    But he's so lucky. Bet on himself, lost, and still won!

    iirc, Bill was in the new Spiderman movie. So maybe Meyers has an acting career in his future.

    any play involving Meyers Leonard is likely to get stuck and end in frustration

    RA too. No one wants that contract. It's just as bad as Butters.

    Sure they are putting the trade talks on hold but they will start up again after they sit down with him. Now that Melo has been teased with playing on a winning team, no way he will want to stay with the Knicks. This discussion will start back up in a week or two.

    Man, he only played 1065 minutes for the Blazers. I think we all spent over a thousand HOURS talking about him :)

    And IT WASN'T ENOUGH!!!!

    Mainly, though, it's because his name is fucking awesome.

    Actually, we're one of the few teams with contracts big enough to match salary, and with young talent. I'm pretty sure we're the bastards holding this up, and I think Neil is saying "either take Meyers or no deal."

    Hold the line Neil! Don't cave!

    At last count, I believe there are 30 NBA teams. Anyone?

    I'm willing to bet that this is the trade that Neil is trying to make (with us also getting a pick.)

    It sucks because we lose Harkless, but I think Neil is willing to sacrifice Harkless to get rid of Meyers.

    They need to clear cap, and if they aren't wanting to move Gordon or Ariza, that leaves guys like Capela to make up those last few million.
