Or showered.

I tried going outside but with the sun reflecting off my phone, it was harder to read the Twitter updates and the forums, so I came back inside.

From Lala's point of view, NY and LA makes sense. It gets her acting career a chance, Melo gets more money, he stays home more(as the Knicks/Lakers will be either be eliminated early in the playoffs or don't even make the playoffs) and has less wear and tear from Thibs's practices. Is there a difference between being MJ and Barkley for her? It's all the same...famous, rich and well known in your city.

I understand that Melo has a lot to overcome in terms of convincing his family...

Continue to hear OKC is ahead of Miami in Anthony Morrow chase. Along with Pau Gasol, Morrow has been a prime Thunder target in free agency

The RealGM board is terrible because it plays its ads in the wrong aspect, so you can't even stop the ad videos from playing audio. Shaking my head.

If it's gonna take getting rid of Taj to get this deal done you do it. Quality over quantity, do you think Clipper fans sit there thinking about what could've been with Eric Gordon?.. Ofcourse not!

MT “@IraHeatBeat: Heat's use of exceptions is a game-changer with Bosh. There no longer is any need to ask him to take significantly less.

Well, lets hope for the best but I expect the worst. I still have a hard time believing Melo will leave NY.

I don't see why Melo's decision should have to effect her career negatively though. If he moves to Chicago, its not like she has to move here too. Boozer's family stayed put in Miami and he went back home at least once every 2-3 weeks.

So in other words he's torn on taking the money (Knicks) or winning (Bulls).

Maybe there's another team...

We can trade Rose to Philly anytime.

I still think the Bulls are in it.
I dunno, you meet with a team for 10hrs and you dont just eliminate em. I dunno

Maybe thats too simple a thought, but clearly he initially had the most interest in the Bulls and i just dont see that dying over the weekend. Im with the Lakers for leverage scenario.
I am setting myself for dissapointment though .lol

So has the rest of the world.

Gonna disagree w/ this. I may have missed it, but I haven't seen any legit news places mention the "using LA to push a S&T w/ Chicago" angle. None of the outlets were even mentioning Chicago over the weekend, let alone in a theory like that.
