    Not sure what it is but it's suppose to be huge!

    I'm being told that everyone should look to the sky Monday at around 10:19am Portland time, 12:19pm Houston time.

    Carmello will do something really special for the city he decides to play for.

    Fingers crossed!

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Trying to damage the eyes of the unwary?

    Wear protective glasses, folks.

    Also, I hear that all that announcement is going to do is rule out the Suns.

    WILL IT TAKE 8 HOURS TO DRIVE TO CLACKAMAS? SHOULD ANYONE EVEN DO THAT?

    I hope the sun explodes before the eclipse.

    WAIT A SEC!!!!!!!! Are you "trolling" us???? Are you trying to falsely lead us to believe something that's not true? NateBishop isn't that what you said The HCP does. Damn Sly, you run this place and you are straddling the line of being "annoying" . Be careful.

    Seems to be a waste to make an announcement that he wants to play for Houston. Did he not learn anything from "The Decision"?

    You think him, CP3 and Harden could play together? Seems like all 3 of them need the ball in their hands to be their most effective. I can honestly say the west is going to be nuts this season.

    I don't know. I don't think he (Carmelo) thinks like that.

    What do you mean? I know it's the Olympics and against lesser talent, but he has proven the ability to play with other stars.

    selling pt is Stotts offense vs D'Antoni's ....he would thrive under Stotts and didn't mesh with D'Antoni in NY before

    Hey, I'm on the Melo to Portland team. I honestly think his low post game would open things up more for our backcourt. Defenses couldn't leave Dame and CJ and if they did, Melo has the court vision to find the open man. Worried it would be a one year rental, but If we stand pat, we ain't going anywhere.

    We're overdue for an instant gratification season of testing the contenders...build some buzz...let the rookies get some confidence when he leaves...Swanigan and Vonleh are going to beast one day..Melo might enjoy basketball again..

    Sly is trying to insure we never see Carmelo playing for Portland.

    Bringing up that point seems to contradict what you're implying there. IF he comes to Portland (which I know he isn't), I hope he would change game to reflect more of the way he played while in the Olympics. I'm not sure if he's ready to accept that role.
