So a guy has been shooting 1 for 10 and to now expect his every shot to fall is idiotic.... oh wait..... look who I'm talking to. :lol:

I believe I have something to do from 7:00 PM-9:00PM from now on. Melo is the prize.

Haha, its all relative. At 1 for 10 SAS is like Shawne Williams out there. Is it all a fluke???

Broussard is like the Antoine Walker of reporters. He has never met a rumor he never liked.

This guy is so ridiculous..
He basically wants to give up all 3 for carmelo
a felton, carmelo , amare team and garbage aint going to do sh*t in the playoffs ...I dont give a **** what any Melo swag rider says...
WE NEED TO HAVE A FULL TEAM ! Not depend on 2 and 1/2 guys ..
Every championship team has that guy off the bench that can give them 15 points any given night. Melo+ Stat is a combined 50 points every night ....add felton 16 poitns and that comes out to 66 ppg between all 3.. Ok now who else is going to provide extra scoring ? Shawne williams? Bill Walker? Toney Douglas? are you kiddin me?

Why is SAS bringing up our opponent's FG% in relation to bringing in Melo?

What if we had no leverage, would you give up all 3? Or would you let the fact that we wouldn't immediately have great pieces surrounding Melo Amare and Felton stop you from getting Melo!???

That makes no sense... yes you hold onto who you can, but lets not get it twisted.... if you have to strip your team to get Melo here (WERE THAT THE SCENARIO), and even "take a step back" if you could possibly see getting Melo back for giving those guys up as that, - you do it....... you can fill in those pieces easily, Melo - not so much...........

He is annoying as hell, but I think the guy actually knows something.

Now I don't think they should give up all three for Melo, even though I think Melo is better than all three right now.

But I agree with Stephen A...waiting to the off-season is not automatic.

yes he put his career on the line to make that call, it was a HUGE deal

+ he has explained why lbj didnt sign with NY
+ why the owners want hard cba
etc

the dude has the info on bball, unlike broussard who didnt even know why melo can only sign a 3 yr extension.

they are all bad, but SAS is better than those other hacks

SAS would probably make howard stern look like a choir boy with the curses he would say, if he was on sirius radio.

There will be no MLE going forward. We don't have our 2012 pick either. So the options are not very good to continue building out the team.
