    We'll see, they have a lot of cap room this summer.

    Smart money is on this imo.

    If I'm the front office I'm talking to the agents to sell their clients on this idea. You lock this entire group down for two years and your odds of winning a title go through the roof. You win a title and the odds of retaining players at decreased vaue increases.

    Kobe is a bad basketball player who road the coat tails of Shaq, Pau, and Phil. If Kobe played with the talent that Melo has played with, he'd have no rings. He's not a difference maker.

    Dafuq? I don't think LA wants the spotlight that comes with a 4-18 team.

    I hate these fuckers now. Will be rooting for this Phil/Fisher/Melo trio to fail.

    Carmelo is the one who doesn't know how to win. I'm sorry if my poor writing skills confused you.

    At its BEST New York would be hellish to play in. Unless its your hometown and even then I cant imagine why it would be enjoyable for anyone.
