    That show got an incredibly long run out of a combination of nut shots and bride falls on ass (falls off altar, falls on dance floor, skinny groom drops fat bride on her ass. etc.).

    I guess some things just have timeless appeal. Personally, I prefer my humor a little more sophisticated, but the people have spoken!

    But they also had Nurk and Davis hurt when they played Portland. The Warriors have yet to play a really tough series in the last few years other than the Finals they lost.

    I had a dream that we traded Swanigan, Davis, Harkless and a 2nd for Melo last night. But then I fell off of a castle and died. So, kind of hoping that doesn't come true. Although after dying, I was reincarnated back into my 15 year old self and got to relive high school. That was interesting.

    Is there something discouraging by this report? I don't see it.

    If Melo goes to Cavs, I think Blzers end up with Love... and Cavs can completely clear salary if LeBron leaves at end of season

    Carmelo Anthony, a 10-time NBA All-Star, has delivered the New York Knicks an expanded list of teams -- including the Cleveland Cavaliers -- with which he'd be willing to waive his no-trade clause, league sources told ESPN.

    After the Knicks insisted that they were unable to make a deal with the Houston Rockets, his primary trade destination, Anthony and his representatives honored New York's request and furnished at least two more teams within the past 10 days, league sources told ESPN.

    ------

    Woj says one of those teams is Cleveland. Woj conveniently leaves out the other teams. I wonder why that is hmmm I wonder.

    Am I crazy for reading that as "he expanded his list - which includes the Cavs."

    He wrote it very.... strangely.

    Story linked says at least 2, one of which is them.

    I agree, when I initially saw the tweet, wondered, is that more than one then? Or is it Houston and Cleveland.

    The real question is, if he expanded his list 10 days ago and Portland is on the list... why is he not in Portland already?

    Woj being secretive about the identity of the other team(s) leads me to believe it's Port hey happy Friday!

    Because NY is trying to get the best deal possible for themselves, and so while they might like any offer we have to them, it's in their best interest to try to drum interest up from Cleveland to see if there is a better deal to be made. Maybe we see leak the other day about him coming here to not force Houston's hand, but the hand of Cleveland(and whoever else may be on that list).
