    Now one thing that my friend told me, that's been mentioned on various places on twitter, that he's heard through various circles, was that D'Antoni is not 100% on board with Melo but Paul and Harden do want him bad and have vouched for him.

    Not trying to label you. Everybody hopes you are right. That would be EPIC.
    It's just the nature of the beast. Someone named 'Burt Steele' recently made a prediction that this
    trade would go down on Monday. Well, Monday came and went and it made him look like a joke.
    That's just what happens when a bold prediction is put on the table. The vultures are circling.
    If it doesn't come to pass the teeth come out. Time will tell, we have a little over 48 hours.
    And if a multi team trade is announced including the Pistons, I'll laugh right along with you

    If it happens, you should post THIS

    If NOT, then this would be wise

    Low level member of Detroit Pistons organization has heard that the head coach of the Houston Rockets isn't on board with Carmelo?

    Who cares if OP is right or wrong. This "info" propelled the Melo drama at least to the weekend.

    I am going to play along.

    What if all of those training videos melo posted were to show dantoni he is and will continue to work hard. I am sure mike was concerned with his work ethic, which he did not have in NY.

    Agreed. The sense of entitlement here is unreal.

    No one has to share info and no ones forcing all of these complainers to read or believe the poster. Some people just have to have something to complain about.

    When/if this happens it will happen. Patience.

    Of course you don't care if you 5 day old login gets heat here. I mean, whaddya got to lose...yolo!

    But, what if the legions of reporters, radio who read cfnet, especially right now, take this news, and like they did with Burt Steele's "tuesday" run with it re-appropriating "BY FRIDAY, per higher-ups in Detroit" and your friend sends you a "WTF, dude" text. What about that heat?

    Let me guess...you don't think it's a big deal, because you know your friend only has watercooler, gossip-and-guessing info in his "low-level" position at Detroit, thus, it really isn't even Melo news worthy of its own thread....and you should just tell us that.

    Sorry, I'm confused.

    I assumed by your "way above his pay grade" and getting "info from a higher up" that he was low level. Apparently not? So he's not low-level but not high enough up to know any details. So middle management?

    I'm so bored these days. :(

    Thanks for any info you are able to share @Pounder

    Don't know why people are getting so worked over. Let the guy share what he's heard in peace. He isn't hurting anybody. If' he's wrong and it doesn't work out at the end of the day it's just Basketball.

    I don't get why people make such a fuss about it. I got inside info before but for the mavericks and I posted here that Deandre was going to sign with them before it was announced (he ultimately backed out of the agreement as we all know). I randomly got the info from a co-worker whose son worked for the mavericks. Random inside info can happen just like that. You have to take it with a grain of salt.
