Rose isn't eligible to be amnestied.

Or showered.

I tried going outside but with the sun reflecting off my phone, it was harder to read the Twitter updates and the forums, so I came back inside.

I don't see why Melo's decision should have to effect her career negatively though. If he moves to Chicago, its not like she has to move here too. Boozer's family stayed put in Miami and he went back home at least once every 2-3 weeks.

I doubt a good wife(I didn't know much about her before the Melo threads) would like her husband to be traveling/live in a different city and make less money even if it is helping him to win championships. I am just telling from her view he is going to be a famous NBA player whether he plays in Chicago or NY or LA. A lot of those other things Melo cares about is probably blocked before it even enters her ears.

Who knows though!! we are all speculating.

All these Miami signings have to mean that the Big 3 will come back, at minimum paycuts. Hopefully the announcement will come tonight.

That will end Melo's shot at going to Miami.

Then we will see what happens. If it's NY or LA, the decision will come quick. If there is delay, then the only reasonable interpretation is that it's the Bulls, and an S&T is being negotiated.

Too bad they don't have a brand new inaugural advocate-center with medical training facilities.

MT “@IraHeatBeat: Heat's use of exceptions is a game-changer with Bosh. There no longer is any need to ask him to take significantly less.

I think the issue Bosh is having, from what I've read, is that if Lebron only wants a 2-3 year deal, at the max, why should Bosh sign a 5 year deal, especially if a slight paycut is involved.

"Who gives a **** if Rose is recruiting Melo? I'm recruiting Melo!"

"Everybody needs to shut up about that. It's not his personality," Marshall said. "Everyone knows D-Rose. Everyone knows D-Rose as a humble, quiet kid. He's not going to do anything that is beside himself. He's not going on Twitter - he's not on Twitter, period - so why would he go on Twitter and do that? Why would he go on any social network? Why would he go on ESPN or Fox Sports?

"That's not his thing. I'm sure he's had conversations quietly and he was there, but anything outside of that is not D-Rose. People need to sit back and accept people for who they are. I'm sure he's doing what he can, but as far as him stepping outside himself, it wouldn't be organic. It wouldn't be real."

I like the way he put that. Its just not his nature to be that outgoing and demonstrative.

DOES ANYBODY KNOW what we offered Carmelo contract wise? in this article it states that we only offered him 4yr/75M if that is true we have 0% chance to get him, i would not blame him if he does not pick the Bulls, not only is lakers offering 96, if thats true he would be leaving 50m on the table with the Knicks and 21m on the table for the Lakers.

that is not pennys here, if this is true i can see why he didnt agree to us right away, some people has said we did offer the max, and we had moves on the line to dump salary, thats bs , i feel is we offered carmelo the max he would have commit to us already.

I'll go with this. She doesn't seem the wife that will stop her husband from accomplishing his dreams.
