:oldlol: :facepalm Morey will never learn.

Dude GM's like he's playing NBA 2K.

[Cocaine80s]

Lin, Parsons, and Asik for Melo?

[atljonesbro]

:oldlol:

Feel bad for Rockets fans having this joke of a GM

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

wtf woould ny want lin back?

[Milbuck]

James Harden for Raymond Felton. Who says no?

[Cocaine80s]

James Harden for Raymond Felton. Who says no?
Raymond Felton would be a franchise player in Milwaukee.

[Spaulding]

Imagine if they didn't have Harden but Rondo Melo and Dwight. Be killer.

[fatboy11]

:oldlol:

It's tough.

Definitely a trying time for me as a Rockets fan. He went out and got two of the most unlikeable players in the league to build a team around, and now he wants one of the biggest ball-stoppers in league history. I can't even begin to imagine how he thinks Harden and Carmelo will work, or how he thinks Dwight is going to react.

[Marlo_Stanfield]

wtf woould ny want lin back?
are you retarded??
he was the only exitement they had in the last ten years.
he would IMMEDIATLY lead them to 50 wins in the east and put up 22/8 again.
together with PArsons and Asik the Knicks would rape the Rockets in that trade:applause: :applause:

[Black and White]

If the Rockets really wanna win, they offer Harden for Melo, and sign some bench vets

Bev/Lin
Vet SG
Parsons
Melo
Dwight

[Sarcastic]

Parsons and about 3 or 4 first round picks, and it's a deal.

[Marlo_Stanfield]

If the Rockets really wanna win, they offer Harden for Melo, and sign some bench vets

Bev/Lin
Vet SG
Parsons
Melo
Dwight
are you retarded or why did you put Bev as the starter?? Lin is better in every facet of the game including defense and he only doesnt play because Bev is a scrub who averages 1 Assist per game and doesnt take the ball away from harden
Yes harden is THAT babied

I put it like that because thats how McHale would start the lineup

Hey Rob how you doing

[Marlo_Stanfield]

Lin/Felton
Shumpert/Hardaway
Parsons/Smith
Amare/Bargs
Chandler/Asik
is the second best team in the East not even close( if they have some decent utility players)

[Jameerthefear]

lol

[Cocaine80s]

Melo with harden and Dwight is retarded though lol. Mid way through the season I wouldn't be surprised if one of them(melo or harden) comes off the bench. These ****** can't share the ball

[Cocaine80s]

[Duggrr]

Harden and Melo on the same team? LOL.

[Marlo_Stanfield]

I put it like that because thats how McHale would start the lineup
not necesarrily.
Lin delivered everytime in the playoffs when he was alloed to handle the ball and unlike beverley he straight up SHUT DOWN Lillard for entire quaters like the 4th in game 6 were Lillard scored zero points in 11:59 minutes with Lin on him.
remember McFail caters to Harden 100% and when Harden is gone he wouldnt have to do that anymore.
plus i dont think he can stay the coach with yet another first round exit.
nevermind anyway since they wont trade harden

[SilkkTheShocker]

How does Houston have cap space?

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

knicks should make houston take on felton's contract in any deal for melo.

[Marlo_Stanfield]

lol
we talkin bout the East.
no one there is better than that team if they commit to team ball.
that is if Amare keeps doing what he did at the end of the season which was quality basketball:coleman:

would post that billy madison "everyone is stupider after..." meme, but i already feel too retarded to look that up after your post.

[Marlo_Stanfield]

Parsons is still on his rookie deal but he will demand around 8 million probably even 10 since hes super overrated and someone will pay him that much

[Black and White]

Would be a sign and trade I assume

Hey I don't mind Lin, but going by track record McHale puts him on the bench, thats all, you don't need to catch feelings brah

[SilkkTheShocker]

Lin to the Bucks. Move Brandon Knight to his natural SG spot. Him and Knight combine to form the best backcourt in NBA history.

[Marlo_Stanfield]

yeah McFail is a racist idiot who thinks all PGs should do is play defense and dump it to the big fella but he might be forced to start Lin again since beverley got exposed and Lin saved the Rockets this season numerous times in the Clutch
we will see, i still hope Lin gets traded.
back to New York without Melo, that would be incredible

[Trentknicks]

Melo + Felton
for
Asik, Lin, 1st rounder

Seems pretty fair.

[russwest0]

Morey trying to increase his teams "overall rating" so that he can quick sim to a championship like the Heat do. :oldlol:

Don't be salty your hick owners traded Harden for $0.05 on the dollar, Cletus.

Parsons is still on his rookie deal but he will demand around 8 million probably even 10 since hes super overrated and someone will pay him that much

Agreed. I feel bad for the team that pays him that kind of money :oldlol:

[Dresta]

As if Harden and Melo in the same team is gonna work :facepalm

[Black and White]

Don't be salty your hick owners traded Harden for $0.05 on the dollar, Cletus.

As useless as the OKC management are, they made the right choice about letting Harden go, he isn't worth a max contract.

[Marlo_Stanfield]

Agreed. I feel bad for the team that pays him that kind of money :oldlol:
hes just as bad as harden on defense and can only score in the first half.
but if he is used right hes pretty good and could be worth 6-7 million.
funny thing is he was once a good defender:roll: :roll:

[Goldrush25]

Some people will never learn. Melo is championship repellant.

[secund2nun]

LOL they already have one overpaid overrated "superstar" in Harden. Now they want another "superstar" in Melo? Might as well sign fellow "superstars" Kyrie Irving and Rose while they are at it. They can possibly even sign "superstar" Monta Ellis as the 6th man. "Superstars" John Wall and Klay Thompson can be 7th and 8th man. All "superstar" lineup coming up!

