Here's my favorite cuckfans take.
melodidnt do anything, if melo said he wanted to play for the blazers or wizards. the nba would have let that trade go through without hesitation. The league is blocking this trade to try and stime Harden from having another elite 2017 like season, by enforcing rules to stop him, and now preventing him from getting added help after Harden lost most of his roster in the cp3 trade.The Knicks are so hellbent on not trading melo to houston because everything they agree on keeps getting BLOCKED by the league office, that i can almost PROMISE you the package that the knicks get for Melo will be WAY less than what we were offering. This is like Paul George to the Celtics all over again. People forget a trade can be agreed upon among two, three, or even four teams. BUT IF THE LEAGUE DOESNT APPROVE IT, their is nothing you do.
Adam Silver is not gonna sit by and watchHarden continue to outscore Curry( Harden and Curry were both drafted in 2009), and then on top of that have a roster capable of matching up to the warriors head 2 head with a mastermind like dantoni. NO WAY JOSE, the nba is heavily marketed towards the warriors, they need them in the finals. The Warriors dont pull in ratings by themselves, their ratings are crap when they play the jazz, or blazers. But when they play teams like houston, or okc when they had Durant the ratingswere amazing. LeBron is the biggest star in the NBA he is the ratings pull for the NBA, not Curry. LeBron has pulled in gigantic ratings in the finals with smallmarkets like the spurs and okc, and made them powerhouses for tv among casuals, and LeBron also made the warriors powerhouses. When you playLeBron in the finals you have made it among casuals, and nba execs know that
Funny how funny things that usually arent supposehappen ALWAYS seem to happen to the rockets andHarden
