    I'm told that Lucy Liu is (ahem) pink on the inside. Nice and pink.

    I haven't been keeping up with Carmelo and the Rockets, is this deal pretty much dead? This is a big thread so it makes it seem like it isn't, but honestly I belive that the Nuggets will keep him...

    I don't think anything was ever going to happen until around December at the earliest. Doesn't make sense for the Nuggets, doesn't make sense for some of the teams that want him, especially not for us.

    i got some inside info. fo reel

    melo went to denver org this month and said looked at the trades, he didnt like any of them,because it would gut the following team

    his top choice was nets and requested favors stays on nets...denver refused and is asking for favors...melo declines trade saying "no extension to nets"

    trade gets taken off table

    melo goes on lopez show and says " i want to stay in denver"

    thats code language for "im walking next summer biatch to nets and denver gets NOTHING so i cant play with favors/lopez/harris

    then in 2 years paul WALKS to nets when troy/harris are off books.

    thats the plan..they have colluded. they work for same agency.

    melo told denver to take small packages NOW or get NOTHING next summer...denver thought he was bluffing...he wasnt...denver thought "he wont turn down extra money" ...melo wins

    melo will lose some money by walking, but he knows he will make it up in endorsements,chris paul joining, and extra bootysex from lala


    thats why you see "melo wants to be traded"....."melo wants to stay in denver".

    melo changed his mind because denver is asking to much from other teams..melo walks and denvers new stupid gm gets NOTHING when he could have gotten gibson,or randolph,or murphy instead denver chooses to get nothing

    rockets know this, we dont want to trade for an unhappy melo...melo isnt coming here because his heart is in brooklyn

    i dont see denver trading him to us because rockets HAVE NO LEVERAGE because we cant sign him outright like nets can next summer

    Lucy Liu is a cherry pie! Golden on the outside, cerise (eng:dark pink, french:cherry) inside.

    We've got enough offense with Martin-Brooks-Scola-Yao.

    I'd even throw in Brooks if we got back Augustine.

    Might as well lock this thread. I can't see any scenario that brings Carmelo to Houston. I've thought all along his wife (d list celebrity) was going to push for NY or LA, and that our chances were slim and none, and there's been no news to suggest otherwise.

    We should ask the Bobcats what it would take to pry Wallace or Jackson away from them without giving up our core.

    I'd even entertain Brooks for Augustine to sweeten the deal.

    i agree with acid 1990, gerald wallace would be a better fit for houston and he is defensively more like what RA can use. do we give up brooks? maybe jefferies and hill? sure, i like lowry better anyways. he penetrates better, draws fouls, can guard more of the bigger guards and more importantly he hustles!
    lowry/augustine
    martin/c-bud/lee
    wallace/battier
    scola/hayes
    yao/miller

    The fact that this thread is still open is very mysterious. This is one of the longest running major threads on CFs that's never had a true update.
