    Now that is crazy. As badly as Carmelo played he is light years ahead of Ariza. Ariza is a good defender but defense doesn't help when you can't make a shot in a big game.

    he had 160 mil reasons too...I was never worried about Chris Paul going anywhere

    we’ve lost our 2 best wing defenders, and all those good vets coming here on discounts to ring chase are nowhere to be found

    lose Ariza and Moute, add Melo...what a defensive downgrade...

    Didn't like Houston enough to wait to see if that offer was still on the table in a week or two. Took it without looking back.

    Everyone keeps saying Morey has a plan. Maybe he does, but what if he's constantly being vetoed by a cheap ass owner? We're also playing hardball with Capela which could lead to him taking the qualifying offer and leaving next summer.

    I have a bad feeling Tilman has no intention of spending money on a contender.

    This is an embarrassing offseason. We are not even within striking range of the Warriors now. Letting our two best wing defenders walk? For Melo? Jesus Christ.

    Clippers got so many assets wonder what they’re doing, preparing for a trade probably?

    Lol run it back my ass.

    We lost Ariza and Luc, two players that were integral to our defense which made us great last year, signed Carter Williams who has been a flop so far and are looking to sign Melo who can't play a lick of defense

    We dismantled our team.

    Warriors are laughing at us right now.

    Dude, Melo was pure trash last season. He lost all his seperation abilities tjat made him a decent scorer. He Jack's up **** shots at horrible efficiency .He's had many 2-15 type games. He's a black hole. Ask OKC fans. He sucked balls.

    LOL why is everyone getting up in arms about this? Stop.

    There are other 3/D guys out there for the min. Now it's imperative to add Melo then lure a 3/D guy over. AND lock in Capela.

    If we lose Melo, Capela signs QO then we may be in for a depressing next summer... Now's not the time to panic... IT'S JULY 9TH.

    Season starts in April. Hope for some buyouts and/or a trade using Rockets young players who’ll definitely get some playing time this year.
