk...

    Point was, David Lee shouldn't have a ton of trade value, imo. Yes he puts up great stats, but so did Rudy Gay... his teams got better every time he left. And Lee might be a nice expiring contract... after paying him $15+ one year and part of that th enext before trading it.

    Dude this is the internet. People read CF, and it gets documented by Google within hours. Mods don't want this place being a source of false information, I'm sure.

    Charming name by the way. Are you a Rockets fan?
