Melo bout to get so much money this summer :{

He probably Birdman hand rubbing somewhere in Manhattan as we speak
 
They winning a title anytime in NY I doubt it!!!!! so why would he stay...

I dont think melo is the type to chase a ring while hes at the top of his game, every player isnt gonna win a title, hes got the knicks relevant and i think hes gonna ride out in the orange and blue until he falls off and the knicks trade him

to OKC then Orlando.
 
If he would have been offered a 2 year, 6 million dollar deal he should have laughed in their faces, put up 14 and 11 with 2.5 blocks this year, then bounce when another team offers him a bigger deal. No one else was interested in him because he's on his rookie contract and it was assumed he would be extended. Had they not offered him a contract, then you'd hear more about it.
if he puts up 14 and 11 this year Utah can still give him that contract offer in the offseason. I like favors a lot and hopes he turns it up with milsap gone but I saw little reason to pay him that much right now.
 
I didn't hear anything about other teams interested in him
Because exactly zero people expected them to let him become a free agent (and he wouldn't have been one yet, anyway).

If you want a list a teams that would be interested in him, it's all of them.
 
Are you gay? Why does it even matter? Dude plays good basketball. I ain't thinking about who is straight or gay when I watch a Houston game.


I mean if your gay I guess thats why you wanna know, but the rest of us just want to see good basketball.
Are you stupid? If im gay then i wouldn't care. I'm not gay that's why i find the relationship between him and Lin kind of creepy.

Why are gay people creepy to you?
 
Does anybody get involved in fantasy basketball? If so, how is it?

As far as Melo, he might be slowly damaging his reputation as a player. He plays selfishly for the most part and is not a team player. That being said, only two coaches I can see whippin him into rare form would be Doc, Thibs, and Pop


On another note, what is up w/ OKC keepin Perk as their starting center? I mean, seriously.
 
Whos ya most improved candidates?

I see lou will taking it or oj if he leads the bucks to the playoffs

Nah he gonna have to put up atleast 20 & 10 to win it[/quote]

20 8 5, cut back on the turnovers, improve his efficiency and lead his team to the playoffs I think he'll win it.

Favors and Hayward are two others that have a shot
 
Lol 20, 8, 5 is top 5 pg numbers, i also forgot about jeff green, but hes not that aggressive on offense plus playing with jordan crawford while rondo is out doesnt help

Got my first draft in about an hour.

Fantasy basketball is always a delight for me, although for me it isn't nearly as fun as fantasy football since there are so many more statistics than football so its a little more convoluted and not as straight forward.

Last year he averaged 18 7.6 4 maybe 20 is a stretch but the other numbers are obtainable
 
He'll get 20, if he improves his jumper than sky is the limit for him. It will be between him, Westbrook, Kyrie and Steph for best PG in the coming years.
 
Favors will be the goods.

Not sure he'll ever be able to do the same post move two times over, but the defense and rebounding is already at a near elite level. He can probably hustle his way to 14-15 PPG.
