I agree- it should be part of the pitch. If you can't hide something you paint it red. But I don't see how that's really a positive. I'm sure it'll be touted and definitely stoke his ego. But come on.

Broussard didn't say that for one. That report is based off of a twitter account that claimed Broussard said that.

When I read the stuff about the Houston pitch, it sounds like how the Bulls approached it in 2010. I honestly think Houston and Dallas are late to the game. Forget LA, they don't even have a coach yet.

Its Bulls or Knicks, imo.

Idk about the Rockets pitch.

From the visuals that I saw, it looks an unoriginal poor-man's version of Chicago's own.

Even the fans are a poor man versions of Chicago's own.

It comes from Broussard so you take it with a grain of salt

It might be a re-reporting of a false report from before. Or maybe Broussard actually said it now. If so, and if true, it means the Bulls need to scrounge more money if they want Melo.

That's was the good part about going first. They may have thought about doing that before us but since we went first they are the ones looking like cop cats.

To be honest your board is very active at the moment. Thats why I am here. Usually the knicks board is rocking. Thats not the case right now.

As long as they are engaging civil, rational discussion, there is nothing wrong with it so we'd appreciate it if Bulls treated respect with respect.

As for the other types, report them.

Unless they blow it away. But I've got to believe his picture on the front of ANY team's media guide isn't gonna swing one way or another. Like Melo takes that book home and Lala's suddenly all in for Houston, Chicago, or Dallas.

The fluff can ruin a deal but it sure as heck isn't gonna seal it.

Just because we're churning out a 100-page Melo thread a day, DOESN'T MEAN WE HAVE A PROBLEM! :lol:

I mean no offense man, but no one in this board cares. You should discuss this in the Rockets board.

I don't know what intimated means. If you meant intimidated, no I am not intimidated just sharing some information to the board that was lacking regarding Houston's pitch since there was clearly interest.

No offense to you, but people clearly care and have engaged in discussion. If you don't care for my postings you are welcome to put me on ignore.

Unfortunately the RealGM Rockets board is over run my Lin's idiotic fans, so no one goes there anymore. Most Rocket fans post on clutchfans.

The Bulls don't have a Sam Hinkie like the Rockets do.

I mean seriously. They are posting Melo pics wearing Lin's freaking number and on Lowry's doorstep at midnight July 1st. He is already gone.

If I was a player, I see that as a disrespect. Lin is still with the team technically, and has been a professional as a Rocket. He doesn't deserve that. Just saying.
