    Dangerously close to a championship sounds good to me... I'm not greedy I would take just 2!

    This feels like when the big 3 went to Miami and started posting a bunch of cryptic tweets/insta posts. I think we're on the verge of building a superteam.

    Wade bought out and signed for the minimum?! Absolutely Wade would fill a need. More scoring and championship vets. I would love Wade.

    Yup, it's happening.

    Can't wait to se Lebron, Paul, Melo and Wade taking a big paycut to play together...in Houston :eek::cool:

    At this point in DWades career he would probably be one Of the best sixth man

    But obviously Eric Gordan is younger and is a better three point shooter so he works for us

    I hear you. Got some good points there and the youth aspect makes complete sense. I have gotten so use to the Knicks being the Knicks that they won't know how to handle the situation.

    Why can't you add to existing Melo threads? Why many new attention seeking Melo threads are you guys going to make? Are we going 100 more Melo threads if he decides in August?

    This. What's so appealing about a bunch of 34-35-36 year olds past their prime?

    And any potential paycuts? Forget about it. Did you just see Chris & Dwyane congrats James for getting all the money?

    True. Lebron and Wade can then leave after one year and join us.

    I don't think any player deserves a season ending injury in a playoff game.

    What did Rondo ever do that was that dirty? I don't recall him injuring anyone and I used to watch Rondo all the time. He was the most exciting player for me to follow (other than goran dragic) during out 14th overall pick years.

    I never cared about celtics and only cared about rockets but I absolutely thought Rondo was must see TV so I watched him.

    Athletes that rely on athleticism at this age can be a problem. I wouldn't put any of are our stars in that category, they primarily use skill and deception, also the occasional acting job

    I see a very possible scenario of:

    Trade for Melo

    Wade gets bought out and signs for the BAE
