    Yet, Drexler said it was clear from the meeting that he "just wants to win"

    Having the max isn't the kicker to leaving NY. The kicker is not getting that final year. One or two million more a year isn't much of a difference when it comes to walking away from 30 million. I live in DFW and let me tell you that people here have their heads in the sand when it comes to how the rest of the league views the mavs. They think every free agent wants to come here.

    ESPN just reported that Kobe won't be attending the meeting today because Melo is going to meet with the Knicks right away. I think Kobe knows whats happening and doesn't want to waste his time.

    Calm down man. This isn't to insinuate that he's coming to Houston. Just that a deciosn from him has probably already been made whether its us or not.

    Grease lightning is paving the way for Sandy..... Not only to impress her with its good looks and speed but to prove that winning the race and winning her love is what truly matters. Then again, he better shape up... Cuz we need a man and our heart is set on you....

    Lol this shat every year. Melo is done in New York just as Dwight was with the Lakers. It's either Houston or Chicago.

    Which is exactly what I'm implying. A decision has been made.

    I'm not near a tv, so Kobe flew all the way from Greece to just get here and decide to pass? I thought Melo was meeting this morning too?
