    He's not trolling, but the dude doesn't even know his own players. If you're going to come to another teams fan board and try to have civil discussion, you better know your own god damn players!

    75/82 on what?!
    NYK doesn't want them. They're R-E-B-U-I-L-D-I-N-G. It's not even debatable. It's common sense.

    Clueless Rockets fans think that Morey is the one holding up the deal by not offering Gordon+Ariza. Lmao.

    The knicks already know what Morey is offering. Some of the NGs might change, but no major parts. There is no better deal to fax.

    We'll go do the math then. Without Gordon or Ariza, it would take 3-4 of your cheaper contracts to match. Makes it really tough to see how it could work.

    Maybe Rocket fans don't understand what rebuilding means and what a rebuilding team would value...? Maybe they just need education on that topic and it isn't their fault?

    Oh, on games played. You ignored many points that blasted your argument to a pile of dung and knew that you couldn't argue them, so you instead talked about how many games he played, when there's multiple other reasons that NYK wouldn't take Melo.

    Money wise, i'm pretty sure you could trade Ryan + NGs for Melo 125% +100K.

    Why the Knicks would do that is beyond me. Math-wise, they're better off letting Melo walk for nothing than to take on RA.

    Glad you can spell.

    R-E-B-U-I-L-D-I-N-G does not mean the whole team is under 25. You always have a veteran. i was wrong on my 3pt%, I looked at his FG%.

    This is a mute point anyways. EG and Ariza are not going anywhere.

    When rebuilding, you don't take a player of RA's mediocre ability, older age, and size of paycheck. You simply don't. That's worse than letting him walk. If they had other pieces, he's not a bad addition, but you don't want a player like him eating that much cap space with where they are in a rebuild.

    Thanks for the caps. I can't read lower-case letters.

    I didn't hear him make a point, so "mute" also works.

    I did not read them all. I was wrong on my stats. You got me there. But he is still a good value at $12M off the bench for 20 mins a game
