QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 3, 2014 -> 09:13 AM) I don't think Wade would have had many better options anyway, but Bosh definitely would have. Well his better option would be to NOT opt out, no?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 3, 2014 -> 09:10 AM) I wonder is Wade and Bosh now realize maybe opting out while noble, wasn't so smart. everyone in Miami is at Lebrons mercy right now. How can you possibly tell that guy he isnt getting the Max? and if he is offered and takes the max, where does that leave the rest of the team?

Apparently Wade and Bosh arent really too keen on the smaller paychecks/longer deals now.

i would trade this thread for an old bag of balls

Melo gave Houston 6 hours, and Dallas 2 hours of his time

So a guy heard from another guy watching TV sometime recently that Windhorst said on ESPN that Pau wants to be part of a Package deal with Melo

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Jul 2, 2014 -> 03:27 PM) I'm not really much of an NBA fan anymore. I usually skim through this thread just for the entertaining arguments and people freaking out over whatever somebody else says. So I gotta ask, Where's Steve? Steve is in tahiti. I expect him back tomorrow

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 2, 2014 -> 12:32 PM) I heard in the next 10-15 years Houston's population is supposed to pass Chicago's. TRU is contributing to that

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jul 2, 2014 -> 11:32 AM) Says the guy with "i suck" as a personal description. Which means he can accurately judge someone elses sucktitude

Im just gonna not worry about cap/trade/exception crap. If Melo wants to be a bull, he will be. It will be figured out

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Jul 2, 2014 -> 08:04 AM) I might be wrong, but wasn't it Skiles who wasn't a fan? I think Thibs could make it work honestly. It's not ideal but if that's what it takes to get Melo, it's fine with me. IIRC Skiles and Pax were pretty much in sync with the type of players they liked and didnt like, and JRS was sent packing immediately after he was acquired

i think Pax cuts him too, he isnt a fan

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 01:55 PM) So I guess they will let Melo play with a headband? lol I think they somewhat let that go when Rip Hamilton used it all the time for his mask.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 01:58 PM) You should have added a choice "it's his decision". I liked what he had to say about it that goes without saying, it IS his decision. The thread is asking what you want him to do

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 12:50 PM) And this year? What about it? Am I supposed to forget about the rest of his career? This is just like your obsession with Chris Carter because he started off hot for the A's a few years back. That doesnt make his career all the sudden outstanding Morse is what he is. He is streaky and can hit it hard, but he isnt reliable. If he was, then he wouldnt be on his 4th team in 2 years

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 11:57 AM) The argument about Viciedo's home and road stats deserves another look. What compelling reason is there for him not to perform better (especially in the AL) if he's playing 81 home games in a different stadium? 2011-2013 combined on the road, 523 AB's, 22 homers, 75 RBI's, 771 OPS 2014 779 OPS at home vs. 616 at home, projected over a full season it would be 24 homers and 68 RBI's. Essentially, season after season for 3 1/2 years now he has been a guy who will give you 22-24 homers and a 771-779 OPS EVERYWHERE BUT USCF, when the average for a MLB LFer is closer to 720-730. Not to mention the fact that he's only 25. As a team of radio broadcasters was saying yesterday, it's easy to go out and find veteran relievers in the July trade market, it's MUCH more difficult to find power hitters in an era with less and less power by the year. Another former White Sox who "clicked" later in his career, Michael Morse (and yes, it's hard to separate exactly how much of it was his evolution as a hitter vs. PED's, but clearly it can't be 100% the latter or he would playing at AAA Iowa with Manny Ramirez). Yes, we can compare Paulino to Viciedo or Beckham all we want, but it's apples and oranges. Morse has literally had one true good season in the majors, and has just been injured or in a platoon situation the rest of his career.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 11:51 AM) That wasn't my objective. It was the result

DA, how many times do you want Wite to tell you he was wrong about Paulino? He has done it multiple times in multiple threads. Let it go, stop rubbing his face in it.

Why is Haslem so important to them? The guy is replaceable

Added a poll for funsies

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 1, 2014 -> 09:10 AM) Generally, I like Mulligan, but despite this being super picky, I cannot stand the way he asked questions. Instead of asking questions, he adds his commentary for about a minute and then ends with an infliction. It just is so annoying. I know what you are saying, but it really depends on the interview. Sometimes he does that, sometimes he doesnt. He makes me laugh though, he seems like a fun guy to hang out with
