Around the NBA - July 2017 Edition

I won't fault Dame, C.J or Nerk if they try and force there way out of Portland. I will not be upset.

They haven't even played a full season together. Come on.

Meyers can be a movie star in LA!

 

[BigGameDamian]

Olshey needs to figure out a way to go after Blake Griffin or KLove.

You're at least always impatient.

That's just a horrible team.... they would get destroyed by the Warriors.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

WTF? There's only one basketball on the court at a time?

 

[Sarni]

That's just a horrible team.... they would get destroyed by the Warriors.

Nah I reckon they would be very fun to watch. It'll be interesting to see where they can get with this. Got to at least give them credit for trying.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Come on Melo, you can't force a buyout... wouldn't his cap have to be stretched on their payroll? Fuck that, at least say trade me to Houston for SOMETHING.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Another one to the Rockets for cash.

 

[BonesJones]

Does anyone have any clue why Houston is trading a bunch of cash for scrubs??

Fill the roster, they're gonna end up moving Anderson+Ariza+Picks for another star I bet. Maybe Millsap?

 

[PDXBlazers1284]

Maybe using them for trade for 3rd star players Melo or others?

 

[BonesJones]

Fill the roster

That can't be it. They could sign minimum contract guys without having to trade cash.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Not Dame & C.J. in Portland?

Can't combine players that just got traded for in an outgoing trade.

When I saw this quote I knew it was you

 

[Dom McBlazer]

I thought Melo wanted to go to the Cavs. Hmmmmm.

Yeah these guys all want to be part of a super team, especially guys who are about the same age and know each other. But that does not mean it will always be a good fit. Unless Lebron is part of the equation. He compensates for a lot of missing parts.

If a GM is making the call on who goes to Houston it has a chance, but if the players are making the call......not so much.

Cowherd was saying Houston wanted Paul George as well as Cp3. Not sure what Houston has left to trade to Indiana.

 

[Chris Craig]

Please let it be LA! Please let it be LA! LA for Anderson/1st Round Pick: http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=y9t7n2vq

They said star

 

[tlongII]

I thought La La said Melo's #1 priority was to be close to his son?

 

[dviss1]

The heart wants what it wants.

 

[Chris Craig]

Looks like Caleb has already been spending time with Aminu

 

[Chris Craig]

Doesn't surprise me. He didn't do shit for the Knicks, in fact I think they got worse actually as he went. Phil should have just stuck to coaching

Phil should've stuck to retirement

It's like you do it on purpose.... C'mon bruh!!

I just don't see how Melo would be a good fit with the Rockets. It'd be hilarious though. Pertaining to the potential HOU/IND trade, literally the only name I've seen that HOU would offer is Eric Gordon. No way would that trade come into fruition. HOU would need to give up more, but I'm not sure what though.
