he just said he doesn't know melo.



Then how does he know which teams are out? Melo called the Knicks/Nets to let them know, but not all of those teams?

FYI, as opposed to html pages which are "static" (meaning when you publish the page the content is fixed and is easier to "call), message forums like these are "dynamic", meaning always every single call to the database is unique... the pages are constantly changing.

New posts are added, contents like people sigs and avis can change. That is VERY taxing to a database. Forums like this often crash during heavy activity periods.

If there system is anything like ones I'm familiar with, it's hard to just add bandwidth to cover an outlying event like this one.

I assume we're just going to have live with some outages until all this is settled.

At this point, I welcome someone who has sources and contributes to the board, but I've been scorned too many times in the past that I believe that nothing happens until it happens.



honestly thats a load of crap no offense. if something was in the works he would say exactly what it is. theres no way someone can withold that kind of information if they know it. its just human nature.

DAMMITTT WE NEED TO KNOWWWWWWWWWWW....

i dont know mayb he is right and people really do read this board, but thats crazy if true.

Something can be in the works, but until it's official, it can fall through. A way it can fall through is if someone knows what you are trying to do and prevents you from doing it.

If we're looking for a team that has capspace to use for Amare or Barg's contract, the team we are dealing with can agree in principal, but then at the last minute, another team knows what the Knicks are trying to do and steps in with a better offer, our plans are known and stopped.

Besides, like someone mentioned earlier, why would he be completely specific about something that's not concrete and still likely to change or hinge on the balance of something we can contro? If he says too much, the deal can be compromised, and perhaps it even exposes him, too.

End of the week? The way he banged out those meetings made me think he wanted to be quick and efficient with this process.

I'm still going to hold onto my hope that he's working with the Knicks and keeping everything silent so someone doesn't jump in and mess up their plan by way of FO defense

if philly is the only spot for us to dump him and the rockets to dump lin, they can make us bid against each other. which means they're gonna demand the world to take either one.

Slim. But Morey's got money, and it's entirely possible that he's got a minion following everything that's posted here.

Can Philly take both Lin and Amare?

Can Milwaukee take on one?

Can Magic?
