People think he'll make any of them contenders? Going to Houston could be dangerous. Chicago maybe if DRose is ever fit.

the way he plays isnt conducive with winning rings imo...

if he winds up in South Beach il be hoping it is but i think we would be better off getting different "talents"

True, but we haven't really seen him in a team with enough solid pieces to be a real contender. Put him with Harden/Dwight or Rose/Noah and who knows. It's a hell of a step up from JR/Chandler.

yeah talent will help his cause, mostly im taking a shot his iso moves that he constantly goes to, dont get me wrong he is a fantastic shooter, he takes difficult shots and makes a lot of them, they arent the shots id want to be relying on in The Playoffs, easy to defend...

Chicago with Melo is a contender. Just remember how bad the East is, their only challenge will be Miami and after what we saw in the finals, I think the Bulls have a legit shot of making the finals.

We've already seen how elite their D is, but with a Melo/Rose combo we can see some serious firepower on the offensive side of the ball too.

I don't think Melo to Houston is a good move for either party...

Chicago/Melo will make them a more difficult team to eliminate, Rose has to be at least 75% of the MVP Rose to challenge tho... http://espn.go.com/chicago/nba/story/_/id/11154920/derrick-rose-recruiting-carmelo-chicago-bulls-not-my-job <--that does not help Chicago's cause
Melo and Harden together ??? may as well get the other three to stay back on D while those two workout who gets to iso n jack up jumpers :P


what u saw in the finals wont be the same Miami for season 2014-15, im excited to see how "serious" they r about getting better, if they all come back on like 15mil each thats not "serious" imo, Wade needs to take less than 10 imo, Duncan is taking 10 and look at what he gives that team...
couple of interesting theories here

Nerlens Noel: 'I think (Embiid and I) will be a really good tandem, kind of like Duncan and Robinson.'

lol.

Apparently Boston are the first team to enquire about Isiah Thomas... Lol wut.

Smart and Rondo isn't a good enough PG combo? ::)

Isaiah Thomas has received interest from the Boston Celtics, Dallas Mavericks, Golden State Warriors, Miami Heat, Detroit Pistons and Phoenix Suns.

Thomas is a restricted free agent, giving the Sacramento Kings the ability to match any offer sheet or execute a sign-and-trade.

Thomas was a second round pick in 2011 out of Washington.

Why Boston though... Highly doubt Ainge is that silly to go after another PG, especially one that isn't even 6ft tall.
