:lol :lol

[Bosnian Sajo]

Yerrrrrrr, scooping him in fantasy.

[LoneyROY7]

Non-guaranteed deal apparently.

[Bosnian Sajo]

Nvm, he was picked up 2 minutes before I checked....****.

[bison]

bLazers hitting panic mode way too early :lol:

[imdaman99]

Now all we need is someone to sign Kapernick :banana:

[FultzNationRISE]

I could see him making an impact for the Knicks. :lol

[k0kakw0rld]

Lmaooooo

[Patrick Chewing]

RIP Portland

[superduper]

Blazers got slapped by the Raps so hard that they signed Melo :roll:

[SpaceJam]

Blazers’ title odds before signing Melo: 50-1

Blazers’ title odds after signing Melo: 50-1

[RoseCity07]

I want this clown gone if he tries any of his lazy bullshit here.:oldlol:

My only way to spin this in a positive is that he can't be worse than Mario Hezonja. Can he? I need to know.

[brooks_thompson]

Wow. I had to Google to make sure this was real. Just laugh out loud. Come on Portland, weather those injuries like a man. It's tough, I know, but don't do this.

So how long til he's cut or will he make it through the season?

lol Carmelo will be attacked nonstop on the defensive end just like he was during that brief period with the Rockets. He's legitimately the worst defensive player in the league.

Well I'm not looking forward to that. Nassir Little held Siakam to 6-18 last night. When Hezonja came in the game Siakam went 9/10.

Can Carmelo do better than giving up 9/10 on the defensive end?

[stalkerforlife]

They're 4-8.

Can't hurt to try.

The main reason the Jazz beat OKC in the playoffs was Carmelo's D

[Doranku]

Just what the Blazers needed, another chucker who doesn't play defense. :lol

[Dr. Cheesesteak]

Holy shit, Blazers for sure now not making playoffs. GM probably too dumb to trade Dame and CJ and build around Nurk, Simons, and ZC, and whatever haul they'd get in return.

Oh well, anyway, how about the new West? 3 new teams in playoffs for sure, possibly even 4! GSW, OKC, Por are out. SAS maybe the 4th, sadly (rooting hard for them). But should be an interesting season, to see Minny, Pho, Dallas, and Sac to try to fill in 2 or 3 spots.

[scuzzy]

lets vote him into the All-Star game

[coin24]

It's about damn time !!!! FU*K YES!

[Celtics 1825]

This just killed any playoff hopes they had :roll:

How is that? They are failing to close out games. They won't have their starting front court until February.

If Melo comes in and plays like shit it doesn't really change anything because we have two bench players doing that already. Mario Hezonja is ****ing terrible. Same with Tolliver.

[yeaaaman]

Exactly. People are just saying sh*t to say it for the most part. They weren't storming their way to the palyoffs anyways and I doubt he'll be a 40mpg player. If he isn't good do these morons think they're going to continue to march him out until game 82 playing 35mpg?

I'm going to sit back and see how his 15mpg plays out and if he can still be effective in any way. If it works maybe he'll get more minutes, if he doesn't he likely won't. He ain't making or breaking they're season, they already went 4-8 without him.

[Smoke117]

If nothing else, peromantic is jizzing in his shorts. He is having a field day right now I'm sure. :oldlol:

[ImKobe]

Took him long enough, glad it's a potential Playoff team and not the Wizards.

[HylianNightmare]

By the jerseys while you can

[Meticode]

Are the Blazers ****ing blazing? Within a few months Lillard will be doing this to Melo...

[PeroAntic]

He will have something to prove. when a legend like Melo plays with a chip on the shoulder, I think we are going to see a renassance of his game. Only dilemma is whether he thinks that he can still play while being fat. because if he does its gonna be a disaster.

[Jay-B]

Lol u think they will let him take the last shot? You know he’s going to want to with his 50 pump fakes

[Haymaker]

Melo will be playing PF, hopefully off the bench. He just needs to not suck on defense while spreading the floor a bit. He can do it if he swallows his overweight ego.

when did he not suck on d though? He will be put on an island and attacked relentlessly

[Wally450]

So long Portland's playoff hopes. Why would they make this move?

[eliteballer]

The biggest question is how bad is his defense.

[Artillery]

So long Portland's playoff hopes. Why would they make this move?

They're sitting on a 4-8 record and are looking for any sign of hope to turn the season around. I don't think is it but we'll see

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Coming off the bench and embracing his role... If Melo does that, the only downfall here is on defense.

defense is only half the game! :lol

[kuniva_dAMiGhTy]

Yeah, well, he wouldn't be the only player useless on that end.

They look like ass at 4-8 right now, not exactly a high and mighty position. They need some firepower

[tanibanana]

Will he play today?

[RoseCity07]

Will he play today?

No. I think he'll miss Monday too.

[tanibanana]

No. I think he'll miss Monday too.
Thanks...

[brooks_thompson]

I'm guessing he's not available til Tuesday due to getting some last-minute lipo
