DW: Hey Denver, how's it going today? What did you have for breakfast today?

DENVER: Did you see Melo go off last night? Hoo boy, that guy is special. Gotta be worth a whole team of players.

DW: I had the best steel cut oats I get specially imported directed from Scotland. Can't eat those bacon and egg feasts anymore.

DENVER: Do you honestly think there is anyone in the whole league now that can light it up like Melo? He's on fire Donnie!

DW: Ever been to Peter Luger's in Brooklyn? Best damn steaks in the world.

DENVER: You know, if you think about it, mathematically speaking, One Melo is = Five regular NBA players.

DW: I like the Ribeye there. Perfectly aged and cooked to perfection. Delicious!

DENVER: But, hey, let's be reasonable. We'll take four guys just to keep it real. It's a stretch for us, I mean we're doing you a favor here, but we'll live with Gallo + Fields + Chandler + Felton if you take Harrington with Melo. That's our final offer.

DW: And the Merlot was fantastic. It's a small vineyard in Napa called Dream On. You must try the 2007 vintage. Superb!

DENVER: We got steaks and wine in Denver dawg! WTF are you talking about? We're done with you!

DW: Talk to you tomorrow. Cheers!

Deadline 2 weeks away and 4 of those days are all star weekend. I expect carmelos agent to really make strong statements. It's not just about Melo but his money. I expect the agent to use scare tactics.

Wilson Chandler and Landry Fields would not be averaging 6-7 rpg in another team. The Knicks play small and that's why they grab rebounds at the rate they do.

The stats by both of them are inflated because of the D'Antoni system. At the end of the day, Carmelo Anthony is better than Chandler, Gallinari or Fields. If they have to give up 2 of the 3 to get him I would go for it.

Fields grabs rebounds like he does because of his game. He did the same thing in college (from what I read) and he's crushing the boards like a maniac. He'll rebound whereever he goes (which hopefully will be nowhere) because he's better at it than most big men.

I am all for giving up 2 of the 3. Let's face it the Knicks need to make a deal, it is not 100% guarantee Carmelo will come to NY as a Free Agent. Don't be suprise if Dallas comes up with a deal as well.

Oh, that's a cool idea. The Telephone Game. Whisper the word to the person next to you and they pass it on and see what comes out the other end. Example: Start with "Winnebago" and end up with "Rutabaga".

The triangle offense does not benefit PG's, all of Phil Jackson's championship teams never had a bonafide PG. His best PG he coached was a old Gary Payton.

You guys do realize that Donnie said this would happen? That Denver would change their mind about our assets. Lol, Donnie isn't going to cave in. He's too old for this ****.

Nice job, Mags. I love how teams with worse records than ours like to take shots at us. I specifically love the fact that the guy named johnwall said that we suck right now, so why would Melo want to come here :rofl:


Thanks bro. :)

Keep reading the link above, because now a Lakers' Mod has joined the discussion on why we suck. :lol:

Styleis big reason for Fields success. Throw him on another team he may not shine. See The Matrix.

Right now Fields is one of our best rebounders, which is a main reason I don't want to lose him. He's always right in place for a board or a put back. Who's gonna do that if Fields is gone??
