If this were Lebron, this thread would be on page 450

Team is whack as hell, especially since Rose will play maybe 6 games. Then it'll be the Knicks all over again.

Better to collude with his '03 buddies and take a pay cut.

I love to see how fans care so much how a team is formed.

Rose, Melo, Noah is actually worse than WB, Durant, and Ibaka..and worse than Lebron/Wade/Bosh...and marginally better, if at all, than Paul, Griffin, Jordan

Who cares how teams join up...I've never understood it.

And then you have guys like KG that stay in Minny all his years...and what do the same moronic fans say???? KG just wanted the money and it was on him find his way to a contender.

Yea...I really want to watch a deplete league in which some of the best players are on shit teams. Yep...it was so fun watching Kobe and Lebron on shit teams in 06 and 07...it would have sucked if they had the best teams in the league.

I'll never understand it...

How is that terrible? Mirotic has all-star potential, Snell is a solid 3 & D guy, Augustin has been very good for the Bulls since signing, and Hinrich/Dunleavy are two solid vets. It's not the BEST bench, but it's solid. Especially if they sign a decent defensive center

Nothing brings more joy to a Bean stan's heart than watching his gawd chuck to the Heavens. 81 nikka, 81. Bron stans on the other hand love everything stacked- pancakes, decks, teams. Different strokes for different folks.

Well, I just meant from a basketball perspective. It's a lot more fun to watch Kobe playing on good teams deep in the playoffs than it is watching him play with scrubs outside Odom and losing in the first round back to back years in the heart of his prime

Call me crazy I guess...

Westbrook and Durant works I dont see why Rose and Melo can't. Its an intriguing duo to say the least.

I dont like recruiting players but players today do it. They are also friendly. No rivalries besides on twitter. It's corny and I liked the old school approach. But what Noah did is right on par with todays players so. Whatever. Not a fan of the new era friendly crap much like I'm not a fan of these dudes wardrobe.

I disagree with a lot of what you say but I love your writing style

Melo would work so well like a defensive minded coach like Thibs.

But does anyone really see Rose coming back and staying healthy at this point? I honestly can't.

Sadly no.


But what do you do? Signing Augustin as backup would be a good idea, but I think he will want a payday and a bigger role.
