    Maybe in the Hamptons. We will have a new Hamptons five. Throw EG in there and we will have a Hamptons six! Or they can do it Barbados and call it the Barbados 6. Lol

    Paul Millsap doesn’t excite me...the only 33 year old, high salary player I want to see added to this team is Lebron

    There's a MASSIVE difference between opting out and taking the taxpayer MLE. Like roughly $22M that Melo would have to agree to leave on the table. (approx $28M vs approx $6M)

    Possibly he does it to try to re-jumpstart his elite reputation so he can get a bigger contract next summer somewhere else, but I'm still not seeing this as realistic.

    Just remember, "The Big Lead" is run by Jason McIntyre. He is a GSW fan boy, and wants LeBron to go to the Lakers. Just remember that context when reading those articles.

    I would say the same and I still lean that way, but his comments make it sound like he isn’t locked in. He repeatedly says money isn’t a factor and you have to assume when he wanted a buyout from ny last year they were talking about this kind of savings

    Makes sense.

    If LeBron becomes a Rocket, the Worriers' reign will come to an end. In fact, it almost did this year. They got real lucky with CP3's untimely injury.

    He also lives in Los Angeles...so there's some LA bias there too

    Can't be any worse than the LOFs. Their residue is still tainting this forum.

    Fans become fans of different teams for different reasons. I never understood the obsession of weeding out "legitimate" fans. You're not better than another for liking a thing you both like a bit earlier. Just buy each other a beer and cheer for the same team!
