@MarkDeeksNBA: @KCJHoop This smacks me as not even a very opaque attempt at sabotage, to be honest.

I'm going to tell you guys again don't listen to Chris Broussard he's an idiot. Nobody really likes him at ESPN. The guy has sources yes but not all of his sources are good. If he hears me saying "oh man I just heard Melo is going to LA" he will come out with a damn story. LOL

The guy you could trust at ESPN are Marc Stein but mostly Brian Windhors.

Damage control somewhere to ease tension for when Melo signs

@McGrawDHBulls: Another bogus story pops up about Bulls/Melo. Like I said, some teams work hard at this.

Talked to Melo, but purely coincidental, never once tried to sway him to sign here. :lol:

How can he sway him to sign here if he was surprised? :lol:

Horse ****

Broussard is either a liar, or a moron.

If you believe any of this BS spewing, then I've got a bridge to sell you.


Why? All we heard about Rose being involved is that Melo "saw him work out." This story is consistent with that.

If Rose was involved in the recruiting, why wasn't his name mentioned alongside Noah and Taj?


It would also explain why he was so in and out of the UC. Also Rose left from the other side of the building. BND is right. The story is consistent.

What about the reports that he was at the dinner and left early? This whole thing is such a freaking joke. All the media are just making shite up. The entire NBA media has become of mockery of journalism. It's all about who can speculate the most interesting crap and get more hits on their twitters and hits on their websites.

Any time I ever hear anybody say "multiple sources" or just "sources close to the team/situation" , I just laugh.

if you're going to make stuff up at least make it believable. It makes no sense at all that D.Rose was "shocked" to see Melo that day.

He'd have to have been in media quarantine for a week for that to be true

Melo walked in the building and Rose was like "Hey Reggie what's Melo doing here"

If it was a previously scheduled workout for Rose, best believe GarPax knew when it was scheduled for so they could just pop in for a viewing while Carmelo was in. That way, Rose would be "recruiting" pretty much whether he liked it or not...

@AlexKennedyNBA: Derrick Rose was surprised to see Carmelo Anthony? Was he the only person in the world who didn't know Bulls were meeting with 'Melo?
