    Just knowing what I know, Chase has to be right about Melo. If Denver refuses to trade him and he gets down to the extension deadline, he'll have to really hate playing in Denver to give up the extension money and go into free agency under the new CBA. He's bluffing now and he will fold when the time comes.

    With a new cba and what its expected to entail, he would be losing at least 30%, maybe more.

    Sounds like Shane's giving Bud the hookup.

    He's probably right about Melo but he has no insider knowledge. For one, the deal hasn't even been made, no one knows inlcuding Melo atm who it's going to shake down let alone a random bench player from a team that's probably not even going to deal for him.

    In any case it's good that Bud thinks as he does. A young player going into camp doesn't need to be thinking about trades or anything but giving his all for the team he's currently on.

    But how is it that you know more about basketball than the coaches and players? :grin:

    I could be wrong, but I don't think he will fold. I think he has a strong desire to go back home and play on his own big 3 team assuming Paul joins them. And if he is committed to the marriage, he will want to keep his lady happy. He can get some of that money back in endorsements that would not get in Denver.

    Sounds like Shane is pawning his wife off to Bud so he can go after another chick.

    The only reason he says Melo isn't coming is because he knows that he will probably be included in the deal, and probably doesn't want that to happen.

    He's probably right, but anything can happen.

    Who doesn't like the Pearl Bar? It's a cool place, especially the part in the back, spacious open area.

    I think none of you mentioned that he would get way more money by signing the extension cause of the new collective bargaining agreement which is bein talked bout. Salaries will be lower so he could sign a deal now to ensure he gets big money.

    Maybe they missed on purpose so they could shoot from close range later.

    Pearl Bar will always occupy a sore spot in my heart for being the shallow replacement of the awesome gutterbucket bar that MJ Fat Cat's used to be. It definitely fits the bill as the kind of cornhole establishment Budinger and Battier would frequent.
