    Haynes is probably one of the worst writers covering the NBA. I figured he'd get destroyed after his gaffe about Mo. Kinda surprised he's still writing... even more surprised our guys are talking to him.

    The guy is all buddy-buddy with the players. You can see it in the interviews. Completely unprofessional.

    Haynes was a total tool during the Batum negotiations, and he hasn't gotten better.

    It's probably not Melo. I don't think he'd say something like this and then go to LA or Dame and say he wants to play in Portland.

    Whether it happens or not, if true, it's kind of nice to hear that Portland is considered a destination and not a departure.

    I bet it was John Wall and Carmelo Anthony.

    Who cares. with no names attached to it, it's nothing. Just an article to get people talking. 99% of the media articles are just that... they lack the actual content, just speculation and hurried assumptions.

    Seems a message board is the perfect lace, then, for that sort of talk?

    But that doesn't give the media credence to follow suit. They should never be intertwined in terms of the look of their product.

    Sorry, I see what you're saying now. No need to write the article, not no reason for us to discuss.

    Naw, my bets are on Lebron James and Kobe Bryant! Hence the Dame love!

    Durant said he wants both Lillard and LMA with him on Team USA this summer.

    Durant/LMA/Lillard isn't a bad big three. ;)

    Trade Batum to OKC as a part of the Durant deal, because Durant doesn't want to have to carry his team like this every year.

    Plus, there is the LMA/Durant Texas connection. Although they didn't play together as Longhorns, LMA did play a big role in recruiting Durant.

    I could see Kobe landing here. What would it take? Just us willing to take that contract??
