    The Blazers, negotiating with Carmelo Anthony:
    Melo: “Would I have to play defense?”
    POR: “No.”
    Melo: “Would I have to pass?”
    POR: “No.”
    Melo: “What happens if I launch a bunch of bricks in the playoffs?”
    POR: “That would mean you’re fitting right in.”
    Melo: “Sweet! Deal!”


    Not sure what happened? That was a tweet I saw

    And to think there were some.... and they know who they are..... that were actually very upset that this thread was kept alive. Sigh.

    Do we still have to play offense with just one basketball?

    Let's use the coming of the Melo Messiah as a way to unify the forum, not divide it.

    Just absolutely poetic in every sense of the word. Carmelo is pretty much gone for good and then suddenly gets picked up out of nowhere, thus putting the cherry on top of this sugar packed, diabetes inducing, pancake of a thread.

    This news made my day. Not for basketball reasons, but for the sake of this thread. My countless hours wasted on this site now all seems worth it.

    I know that’s not saying much looking at your overall body of work here, but just thought I’d give you some much deserved props.

    The real question is will all Melo replays be blurry?

    If history tells us anything, brining in a has-been star does wonders for team chemistry and winning.

    Remember what happened when we brought in Shawn Ke... I mean... Detlef Sch... oh wait. Rod Strickl... nevermind.

    I don't mind the move. It will be nice to get some shooting out of the 3 or 4. That being said this stinks of desperation but at 4-8 we should be desperate to be better.

    When did you last see him play? He wasn't bad last season. Rockets actually continued to suck for awhile after making him scapegoat last year. He shot a career best 49% from 2 point range. He'll have a lot of space to shoot threes with us. I'm fine with Dame drawing three defenders and then kicking it to Melo in the playoffs. Also- Melo can be an underrated defender. And a rebounder.
