What the hell? There was like, 23 pages of this thread yesterday...

They merged that thread with this old thread.

So true:

That show got an incredibly long run out of a combination of nut shots and bride falls on ass (falls off altar, falls on dance floor, skinny groom drops fat bride on her ass. etc.).

I guess some things just have timeless appeal. Personally, I prefer my humor a little more sophisticated, but the people have spoken!

And for their second title*, Kawhi and Parker were hurt.

But they also had Nurk and Davis hurt when they played Portland. The Warriors have yet to play a really tough series in the last few years other than the Finals they lost.

I had a dream that we traded Swanigan, Davis, Harkless and a 2nd for Melo last night. But then I fell off of a castle and died. So, kind of hoping that doesn't come true. Although after dying, I was reincarnated back into my 15 year old self and got to relive high school. That was interesting.

...Hasn't it always included the Cavs? lol

Told ya we shouldnt get our hopes up...

Is there something discouraging by this report? I don't see it.

 

[Gronk Brady]

If Melo goes to Cavs, I think Blzers end up with Love... and Cavs can completely clear salary if LeBron leaves at end of season

Carmelo Anthony, a 10-time NBA All-Star, has delivered the New York Knicks an expanded list of teams -- including the Cleveland Cavaliers -- with which he'd be willing to waive his no-trade clause, league sources told ESPN.

After the Knicks insisted that they were unable to make a deal with the Houston Rockets, his primary trade destination, Anthony and his representatives honored New York's request and furnished at least two more teams within the past 10 days, league sources told ESPN.

Woj says one of those teams is Cleveland. Woj conveniently leaves out the other teams. I wonder why that is hmmm I wonder.

Am I crazy for reading that as "he expanded his list - which includes the Cavs."

He wrote it very.... strangely.

Story linked says at least 2, one of which is them.

I agree, when I initially saw the tweet, wondered, is that more than one then? Or is it Houston and Cleveland.

 

[Gronk Brady]

The real question is, if he expanded his list 10 days ago and Portland is on the list... why is he not in Portland already?

 

[Scalma]

Woj being secretive about the identity of the other team(s) leads me to believe it's Port hey happy Friday!

 

[Scalma]

Olshey is gonna finesse a first round pick out of New York on top of Melo.

Because NY is trying to get the best deal possible for themselves, and so while they might like any offer we have to them, it's in their best interest to try to drum interest up from Cleveland to see if there is a better deal to be made. Maybe we see leak the other day about him coming here to not force Houston's hand, but the hand of Cleveland(and whoever else may be on that list).

Would explain today's press conference.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

So we're going to get Melo and Lebron! Christmas in late September!

We have to be on that list.

 

[Nhawz]

It said on the radio, a Houston deal will not happen. Hahahahahhahahahahahahhah

I didn't want to get my hopes up. It seems like Portland might get cucked.

Probably New Orleans....

Speaking of getting cucked...

Cuckfans turning on both Morey and Melo faster than shit through a goose. Morey has gone from a god to a scapegoat and Melo from a prize to a pussy for caving in and agreeing to expand his list.

According to a source, the Knicks also reached out recently to a third team they think Anthony would waive his no-trade clause to join. That team, according to a source, is not the Blazers, whose backcourt stars - Damian Lillian and CJ McCollum - have openly recruited Anthony this offseason

That seems oddly worded. Could just be poor writing. But it says they reached out to someone they THINK he would waive it for, but he's furnished them with Cleveland and at least someone else. So the team they reached out to, who isn't us, theoretically isn't on his approved list?

 

[Cippy91]

well this sucks. Honestly thought we might be able to land him but for whatever fucking reason nobody wants to play with dame,cj and nurkic. Why? well, who the fuck knows.
