    First you want to go to the retirement home to pick up some players, then some lopsided trade that will never happen? :confused:

    Get outta here. :p

    I'd rather keep TJones and trade DMo+ Picks. Also getting Brewer from TWolves will give us championship bench. We need a 6th man like Brewer. Lin wouldve been the perfect 6th man like Ginobili if he would just be more consistent. He's too nice.

    Seriously? You want a bench of blue haired grandpas. Maybe George Miken can be necromanced to give us 15 minutes off the bench.

    Pretty sure Billups, Camby and Artest will play for discount price to mentor a championship contending team. We need more vets with balls for playoffs. Moreys weakness is having vets wisdom in his team. Outside of stats, young players need wisdom to elevate playoff games.

    *Moreys weakness is NOT having any vets for his young stats constructed team.

    They need to bring in a vet like Ed Reed.

    I figured Lakers will do their best to troll Phil Jackson and take Melo from him. I trust Doc Rockets that we wont get Melo. Kevin Love really is the perfect fit for out 54-win team. Love+Howard on the same rebounding team together is like Moreyball p*rn.

    Out of those four teams, Rockets have the best team to sign Lebron, IMO. If Lebron wants to win, then this is the place to be.

    Have fun teaming with Kobe, their draft picks, and Nash's decaying knees since they won't be able to afford anyone else. Well, I guess they'll have their exceptions.

    Let's call master Yoda Hakeem now for recruiting LBJ. Lebron wants a tough PG, other people in team who can score, and a great Center, which are all here in Houston.

    Melo to Lakers and Lebron to Rockets. The west will go Supernova.

    Would you not want 95 million dollars for playing a game? He'll be set for life with that money and being in LA which will triple that in ads worldwide. Once Kobe retires in a couple of years, LA will be Melo's team anyway.

    Lol, that's what I was thinking too. Of the teams that are in "contention" for his services, who the hell wasn't going to offer him a max deal? What a joke.
