Melo's son destined for failure just like daddy :blessed:
He's not going to be a Philly GM breh.:whoa:

This nikka just wished negativity on the young Melo...

Just imagine Melo Jr. Purposefully pulling the okie doke on Philly fans. Ghastly, my nikka, ghastly. :whoo:

He's on an expiring contract. He's making only $5mill this year. We'd basically be renting him.

If Memphis saw more good than bad in Lance Thomas, they'd be able to lock up a guy who will be making 7 mill up until 2020.

Honestly, I'd want a second round pick to trade Lance Thomas straight up for Tony.

Again, only because Memphis would be able to reboot with youth.

Considering how Holiday has been playing, we'd be able to transition Holiday to the 3 off the bench.

We'd have our usual starting line up and then have Jennings, Tony Allen, Holiday, and Kuzminskas/Oquinn sharing the 4 and Hernangomez and O'Quinn sharing the 5.

Lance for Tony would be so damned good that I'd throw in a second rounder if that was what it took tbh. My thinking is the extra cap space could help bring back a couple of the guys that have really helped our bench (Holiday and Jennings). I'm also one of the biggest Lance Thomas haters around though to be fair, but look at that second unit with Allen in the mix :banderas:

George Karl's a dikk

Saw this earlier and it made me think of a couple posts here.

Saying KP is a star in the making is tame compared to what Woj is saying here :pachaha:
Nothing wrong with being reserved, but i think KP has shown enough to be optimistic about his chances of becoming a star.

i had to come back to this stupid shyt
you know how many teams would want a "meh" year from a 2nd year player that includes scoring 20 points ...grabbing 8 boards and getting 2 blocks a game???
you know he's probably gonna be an all star right.
"meh" :mjlol:
aint no one crowning anything we're just excited to have a player with a massive upside and potential.

how many players came into the league at 7 foot and commanded do be a #1 option
you guys do realize...kp is 21...and has a lot of weight to gain and room to grow in his game...and he's playing with carmelo and derrick rose
i've seen it in several instances this year...where he tries to take whatever shot he wants...especially in the phoenix game. it takes a while to develop the kind of confidence....you know the kind melo exhibits even when he's having awful games.
compare him to last year...if he missed a couple shots he'd shy away from taking that same shot...
he'll be fine...and he will take over the reins as the #1 in due time.

Porzingis' blocks, rebounds, steals and assists are all down from last year. Hence the jump I was looking for. You guys all get excited over volume scoring...the problem is that doesnt really correlate to wins. He needs to do all those things a hell of a lot better if we're looking for him to be cornerstone player. That's all.

kps's shooting percentages are up from last year by several percentage points across the board...including 15+ percent more at the rim...detailing...slowly that he's getting stronger
kp's blocks and rebounds and assists are literally .1 and .2 less than last year....what a reach :mjlol:
while his point total and rim protection has improved. he's keeping players 4-5 percentage points off their average everytime he contests them.
lol @ judging a 7'3 player in steals and assists...are you being serious?
lol @ it taking you two days to respond to me with that weak ass argument
if you have eye balls you can clearly see he's better than last year.
your whole argument is trash....just because you want to be reserved about feeling confident that this kid will be something special doesnt mean we all have to.
i'll take the opinions of numerous nba analysts thats seen the game up close for decades than your half takes.
sorry, bro.
