    I think it's time for Melo to stop being so melo about this situation

    One message on social media could put New York on blast the next 2 weeks. I'd talk **** about how the Knicks say they want you back but remove you from anything promotional about the upcoming season

    Sources: Rain expected to be traded from Houston in a package with sleet and snow to Oklahoma City for draft rights to Tornadoes. Trade imminent. Announcement expected at 5:45pm CT.

    What would y'all think if we traded Harden for LeBron, Anderson and Capela for Anthony and Gordon for Wade?

    P.G. - Chris Paul
    S.G. - Dwayne Wade
    S.F. - LeBron James
    P.F. - Carmelo Anthony
    ..C. - Nene

    Think we could beat the Warriors then? They are all feasible trades especially if Cleveland is concerned about losing LeBron for nothing.

    I'm not saying I would do this because obviously we could get them all without giving up really any pieces but just for the sake of argument, these would be fair trades for all sides considering the circumstances and you end up with a super team anyway.

    Trading young for old i dont think it will help a bit. No we cannot beat warriors if we do that

    I agree

    Personally if Lebron truely wants to have a legit shot at beating the warriors the only place he can really go that gives him that opportunity is houston to play with harden and cp3.

    Him and Leonard could do it but they would still need to add another allstar level player.

    In houston he can play with two top 10 guys with one being an in his prime perennial MVP candidate.

    Houston for winning is the best stop for Lebron if it's about chips.

    Well, it would be a significant age gap:

    P.G. - Paul (32) vs. Curry (29)
    S.G. - Wade (35) vs. Thompson (27)
    S.F. - James (32) vs. Durant (28)
    P.F. - Anthony (33) vs. Green (27)
    ..C. - Nene (34) vs. McGee (29)

    Probably would get run off the court. Gotta have Harden and Capela to one-up them.

    This team, with D'Antoni calling the shots, could out run the Warriors and cause a mismatch. That would be F'ing FUN to watch.

    no, I can't co-sign that

    Lebron can not be trusted. He will leave once it's convenient. Watch him sign a 1 or 2 year deal and then leave if he doesn't win a ring. What would we be left with then? Nothing. We have Harden for the next 6 years. He is our foundation. With him, we know that we will always have at least 1 superstar in Houston for the next 6 years.

    Lebron can come here as a free agent next year or work out some S&T like CP3 did that excludes Harden. Plus, that team of old dudes isn't beating GS.
