I hope he bounces back in game 5 as I will continue rooting for him, but damn It's been a frustrating season for him to say the least.


This bum team turned Melo's 12 PER azz into one of the all time scoring leaders he should issue an apology for likening them to hell and thank the organization tbh

Impossible for Melo get in any offensive rhythm playing with Westbrook, he should have listened my advice and went to Utah for Favors, would be heading to WCF right now as a top 2 scoring option on his team averaging 20+ ppg

Rubio
Mitchell
Ingles
Melo
Gobert

:droop:


If only Utah actually wanted him. Same with the rockets. Even tho they had paul and Harden wanting melo, Morey knew it wasn't a wise decision. Hence they would only trade ryan anderson.

Besides pooch, if let's say he did go to Utah I don't think they will get far. This dude wants to be a starter and still be treated like a star. He's not going to sacrifice anything. Snyder is all about ball movement and defense. Melo is neither of those.

Honestly thunder fuqed up. They should have just stuck with pg and the old crew.

Obviously Melo should have the Wade role off the bench.

I hope he has a productive season off the bench next season while playing about 25-29 minutes a game.

Thunder board seems to miss kanter. Some of them actually want him back and most of them regretted the trade. I'm fine with kanter. He's actually tradable.

I agree that he could be a good expiring contract to trade next season

They needed to do that to make the salaries match you clown... I'm sure if they had a more desirable higher salary option to trade they would have done it. Hence them desperately trying to get a 3rd team involved (Portland).

If Melo opts in for the Thunder, are we allowed to do a Timmy + Courtney Lee trade for him?

This is something I would do, especially for cap reasons in the season after next.
