    Pau doesnt even make them close to competitive... why would he factor into the decision? Pau must know that too... Pau can get paid more and contend... it makes no sense for hik to go there

    I hope he goes anywhere BUT NY. Only because that would mean Chris Broussard is right. Ugh, I hate that guy.

    No because in NY $35 million isn't $35 million... It's more like 15

    I think Broussard has legit ties with some the big time players in the NBA. He has no clue when it comes to team activities and nearly everyone else.

    If Melo signs with the Knicks he is a complete moron.

    They didn't make the playoffs last year in one of the worst Eastern conferences ever

    Up and down. Keep your emotions in check.


    If Melo doesn't want to be here, he doesn't value winning so it's moot point.

    We all see where his priorities are. Lala is a huge influence, unfortunately.

    If melo signs with the knicks, then he signs with the knicks. Its no big deal in my eyes. The Rockets gave it a run and now they could move on if he signs elsewhere. It was worth a try, now hope Lebron will allow teams to pitch him on coming to Houston. Its all good.

    I'm not worried one way or the other. If Melo comes here, great, if he doesn't, also great. There's a reason why Houston has the most to offer from a basketball standpoint this off-season, it's because FA's need Houston more than Houston needs those FA's.

    Stars can't win. :grin:

    Take the money - "All about the money, doesn't care about winning!"

    Takes less money - It's somehow "cheating", not fair, not right, not being paid accordingly and the NBA needs to investigate! (Unless, of course, you're the San Antonio Spurs)

    Exactly, just trust the process. We already convinced one guy to do the unthinkable.

    Just as soon as the Mavs create a time machine to where they can get their current players from 8-10 years ago they'll be unstoppable.
