Can't believe they actually went through and made this. Must be slow around ESPN HQ these days.

By the way, I spun this about 10 times and didn't get the Rockets once.

Ha, same here. I spun it about 15 times and not once did it land on the Rockets. I'm cool with this. The Rockets need a leader and I don't think Carmelo can lead a team.

So apparently, ESPN thinks that Melo is either going to end up on the Knicks, Lakers, or stay with the Nuggets. Awesome.

I got the Rockets once on my third spin. Also, I don't care what Carmelo does, our needs lie elsewhere. Would getting him be cool? You bet. I just don't care.

I got the rockets about 3 times in 15 spins. Then I was bored.

Yeah it's called odds and probability. Knicks are more probable to nail Melo so they have better odds.

They had the lebron/amare slot sitting around, apparently decided to revamp it.

Complete waste of time to use, bigger waste of time to design...espn is stretching to keep that designer hard at work.

Better slot machine ideas include:
odds there is a 2011/2012 NBA season
odds Mike Miller gets another concussion before season is out
odds Demarcus Cousins gets in at least a verbal altercation with a teammate/staff before the season is out
odds Ricky Rubio has seen a Twolves game
odds New Orleans still has an NBA franchise in 2 years

...or if we are talking about Houston:
odds Aaron Brooks is in a Rockets uniform next year
odds we see another sky is falling thread started after our next loss
odds TWill will ever get more than 10 minutes of playing time in a game

I dont care for Melo because he is not going to get traded here!! Nene is who the ROX would be wanting anyway........I would take a hard push FOR the lesser lopez brother in PHX (legit 7ft. Center)......IT IS WRITTEN.

To win on a slot, you have to match across a line. I spun it about 40 times & match 10 times on a line. All 10 times it matched Knicks. One time I had all 8 Knicks showing. One spin almost gave me a heart attack as it showed 3 Lakers.
