LeBatard on radio : Riley has been discussing sign and trades today with teams!!!!

[3LiftHeatCurse]

HE JUST SAID IT ON THE RADIO. Pat Riley has been discussing S&T's today with teams.

Obviously Wade is not going anywhere. So this means BOSH.

Bosh S&T to HOU, Melo to Miami?

McRoberts replaces Bosh then. Much cheaper.

[3LiftHeatCurse]

RUMOR IS 3 team trade with the Heat, Knicks, Rockets

Heat get Melo
Rockets get Bosh

[aj1987]

I do NOT want Melo on the team with LeBron and Wade.

[Levity]

Lin to Miami?

[Nash]

feck no, Miami need Bosh, not Melo no defense.

If this happens I'm sure Miami will be worse.

The only person they should be looking to trade is Wade. Lebron, Melo and Bosh is better than 3 perimeter players.

RUMOR IS 3 team trade with the Heat, Knicks, Rockets

Heat get Melo
Rockets get Bosh


and Knicks get?

[NumberSix]

I'd rather have Bosh than Melo.

[Derka]

RUMOR IS 3 team trade with the Heat, Knicks, Rockets

Not so much a "rumor" as "we made this up and call it a rumor" :lol

[qrich]

That panic.

[r15mohd]

i say throw NYK out the mix.
straight up between Houston and Miami

Bosh and Cole for Asik, Lin and a pick

[NumberSix]

and Knicks get?
the money, long time no cash

[3LiftHeatCurse]

and Knicks get?

he said the details are still being worked out but the main framework is there and that Riley has been working on it today

which means McRoberts was signed because he is Bosh's replacement.

[The Choken One]

I do NOT want Melo on the team with LeBron and Wade.
The amount of carrying LeBron will have to do will be nuts.

[Derka]

i say throw NYK out the mix.

Asik is a Pelican now. Try again.

Edit: whatever the f*ck that team in NOLA is now.

[qrich]

Asik is a Hornet now. Try again.

Pelican you mean.

[RoundMoundOfReb]

They should sign Okafor.

Napier/Cole
Wade/Allen
LeBron/Granger
Bosh/McBob/Beasley/Granger
Okafor/Bosh/Oden


Not bad.

[tmacattack33]

This is too confusing and there's too many ****** twitter analysts posting random stuff.

We should just all leave and come back in two weeks and see what has happened.

[DMAVS41]

and Knicks get?

cash and some future picks like always in these situations. Melo is a free agent so it's not like the Knicks are trading him or something in any real sense.

It's just them getting a little something back rather than just losing him completely.

If this happens of course...no idea if it will.

[Take Your Lumps]

McRoberts replaces Bosh then.

OUCH.

[r15mohd]

Asik is a Pelican now. Try again.

Edit: whatever the f*ck that team in NOLA is now.


damn...forgot about that. hang up the phone Rile's

[Derka]

Pelican you mean.

I should probably stop posting at work on boring Mondays. I'm dropping the ball on the normal stuff hardcore.

[Clyde]

i say throw NYK out the mix.
straight up between Houston and Miami

Bosh and Cole for Asik, Lin and a pick


wow you can trade guys twice now?

[DMAVS41]

They should sign Okafor.

Napier/Cole
Wade/Allen
LeBron/Granger
Bosh/McBob/Beasley/Granger
Okafor/Bosh/Oden


Not bad.

Yea. That team will likely win the East again. The issue is just Wade. Is he the guy that played the first 3 rounds of the playoffs? Or is he the guy from the finals that looked old, tired, and lazy?

Because the Heat aren't winning with that version of Wade with the above team.

[NumberSix]

They should sign Okafor.

Napier/Cole
Wade/Allen
LeBron/Granger
Bosh/McBob/Beasley/Granger
Okafor/Bosh/Oden


Not bad.
McRobert's is such a good pick up because he can pretty much put him in any line up when LeBron, Bosh or Wade are on the bench. You could also have a sick small line up of Napier/Cole, Wade, Bron, McBob, Bosh

[r15mohd]

wow you can trade guys twice now?


technically yes...but it's sorted above :cheers:

[Rameek]

So the Knicks are going to facilitate this deal to help Miami and Melo and Houston get nothing in return?

Some of you are brain dead. :biggums: :biggums: :biggums:

[Torious]

They should sign Okafor.

Napier/Cole
Wade/Allen
LeBron/Granger
Bosh/McBob/Beasley/Granger
Okafor/Bosh/Oden


Not bad.

Might as well go all the way and add Melo to the mix. I'm sure hell be happy to play for the vet minimum like everyone else on this team

[3LiftHeatCurse]

So the Knicks are going to facilitate this deal to help Miami and Melo and Houston get nothing in return?

Some of you are brain dead. :biggums: :biggums: :biggums:
Obviously NY would get a player or two back. The Rockets would unload someone that NYK wants or could use. Maybe Jeremy Lin?

Not much Phil can do if Melo tells him he is gone.

[DMAVS41]

If Melo says he's leaving for sure...why wouldn't they?

Teams always end up doing the sign and trade because they get something in return.

[NumberSix]

Is there ANY chance of Riley scumbagging Wade or Haslem?

[RoundMoundOfReb]

Are you implying that Okafor is gonna get a massive deal?

[DaSeba5]

Is there ANY chance of Riley scumbagging Wade or Haslem?

No. I would be shocked if he did.

[DMAVS41]

Is there ANY chance of Riley scumbagging Wade or Haslem?

No way.

[r15mohd]

Is there ANY chance of Riley scumbagging Wade or Haslem?

i wish Wade...not a chance tho

[Blue&Orange]

it was retarded 1 month ago, now it's just i don't even know.

[3LiftHeatCurse]

what if Jeremy Lin makes a return to the Knicks?

that could be who Phil might accept

[Sarcastic]

0% chance Phil trades Melo's Bird rights to Miami.

[rezznor]

wow you can trade guys twice now?
dont think the asik trade is official yet, but i doubt morey would renege on it. nobody would ever trade with him again

[3LiftHeatCurse]

Sam Amico @SamAmicoFSO

[bluechox2]

no incentive for us to trade melo

[NumberSix]

[QUOTE=3LiftHeatCurse]Sam Amico @SamAmicoFSO

[Lebronxrings]

god i don't want melo

Bosh>melo

heat don't need losers and chuckers. Imagine the bricks with wade and melo. Oh lord..

[aj1987]

The amount of carrying LeBron will have to do will be nuts.
I know you're trolling, but Melo with LeBron on the same team without any bigs is just a bad fit.

[Marlo_Stanfield]

what if Jeremy Lin makes a return to the Knicks?

that could be who Phil might accept
the NBA would be awesome again.
Bosh in Houston= super team( with OKC and Spurs and CLippers)
and in the east we have an improved Indiana, NEw York(Linsanity) and Miami team:bowdown: :bowdown:

[Black and White]

i say throw NYK out the mix.

Bosh and Cole for Asik, Lin and a pick

:facepalm

Yeah, I figured this out a while ago. Not responding to Melo posts anymore.

[Torious]

Are you implying that Okafor is gonna get a massive deal?

No, of course not. But unless they renounce one of their free agents, there will be a cap hold for Bosh/Wade and Bron (bout 20 mil a pop) counting toward their cap. So in reality they have NOTHING to work with.. only their exceptions and minimum contracts.

Only way I see any help coming to Miami is by renouncing at least one free agent (Wade?) then sign some FAs+Wade for the available cap space... that would obviously mean a big pay cut for that player.

Then use the Bird Rights for the other two and at last use the MLE.

Don't really see that happen.
