The super Melo to Portland thread + The Big Blockbuster (4 Viewers)

This is his response to ESPN's low rating. How are people taking this as saying he's willing to waive the NTC to come here?

When the joke flies over your head, comes back around, and flies over it again.

I have always contended that my internet sarcasm meter is broken.

If he was willing to waive his NTC the deal would be done and he'd be here

Crap he is staying in New York

You need to interpret the "#StayMelo" code. He's simply housebound due to vehicular difficulties, hence replacing "Car" with "Stay".

Blazers will kick their azz regardless. Not sure if that's buying, selling, or whatever.

Shit, if they were going to try this hard they should have spent the summer with Lebron.

I know you're kidding , but LBJ is going to the piss-and-purple and no way he waived his NTC. As difficult as it is with Melo, LBJ would be that much more difficult (besides how otherwise unrealistic it is). But it's kinda nice to dream.

Lebron loves Portland. Wouldn't need to sell him.

I disagree. Lebron has mentioned numerous times how much he likes Portland. Spends a lot of time there (mainly because of Nike) and has monster games at moda.

 

[barfo]

Lebron told me he's definitely signing here. For the vet minimum, too.

Then he said 'when I'm 80'. I guess that must mean his uniform number will be 80?

Anyway, good news, everyone!

I disagree. Simply put, if LBJ wanted to be here, he'd be here.

Anthony’s camp is cautiously optimistic that a deal will be struck before Monday, and trying not to think about the potential media circus that will take place if Carmelo is still with the Knicks. Two weeks ago, Carmelo’s wife, La La, said the family thought a trade would have been completed by now.

Mentally, Carmelo and his family have moved on to Houston. Reality is another story.

Mentally in Houston while really stuck in NY. I believe that's referred to as being in La La Land.

La La will just Love Portland. I'm just sure of it!

We do have a Hollywood. What more could she need?

 

[Scalma]

Lillard was on everyday struggle and touched on the Melo subject a bit. Said he doesn't usually recruit but he likes Melos vibe as a person and think he'd fit. Doesn't sound like it's a closed door.

Around the 52m mark

I think that qualifies as "extra fiber".
