WOAH! Thanks for the confirmation.

So can you be more specific? Are we talking trade with NY AND LA to bring them both in? Where is Taj going?

I don't know who and what the exact details are, but several teams are involved, so maybe it's just for Gasol? Not sure if that then lets us get Melo though.

Cool. SO what exactly did you hear about Melo?

is this designed to clear the 22 mil that Ralph mentioned so we can offer it to Melo and still add Gasol?

Scenario with Gasol+Anthony Incoming with Taj out has been discussed in form of multiple team trade.

you really think so?

I thought Taj would be a better fit next to Melo, have Taj do all the dirty work and have Melo just shoot the rock

It would be so epic if GarPax could swing the big dick like that and bring in a star, plus a hell of a big man. All past shortcomings are washed away.

Time to work the phones bro. This is your chance. Scoop the media and become a legend

The odds are infinitely more likely we find out through a guy like Woj or Stein than from me unfortunately.

Yes, be positive and all of that, but let's not be loopy and turn into weird fans here, let's retain some sanity.

This x1000

Not to mention it's just a bad, desperate look. God I hope those come down as fast as they went up. I hate Bulls fans having Melo in Bulls uni avy's and I hate that the Bulls even put those banner up. Hate it. He's not a Bull, Never been a Bull. You don't get to wear that jersey until you're on the team, son. It's sacred.

Both great fits along with Noah and Mirotic

You could have all 5 if Melo and Pau take less

Does that mean if Melo picks Chicago or that Melo is already leaning that way?

I didn't get the idea there was any leverage yet. Its exactly the chatter expected to be seen before a S&T would be leveraged anyway. If there is now leverage, Melo has made a decision to leave and is trolling for the best offer for him to Houston or Chicago.

The lakers would be a smokescreen unless he is teaming with Lebron. Look out for that.

Well we did have that dude report that Melo told NY he is leaving...

Post #77 » by **kulaz3000** » Sat Jul 5, 2014 10:25 pm

Taj has consistently moaned about touching during his time playing with Kobe, and he thinks it's a good idea to play with not only Melo but Derrick as well, both whom are ball dominate?

This whole Melo and Pau idea just makes no sense to me, and of all the players that Melo has affinity to, why him? It's just so bizzare. I'd be happier and more understand if Melo wanted to play with Millsap or something, Pau just doesn't seem like a good fit at all.

It is speculation, IMO. I don't think Melo wants Gasol on the Bulls. He probably wants him on the Knicks to run the triangle. This tells us that he was basically recruiting for the Knicks or to stay back with the Knicks as much as he can.

If he is recruiting Gasol to run some new offense under Thibs, you are probably right.

If someone other than the Knicks get Melo, the entire NY basketball media crowd should lose internet access for a year.
