Positions are fleeting, doggie. Don't get caught up in 1,2,3,4,5. Melo and LeBron played beautifully together on Team USA. Plus Melo is actually best at the 4 now, anyway, and LeBron still operates mostly from the wing.

LeBron at the 3, Melo at the 4, Thompson at the 5 in s small-ball style death lineup, with Kyrie and another defender on the floor. Let it rock and expand your mind. :ohhh:

And why are we talking about LaLa, man? It's not like being in new york has opened up a bunch of job opportunities - so she can live anywhere, and still be Melo's wife, hell, she could even stay in new york. Plenty of players keep their families where they're comfortable during the season.





Oh yeah, his contract is already very valuable. And I think Skal, Korkmaz, or Luwawu will be there at 13. Those are REALLY good values.


Anyway, this deal is of course a pipedream, but it's a nice pipedream that lines up with where this team should be looking. Which is a nice change of pace.

Melo isn't dipping, end of story.

You're probably right. (and a little mad? :umad:)

But since there's no other news right now, I don't mind talking about a few scenarios that have been floated by various writers, etc.

It's better than talking about signing Rondo, so Melo can live out his golden years with a point guard that wouldn't even benefit his game. :manny:

Mad, not at all. He's still going to be on the team whether ya'll like it or not :win:

Oh no, not about that.

Some of y'all just seem upset that general consensus has come around to the fact that the team should shift away from what's best for Melo and his career.

:myman:Including melo.

After watching the way the refs have handled the Spurs/Thunder; Thunder/Warriors and now Warriors/Cavs...I'm pretty sure that all we need is to make the playoffs and the refs/league will throw us enough bones to get them their coveted Melo vs Lebron ECF match-up whether we deserve to make it or not. :troll:
