    I'm a big time Carmelo guy but If the knicks are smart they should throw money at Lowry and see if they can compete in a watered down conference. Rockets need to go young at sf

    Meh.

    Anthony would play the 4 in Houston and defensively he should anyway.

    Anderson is moveable, his contract isn't great but he is still useful. The issue is moving his contract and giving the Knicks what they deem useful enough to move Anthony.

    Yeah you all fatsos with no basketball knowledge to stick to egg ball - the unathletic fake tough guy sport played by 350lb obese fellas. I know you and bobbythefail like that "sport" because the players resemble you in weight and unathleticism

    They would probably want us to take back noah if possible. I would take lee from them but it seems like they like him.

    I didn't think Ryno was a terrible signing when we first got him, overpaid sure, but we needed to make some kind of moves and everyone expected the cap to skyrocket further...but damn he doesn't really bring much other than shooting, and when's his shots aren't falling he's a complete detriment to the team.

    Didn't think his contract would be untradable, but even the kings said they wouldn't take him for free. Stuck with an albatross on our roster that no one wants...f'ing sucks

    The problem is there will be offers for him after free agency, but right now everyone is trying to deal.

    I know right?

    Harden could get nut cancer too and having only one nut could destroy his jumper.

    Ariza could get hit by a large boulder lobbed by an angry Nene who hasn't gotten over not getting his 4th year guaranteed.

    I have no dog in this fight but what is the rationale of your resentment towards football?

    You ever heard of Andre Johnson or pretty much every wide receiver, defensive backs and linebackers? Find me one obese example of that bunch.

    Those in those positions at least are fine tuned athletes with incredible physiques to go along with freak athleticism.

    If you want to call a typical O-Line player "fat", well at least aesthetically it makes sense. But to generalize all football players are fat, that's just blatant ignorance it seems.

    We're getting Melo for sure if his wife gives him permission.

    Clearly you havent watched nba basketball outside of anaylitics & boxscore. Apparently stuff like team chemistry isnt a factor in your world of NBA 2K
