Hey, look at this, a professional news website, with a title "Lillard, McCollum recruit Anthony to Portland" I rest my case.

Rest what case? Your thread was merged because that had already been reported in the thread I merged yours into. It doesn't matter how many websites you can find with the story.

Let it rest. When is the last time you saw a meaningful post from....?

(Sorry @SlyPokerDog , but how do I respond about posts in general made by said poster without naming the poster? Seems like an attack, but it's an attack on many posts, much like another poster posts a general attack on many posters. Except in my cas, I'm at King only posts, not any posters.)

I guess we could just rename the Carmelo threads as they pop up and people can pick their favorite.

Week 1 - The Phantom 4th Team

Don't take this as combative, but why?

Hard worker, good shooter, good basketball IQ, teammates seem to like him, awesome cheerleader....seems like the perfect 15th man

My answer would be that the 11-15 spots should generally be filled by either minimum salary vets providing experience/leadership/mentoring to younger players, or project players who look like they can develop into rotation players in the future. Pat is clearly not the first, and arguably doesn't have the ceiling of the second. That part's up for debate, obviously, but for those who have already made up their mind about him not having any more future in this league than what he's already done in his first two years, it's understandable that they would view him as not even worth the 15th spot.

You listed one basketball skill, and it's still a debatable one because of the sample size. I just don't see enough talent or upside worth developing.
 


Doesn't sound like Carmelo is interested in Portland listening to Dame's response... what do u guys think?

I didn't think it sounded promising the first time he talked about it either. Not nearly as encouraging as some of the tweets made it sound.

No reason Pat couldn't provide us with Turner's 2016/2017 production...at a small fraction of the cost.
 
If they are so excited about having a spot up jump shooter at the wing, may as well just play Allen Crabbe.
