    Any team executive that tries to block Melo to Houston is basically working for the Warriors. Period.

    Name me one non Warriors GM that wants to see Warriors win 2-3 more ships in a row?

    Cavs will lose that one too when we offer CC and EGo. Then sign Wade when he is bought out, whenever that occurs. Cousins is our LBJ insurance. Leave him nothing but scraps in the Land. If he wants to win he has to fly south for the winter. If he doesn't want to leave, I can't find a better consolation prize. Love pushes AD to the C full time and his stock has dropped precipitously. That's why they wanted Boogie in the first place. Too bad they are not ready to move him now.

    The Warriors destroyed Cleveland with Love. The Warriors got physical with Love and he disappeared. They can't play that game with Carmelo because Melo will destroy Draymond (or anybody else they put on him). But your opinion is your opinion

    I don't think Melo is too keen on Cleveland because he knows LeBron is leaving and I think Melo is ready to settle down at this point.

    Iggy, Draymond nor KD can do anything with that man. Klay neither.

    Everyone is convinced that Lebron is leaving. So crazy. Can you imagine the backlash against him if he leaves Cleveland again to go form another super team? With the Lakers of all teams?

    not really, he came back and won them a championship. their upper management is a mess and I don't think anyone would blame him for leaving

    He brought Cleveland a championship. He can do anything he wants at this point and they'd still worship him. He owes them nothing.

    CLE IMO makes less sense for him. Likely, Love will need to be involved in that trade. Why would he go there having a better version of himself in LeBron? He will be a redundant piece there.

    At Houston, he will be the missing piece.

    I think melo has wanted to be in houston all along I don't buy the clevland thing.

    First off I can't imagine that love is on the table for melo because if he was I don't see why the knicks wouldn't have made the trade already.

    Second if melo is bought out houston has a starting spot for him they want him, position of need. Cavs I'm sure he would start but him and love trying to guard fowards is much worse than him and Ariza.

    Also houston with melo for Anderson swap is just a better team than Cleveland.

    I love Lebron he's the man but ppl gotta stop with the 7 finals thing.

    Big freaking deal your doing it in the east we're your biggest competition over the last 3 years is Toronto a team that might struggle to get even the 6th seed in the west.

    If the rockets get melo houston is a much better team than clevland. Is also own by a better person and ran by competent people who are very good at here job.

    Does anyone really think houston wouldn't come out the east with melo? I mean I think last years team without cp3 would have had a chance to come out the east.

    East sucks clevland sucks.

    I wouldnt even tra
    I also dont think he wants to play the isolation game with Kyrie. As great as he knows Kyrie is, he knows that he would see less touches.
