    He's annoying since the move from the Heat and everything about him being "business decisions" when it's just he's being a whiny little fa----

    It was nice to see Kobe hit a game winner again after all the misses in those situations earlier this year. He looks so much better ever since he sat out a few games, playing efficient triple double type basketball every night. I think he's averaged like 18, 8 and 8 in his 4 games back.

    Anyways, I'm going to the Lakers/Blazers game tonight, pretty bummed that Kobe's sitting out and I know the Lakers will likely get killed. Portland does play down to their opponents sometimes so it wouldn't surprise me if it's close for the 1st 3 quarters, but Portland should win by at least 10. I hope I'm wrong though and it's close to the end and maybe the Lakers even sneak out with a W somehow like they did last year in Portland. Gonna need some guys to step up obviously.

    JR Smith to Cleveland lol awful trade for the Cavs. Knicks won, Hardaway Jr. can step up now and other young players can develop with that r----- gone. Dion Waiters to OKC is odd, could be okay but idk why they need him really.

    The Thunder are still trying to make up for the worst trade in nba history. (james harden) They're going in the wrong direction, KD & Westbrook are going to leave.

    Celtics need to get Jameer Nelson and Marcus Thornton out of town, need to play James Young. Kid is a lights out shooter.

    But lets not forget that Stan Vangundy is the Real MVP here. Pistons on a 5 game winning streak since they dropped j brick

    Thought this was a good trade for my Knicks, JR NEEDED to go (Though he was a chill dude when I met him at the freehold mall in NJ one day lmfao), I love shump but his injuries and no guarantee he would've been back as a RFA next year. Phil wanted the flexibility and had to take a hit there giving him up.(Still think he wants a shot at KD in 2 years).

    Cavs still need a rim protector I initially thought Dalembert was going there in this too or someone from OKC to Cavs but no dice there. They'll make another move somewhere for one or they will be in trouble with Tristan at C.
    They did get some perimeter D help when Shump gets healthy but took on JR and his baggage so interesting move tbh.

    OKC taking Dion kinda confuses me with an already log jammed SG position its interesting. They've got a few guys who play that spot and basically all of them are scoring including Dion so its interesting.

    Knicks should trade Melo, but id wait until the end of the season because trading him now hurts the tank.

    Not sure you could trade Melo a year after that contract signing, It basically shows you failed in realizing you can't build around him and are giving which IMO I think you can. Need the right players. Give him a great pass first PG and some rim protectors with a partner in crime to score with and that team can be successful. Just need the right pieces. Also Melo and his No trade clause complicate things

    I think its pretty clear they did fail, admitting that shouldnt be the problem. Guy is a cancer with a proven terrible record in the playoffs. I mean look how bad that team is, you could switch Melo with Jeff Green and that team would be better. Im sure they could fight a was around the no trade clause.

    Melo cant co exist with another star either thats already been proven as well.

    You're pretty talented at finding ways to incorporate your favorite team into any situation.

    what star has he played with? amare? they never got to play together at full strength. The year melo got traded to ny, amare injured his back in the playoffs. The following year his knees broke down and each year following he's regressed due those lingering injuries. The closest to a star melo got to play with was chauncey billups in denver, they made it to the western conference finals.

    knick pg's since melo came.
    old billups for half a year, toney douglas, jeremy lin, baron davis, mike bibby, raymond felton, jason kidd, pablo prigioni, jose calderon, shane larkin

    you expect good results in a guard driven league with those n----s running an offense.
