    Lebron isn't going to LA to play with PG and Ball especially if Melo lands in Houston. Having to deal with GS, Houston, and SA? Unlikely!

    Not a fan of the Dwight trade. He is a good rebounder that's about it. He offers nothing else to our team.

    2nd pick in the draft, he better live up to expectations or else.

    Lets not act like Carmelo is still a superstar as well. He is nothing more than a scorer at this point of his career.

    A) Harden alone is more valuable than PG
    B) Refer to A
    C) Add Chris Paul and Melo
    D) Lebron is not dumb

    Lebron is going to LA to be a billionaire.

    He has nothing left to prove. His legacy is already cemented as the 2nd best player in the history of the NBA. He can win more titles he still doesn't pass MJ as the GOAT.

    Also if Lebron really wanted to play with Melo, don't you think he would tell Cleveland to trade for his buddy?

    Let Lebron go into the LA sunset and enjoy his empire.

    "I really hope that, before our career is over, we can all play together. ... At least one, maybe one or two seasons -- me, Melo, D-Wade, CP -- we can get a year in," James told Bleacher Report in February for a feature story on James' and Anthony's relationship that was published Wednesday. "I would actually take a pay cut to do that."

    "I mean, we've had plenty of conversations," James said. "We've been together for almost 15 years, so we've had plenty of conversations."

    Lebron alone is better than Harden.

    PG/Ball has more upside than CP3/Melo. Would you rather have a fresh bottle of Ciroc or an aging 2 year expired bottle of Grey Goose:

    So much hype for what might just be a taller Rubio.

    I wished Melo would publicly say "I want to be in Houston". We would end this Lebron going to Knicks, or P.George going to Spurs. We need someone to wear #7.

    Lonzo Ball hasn't played a single damn minute yet, and you're saying he's got more upside than one of the greatest point guards of all time. Just stop.

    OMG you actually watched the video.SMH

    Bro the Rockets got to get Melo first.LMAO!

    You guys are setting yourselves up for disappointment. You act like Melo is in the bag. Just don't get to excited.

    All it takes is one team to convince Melo to change his mind. Then what? You guys are left with a max Harden and 1year rental CP3.

    I know your excited, but this could backfire as well.

    I was talking about their age. They have more upside than an aging CP3/Melo at this point of their careers.

    And CP3 is the most overrated pg in NBA history. Dude doesn't even have a WCF appearance on his resume. Think about that...How can one of the best pg's in NBA history not have a conference finals appearance on his resume?

    Hell Dwight Howard made the Finals with a shitty supporting cast, yet he doesn't have the same respect as CP3 does for being a winner. And this is coming from a guy who hates Dwight Howard.

    Just stop bro

    Go back to the hornets board and discuss hopefully making the playoffs.

    Cp3 and harden are real superstars, MVP caliber guys who consistently win 50+ games a year as the number one option, That's just facts.

    Paul George is one of my favorite players in the game. He's also one of the most overrated players in the game. Dude hasn't been able to lead the Pacers to over 42 wins in the garbage east. He's not elite on offense and his defense while good is not elite either.

    And lonzo ball? lol give me a break.

    You must secretly be a lakers fan.

    He may be good in 4 years but him and PG13 are not helping and aging Lebron beat the Warriors over harden/cp3/melo.
