Official 2018 NBA Preseason Thread - Jimmy Butler Does Things

[atlsfinest]

Even though Melo is washed, he always needed legitimate playmakers around him. No one on OKC was a playmaker.

In OKC, he played with two All-NBA players, one of whom averaged over 10 assists per game last season. Get outta here with that "he always needed legitimate playmakers around him" business.

One can argue just bc you avg 10 assist it don’t mean you make your teammates better...

 

[noblekane]

a melo antoni reunion would be great

 

[ballinsam23]

Like I said, Melo is still washed, but everyone that leaves OKC automatically turns into a better player.

 

[Lovetohate3000]

Melo has been washed since like 2014 , people just finally accepting it.
I told people that Knicks was dumb for giving him that bag with a no trade clause, Lakers fans wanted him. People think melo going to change now, nah. His ego to big for that. Dude was laughing at coming off the bench this past year. He going out like a.i.

a melo antoni reunion would be great

Gonna get him fired

Has there been any interest in the Warriors bringing back Swaggy? If not he can provide championship pedigree to another team, although that pedigree will be VERY diluted. If that does not work, there will be plenty of time for the nonsense in this video.

No, I don't think so. From what was last reported, the Warriors are looking to finalize their roster with Jarekbo and McCaw. Leaving the 15th spot open for a two-way player.

 

[Fozz]

Man, I'm not a Houston fan and I don't even want them to sign him lol.

My guess is D'antoni's experience with Melo on the Knicks wasn't the greatest.

Yo I didn’t even think about this Melo ******* hated him

 

[ballinsam23]

Does Houston have any money left?

Should try to convince Jabari on a cheap 1 year payday. Would be a good look for him if he can play out the year and contribute to a winner.

 

[Nawzlew]

why is regular melo never good

only when hes hoodie melo or olympic melo

 

[don ramon]

My guess is D'antoni's experience with Melo on the Knicks wasn't the greatest. And I can't blame him, Melo is nothing but an inefficient chucker at this point who thinks he's still 28.

son is washed and everyone needs to come to terms with this. he ain't doing nothing, but collecting paychecks and wasting people's time now.
his last three years in the league have been embarrassing

 

[Bend_The_Knee]

Man Melo is NOT the player he was once man

He was STILL a top scorer he WOULD get paid more but he's not so he won't.

Seems like the Dodgers play late tonight because Magic Johnson is tweeting early today.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Uh oh

 

[Mr Dink]

Add Melo to the list of players who wasted their primes on mediocre teams.

 

[BIG FISH]

Damn Houston lost Luc and Ariza....
Hmmm

 

[lovehateself]

houston needs him more than ever now
they just lost LMM to the clippers

 

[DADDYFATSACKS]

Will take some time to dig that up but I was super detailed in college 10+ years ago with filing **** and should be able to find it ... Gotta fire up my Acer lol

To be clear, in economic terms, 93% of the variation in wages was explainable by things like variation in occupations, experience, education and the like ...

Not true. People of color are also paid less than White males even with the same credentials, experience, etc. The wage gap isn’t some made up thing it’s real.

 

[LebronHasMoreFinalsMVPs]

End of the harden rockets is near fellas

 

[MVP]

Uh oh

Rockets blew their load.

 

[youngthundercat]

Houston better pull off something special

 

[Mr Dink]

Melo and CP3 will go down as some of the best players to never win a ring.

 

[rick2345]

Man Trae Young is stinking it up out there. I mean obviously, the kid can still get better but damn his stats looking rough.

 

[don ramon]

houston needs him more than ever now
they just lost LMM to the clippers

seems they "lost" him on purpose to make room for carmelo

rockets are dumb for this
