    I didn't say Millsap is done. He is still
    pretty solid, but not worth 30-35 M.
    I don't think he will join the Rockets,
    but I do like him.

    Glad tidings Clutchfans,

    The banana boat party will commence in Houston next year.....

    Wade, paul, melo, Lebron, and paul will all be in Rockets uniform.

    These dinosaurs figured out that it will be the only way of beating the GS warriors in the coming years.

    They also figured out they need a young ALPHA that is among the top 1-3 players in the world, in his prime, with a organization as zealous and a GM as creative as Daryl Morey, to be successful and win some rings.

    I never thought this day would come. I am beyond elated. This is a dream come true, and almost too good to be true. Some pinch me. what are were the chances of this happenings. GOD IS GOOD! LOL>

    Mad Max literally quit on the team when Drexler came. I love Mad Max as much as everyone for the way he played when he was committed but you can't rewrite history and change the fact that he quit.

    Anthony, 33, a 12-time All-Star, "wants to win" and would consider the Cavs or Houston Rockets if he becomes a free agent, a source close to him told cleveland.com.

    The most Cleveland could pay Anthony would be the mid-level exception, though he'd be walking away in this hypothetical with a lucrative payout from the Knicks.

    Harden can say, "he's coach of the year, you should probably listen to him". Also, not wanting Jeremy Lin to run your offense is understandable. It's a different story when Chris Paul and Harden are running the same offense. Personnel does matter.

    MDmA and Melo are men. They can come to an agreement.

    Cavs will tell Melo we can guarantee you will make the finals next season.

    I feel like this would be the Andrew Bogut thing all over again (with, obviously, a much greater prize).

    He'll consider us but probably will conclude the easiest path to the Finals is teaming up with LeBron and avoiding GS as long as possible.

    Hopefully, I'm wrong about that if/when a buyout occurs.

    Agree & said as much in the Codman thread but he hears that 'Melo's first choice is or would be Houston. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I believe you are correct.

    Objectively, I wouldn't blame Melo for choosing the Cavs. The path to the NBA finals is much easier in the east. That is a big selling point the Cavs can make that we can not.

    If LeBron can go back and work with Dan Gilbert then Melo and MDA certainly can make amends

    I already dislike Anthony, hearing stuff like this reminds me why.

    George & Melo are becoming less attractive by the second.

    I think one of Millsap or Lowry is going to Minny very soon.
