It is why I am really hoping that LeBron stays in the east.


I just can't see him heading West. The path to the finals is just too damn easy in the East.

Plus I don't think the league wants either one of them heading to the West because that is basically the two best players in the East leaving the conference.

I believe he is going to resign with the Heat and Carmelo goes to the Bulls.

I was just trying to think of the all-star team if they left.

Remove LeBron and Melo from the 2014 East All-star team and it looks like this:

Kyrie
D Wade
Paul George
Noah
Hibbert
Bosh
Paul Milsap
John Wall
Joe Johnson
DeMar Derozan

Oh I read it. And seriously think I became dumber from having done so. Like I lost brain cells reading that.

I thought a team can't trade away its first round pick two years in a row

The trade won't be official until after the draft

Horford was hurt last year, so you could add him. Not exactly making up for either of those two.

Source confirms the Rockets will receive the first round pick from Pelicans next year if it is between 4-19. That's huge.


So you're thinking we will be in the conference finals or bottom third of the league?

The poison pill is that Asik's cap number this season is only 8.3m but he's owed 15m salary. It really only effects the owner of the team.

I want Love more than Melo and LeBron. And I'm a Melo homer.

Obviously not implying that Love is the better player, but I think he'd be a perfect fit to our offense.
