Things I've learned the last week or two: the NBA salary cap and it's rules make almost no sense.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 12, 2014 -> 01:58 AM) Nobody has said it's MLE other than that guy on CBS Radio. BTW, that's not the Score, that's CBS Sports radio. Yes. The only reporter who is awake it seems is Woj. Need more info.

The score reporting it's for the MLE. Which would almost seal Melo to the bulls with a sign and trade involving Taj. Otherwise there's no reason to make that move.

Amazing how much the bulls real gm forum is exploding at 2am.

Frank isola saying this means melo to NY.... Lol, not sure that means that at all. There must be ways for pau and melo to come over.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 11, 2014 -> 04:22 PM) We're less than 30% of the way to the length of the 2010-2011 thread. That didn't even include that offseason. Wow.

Maybe just maybe all the scenarios we've discussed are wrong and melo just has no idea yet.

Or the more likely scenario is Lebron is waiting for Bosh to leave first so he doesn't look like the bad guy as much when he bolts to Cleveland.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 10, 2014 -> 10:36 PM) Houston should tell Bosh come now or forget it be a man Bosh! Pretty sure with the parsons offer sheet it's pretty much been said to him already.

Cannot wait for the 30 for 30 on the 2010 and 2014 NBA offseasons.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jul 10, 2014 -> 08:43 PM) Cowley -One NBA insider just said that he's not buying Melo's anguish, and wrote it all off as "the guy just doesn't want to be hated.'' He's leaving NY, and is afraid of catching the Lebron backlash. Which he wouldn't because he's not joining with two other superstars.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 10, 2014 -> 08:12 PM) Aggrey Sam is a good reporter. No reason to hate on him. No we must hate on every reporter who post things that are not pro melo to the bulls.

There is now a car accident outside lebrons house. This s*** just keeps getting better. I'm not even mad anymore. I hope this last forever.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jul 10, 2014 -> 03:18 PM) He probably couldn't decipher his texts. He just couldn't type cause of all the rings getting in the way.

Carmelo is the pretty girl that won't text Phil back. Poor Phil.

This thread is like 25% of the way to the size of last years NBA thread. Edit: Actually after doing the math its a third of the way.

QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Jul 10, 2014 -> 01:26 PM) But if Boras had done ANY negotiating on his behalf, going back to college wouldn't be an option, would it? Signing an agent ends your college status, i thought. That would leave what, Independent league? Joliet Slammers? MLB is different than the other sports I believe.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 10, 2014 -> 11:57 AM) Melo is at the berto center now playing pickup with Love and Westbrook and Rose. Minimum 10 peat there.

Power move by Lebron if he leaves. Heal all the wounds in Cleveland and gain back the respect from people who claimed he shouldn't be ring grabbing when this is an even bigger ring grab than before. I just don't see how he's going to f*** his friend wade over, no way he opts out of 40 mill without assurances from Lebron. I can't even be mad at Lebron for ring grabbing considering I just wanted Melo to leave 60 mill on the table to ring grab.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 09:56 AM) The question is, whether the guy who broke the Kidd story has connections to people close to Melo or the Bulls. Guy has a source inside the nets organization. He's just going with the obvious guess to claim he was right when Melo signs with the Knicks and boast his reputation. He totally got the Kidd thing right, but no way someone inside the nets organization knows about melo and the national media hasn't picked up on it.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 8, 2014 -> 12:19 AM) I'm sure everything he wrote about has been talked about by the posters in this thread and on most internet message boards. It's probably where he got the idea to write it. The Real GM forums have been talking about it a lot.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 7, 2014 -> 10:37 AM) Yep Was it still in comic sans haha?

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 7, 2014 -> 10:34 AM) Not just him at this point. Lebron to Cleveland picking up steam. They finally took down the Gilbert letter off their website this morning. Wait that's been on their website since the decision? Are you kidding me?

All I know is he made it seem like this could take another week to play out. I'm sick of this s***.

Steven A on sportscenter saying if Bosh leaves expect Melo and Lebron to play in Miami.