Fck off rockets.

You can't go around signing everybody just because your 2 best players are soft.

I think he's making a joke about how pathetic the Eastern conference is. Hell, that team would get 3rd or 4th seed at the worst.

[Springsteen]

Melo + Felton
for
Asik, Lin, 1st rounder

Seems pretty fair.

This is a great deal when you understand where Melo wants to be at this point of his career and what the Knicks need to do moving forward. The NY fans wouldn't mind either, their boy Lin would be back.

Too bad Dolan would stop it and just force Phil to give Melo the max :facepalm

[Marlo_Stanfield]

So far Dolan's kept his promise and Phil's indicated he's happy to move forward rebuilding with or without Melo.

I'd be happy with that deal.

[UK2K]

Please ship out Lin.

Id do a Lin/Parsons/Asik and a second for Melo.

Bev
Harden
Vet (Carter, Deng, ?)
Melo (or PF vet and put melo at the 3)
Dwight.

Harden and Melo get about 18 shots per, Dwight about 14...

Yeah I like it.

Heat sure but then it gets tough.
MAYBE the Pacers but thats it.
Nets are done and the rest isnt as good as that core:confusedshrug:

[aj1987]

whats your damn problem man:biggums:
Lin is an average PG at BEST. He's a decent defender, but not elite. He turns over the ball a LOT, when he handles it for long periods of time. His jumper is inconsistent.

[Marlo_Stanfield]

his midrange is elite and he actually turns it over less the more he handles it.
especially playing PnR:applause:
believe me he jus needs a coach who lets him run the offense again and he will make a steve nash esque development.
remember last season was only his second real season.
he will be a high end player if he ever gets a good coach again:applause:

[Milbuck]

I like Melo, but it'd take 2000 Shaq or prime Jordan to compensate for the bearded net negative that is James Harden.

[Smook A.]

Wiz and Raptors destroy that team without Lube, so do the Hawks. Bobcats would too. Cleveland with whatever they get with the #1 would be better. Magic with some development from youngsters would be better. Milwaukee with the Mallory edens factor and the number 3 pick being Parker would be better. Bulls are still better, nets with b-lo are better.

[Smook A.]

you stanned harden hard all season and thought he was playoff ready:roll: :roll:

Actually I didn't stan Harden. At all.

I just supported him because he was on my favorite team. If I was stanning Harden, then i'd be saying crazy things like, "James Harden is the future goat", "Harden is the best young player in the game"... stuff like that, but I never said those things because I don't stan him.

Melo for Harden? I doubt Phil would be willing to take Harden back though. He's not the guy you want to build around. He's just not.

Sorry Smook, it's true.

Nothing personal.

Ok...........Ok.........

[RoseCity07]

Being serious, I think the best move they ever made was signing Dwight. Dwight really brought it in the playoffs. It's looking like James Harden is the real disaster here if he's your star. They need a guard that can play both ends and is also a skilled passer. James Harden should be a second option. He's too much a ball stopper.

I'd trade Harden right now for a top 3 pick in this draft.

No Harden = No Dwight. Who would have lured him? Everything had a cause in these last 3 years.

Nice try though.

[UK2K]

James Harden is only making 14.6m next season. Let's not act like he's making 30m like Kobe or 23m like Joe Johnson.

Any team in the league would love to have the #5 player on the MVP ladder for 14.6.

Top 5 MVP Ladder 2013-14

Player - 2014/15 Salary
Durant - 20m
Lebron - 21m
Griffin - 18m
Noah - 13m
Harden - 15m

Yeah.....

[RoseCity07]

No Harden = No Dwight. Who would have lured him? Everything had a cause in these last 3 years.

Nice try though.

I think the city lured Dwight. Houston is a good city, the Rockets are a great organization, the GM is known for building around a top center, and he can work with Hakeem. James Harden is not the draw. You think Dwight wasn't pissed when Harden was shot jacking instead of feeding him in the 4th? Dwight wants the ball.

[Rocketswin2013]

There is no legitimate argument for saying James Harden is a bad star, or not a good, or wtf ever derogatory narrative you can possibly make, without trolling.


Literally none. If you're going to say that shit you might as well type and troll like Marlo Stanfield. Literally the only way you can not get an argment out of me.

Yeah I mean how's Westbrook or PG playing in the playoffs?

Harden is 24. Him, Melo, and Dwight would shit on people. Maybe not year 1, but certainly sooner rather than later.

That team would still get wrecked by the Clippers, Spurs, and Thunder. I don't see Melo wanting to go to Houston either. There's only one ball. He didn't even like playing with Lin. Imagine how he'll feel playing with Lin and Harden. You don't want to be paying the max to both Harden and Melo. They are both worth the max on the open market, but it would be really dumb for one team to be using up that much cap space on these two guys.

He took 21 FGA per game on a team completely devoid of any other good players, do you really think if he took 18 per on a team with harden and Howard he'd cry?

I mean 3 shots is a lot I know but...

[Black and White]

Cool PG had one good game too..

Are you suggesting Harden is on Westbrooks level???? Just clearing it up.

[SwishSquared]

If Melo is traded prior to the draft, he can then opt-out this summer and re-sign with the Rockets for a 5-year deal right?

[UK2K]

Are you suggesting Harden is on Westbrooks level???? Just clearing it up.
No. Just saying WB and PG haven't exactly been tearing it up this offseason.
