unless Philly is taking Amare & Shumpert for some stupid reason there is no way Lebron can go to NY unless he signs a 1 year deal with Miami and signs with NY next year

Growing expectation that the purpose of LeBron's meeting with Riley will be to inform Heat of his decision to return to the Cavs.

That's disgusting. I pee in jars and then stack them neatly in the corner.

Good thinking. Let me know when you next fly in the Spruce Moose.

Hey all, newb here. I find it really strange for Reggie Rose to both offer his opinion on Melo and his brother's camp's disconnect with the organization. I am struggling to wrap my head around the idea that he knows anything regarding Melo if there is such a disconnect. How would he know anything given his brother's supposed brief and forced (allegedly) meeting with Melo? This is all so weird to me.

I don't have any information. That's my point. People believe so many stupid people in these situations. The majority of the time, they don't know ****.

Well to be honest if we are not getting melo I'm happy we are not then getting pau as "plan b" or any plan
And I'm sure the lakers will rob them somehow

Basically there were more and-1s given out than cars from oprah, then carl made some cryptic posts on the knicks forum. When I woke up this morning I had 200 ish and-1s. Someone bugged it out.

The real deal with the bulls is, they have and will upgrade talent no matter what. A 4th seed without Rose no matter how weak the east is means something. Oh and without Deng. Guarantees? Can't give you one, see the heat. Good position? Very likely. Mirotic isn't a lose nor is dougie. Losing Melo? Hurts A bit. Lance, Gordon, etc... Feels like mercer/boozer but this is a better team with a better coach.

1. Broke the Kidd to the Bucks story a few days before the national media.

2. Said Knicks' fans have "nothing to worry about" and implied Melo + Pau or possibly Melo + LeBron to the Knicks.

Bottom line - Either you're treating his posts as 100% fact based off of the Kidd story and are in a full blown panic, or you treat it with as much credibility as pretty much other "media" member and are waiting for actual news/decisions to be made.

Carl broke the Jason Kidd story: http://www.cbssports.com/nba/eye-on-basketball/24601175/how-a-realgm-poster-broke-the-jason-kidd-story-before-anyone-else

He's made a few statements today about having sources in the Knicks organization too, implying that everything will be fine and a "big storm is coming" with Gasol winding up in NY.
