Melo only has two years left on his deal so I presume he'd just walk or the Rockets are hoping Big3 becomes the new NBA

you literally think a person saying their NBA team of choice being better than the fucking 76ers is a 'schtick'

Did you think he was gonna come out and suddenly be able to shoot or do anything besides pass decently

Dude is gonna bust but it's not really his fault, his qualities were known

His shot is goofy but he's been able to shoot at every level he's played I think that'll be okay unless it's super contested. He should definitely be able to hit open shots


He's more than worth it, good for Harden

since we all know GSW is winning it all, i think getting to the ECF and WCF should be elevated in impressiveness starting this year

who you got?

without doing research and having paid minimal attention to the goings on in the league imma say:

GSW v OKC

CLE vs MIA

because that would be fun and these past playoffs sucked dick
