With Rockets he knows that that mid-range shots are discouraged. Come to Houston then you know to toe the company line. Go to the Lakers if you want to be a free range chicken. Contribute to the hot mess in L.A.....and go to your house. Just know that the Lakers are setting up a Kawhi-LeBron union, in summer 2019, with a bunch of 1-year deals now. Either Kawhi or LeBron will be starting at PF and SF next season. Younger Kawhi has the greater ceiling now. Kawhi gets the nod. Im not buying the “fake injury” thing by Kawhi. Not at the quad and not at the shoulder.
Ask Chris Broussard, a Rockets insider. He was 100% right when he said CP3 and the Rockets had tensions.
Melo will ruin chemistry on the Lakers team. That's fine with me. Houston doesn't need him on the Rockets. TF/ DM shouldn't go after him.
With Lebron starting PF, Ingram starting SF and Kouza option #1 off the bench (How will Melo get his minutes?) And I bet Melo is thinking beyond one year. If and when Kawhi goes to the Lakers there's no room.
the lakers have no chemistry they have a lot of new pieces they will need to figure out how they fit. that said, melo would likely have a larger role here than there. our starting SF left. it makes more sense for him to come to houston. the lakers might still trade for kawhi. if you have bron and leonard, where does he fit ? it would have to be off the bench, which he does not want to do in OKC. i think he will come here. the rockets won 65 games and came within one game of the finals, and in essence, one game from a championship. it makes too much sense for him to come here.
Carmelo lacks discipline and brings no defense. Offensively, he is erratic too, although he can get hot in rare spurts.
Hmm. Reports out of OKC is all the players liked him. No not remember if Broussard was the reporting it, so it may not be 100%.
