    The question I have is why wasn't Mchale with everyone while Melo was here? Regardless of how much truth that NY Daily News article had you'd think the head coach of your basketball team would be there, right?

    Why do you believe he so transparent with you about Kevin Love? What exactly did he say? That seems like a really blunt thing to tell a random fan. (no offense to you, we are all just random fans to him).

    Feeling very positive is a great news for fans.

    LOL, how would he win in Dallas? If he went there and the Rockets did nothing at all, the Rockets would still be the better team. In Chicago, he might get a chance at the ECF or maybe even a shot in the finals because that conference is a joke, but it'll just be him and Joakim Noah and that's not enough to beat any of the top 4 teams in the West.

    Is our starting point guard cursed? can they not stay a starter? brooks, then lowry, then dragic, then lin, then beverly, and now potentially lowry again?

    Because Dirk wasn't notoriously known for choking prior to winning it all.

    Because Derrick Rose has been a model of consistent health.

    Because Monta Ellis is not a chucker himself.

    Because Joakim Noah did not just get molested all over the court by Nene.

    No none of those things ever happened.

    Honestly he could've been joking. Maybe the excitement of actually hearing it come out of his mouth is what got me. And no problem I understand I just wanted to share it.

    Did anyone expect reports that didn't indicate the meetings went great? I'll give you one guess as to how the meetings in Dallas and LA will go...

    Not quite. Dwight was arguably the best player in the 1st round of the play-offs last year. Coaching and inept teammates really screwed his efforts.

    To be fair, I just want to point out that every team "feels positive" after meeting the FA they want. It's just one of those things that people just say. Even the Lakers last year said things were positive with Dwight, despite later leaks showing how it pretty much sucked nuts.

    This. Teams last year the meetings went positive.

    I just hope it's for real.

    I'd like to see some reports after free agent meetings where the source says "Well, we flubbed up the media presentation, and made up for it with not one but two flat tires on the limo"
