    Morey is useless in chasing free agents without Coach McHale.

    That's why Rockets keep McHale.

    So basically he will only visit out of respect for McHale. Meaning no chance he will sign here.

    Damn.
    There goes our chance of getting Melo.

    Oh well. The off season hype was fun, I knew I should have never gotten invested into it...

    Not sure how reliable the source is, but if that's true, then Melo ain't coming.

    New York Daily News routinely makes stuff up. Literally makes stuff up.

    Melo to Houston confirmed.

    I call bullshvt. Not because it's preposterous that he respects McHale (see Parsons/Dwight), but because our situation is so much better than your average available max FA destination. Every FA would at least give us a look if we were interested.

    Wait just saw it was it was NYD. Anything coming out of NY needs to be taken with a grain of salt.

    It is Mitch Lawrence but...

    ...but like I was saying, I guess they should target the REAL number one option, Kyle Lowry. :)

    Who's not much a guarantee himself.

    C'mon, NYDN is a rag.

    If, that's even paraphrasing Melo....I'm sure Melo said it as a a positive and East Coast bias turned it into a negative. Think about it..Who stands to lose?

    Just chillax all you Chicken Littles ....It's ALL good.

    I told myself not to buy into the hype too much. Hate that I didn't listen! If this is true there's no way we get Melo.
