Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
Like everyone else said he needs to go to Chicago, that team right now is just a player away and realistically they are the only team that has any shot at a title within the next couple years.

Wade would have to opt out and take a ton less for him to go to Miami, and who really thinks that'll happen?

Doesn't matter where "Fat Lazy" go he still won't win a ring. He doesn't deserve to be on a team like Chicago that bust there ass every night on both ends of the court.

Chicago is his best path if he wants a ring. That team dynamic works best and Thibs has the balls to put him in check if need be. With his presence there Chicago has the leverage to sign a few role players. Plus as NBA fans we should want this. Chicago vs. Indiana vs Miami :ohlawd:

Lakeshow is not an option there's no defense,center or coach to help him (D'antoni again? :beli:) Plus the fan base would drive him out in 2 years. He's not gonna play second fiddle to Kobe, the management can't build for a few years etc. etc. etc. Honestly, no one can go to LA until Kobe is retired for at least 4 years because everyone will be held up to his standard.


He won't go to Miami. If he wanted to team up with Bron he wouldn't have signed that extension with Denver.

He can stay in NY and just be the man. They gotta lose Stat and rebuild around him and Tyson Chandler but Stat's contract is weighing that situation down and that locker room is a mess.

Houston/Portland/Clippers/Golden State/Dallas: :patrice:they'd have to make a good case but him on those teams would put them on the doorstep of the conference finals or semi finals at least.

I'll throw out a name that hasn't been said:

Houston.

That's if he's really about winning shyt like he's saying. If he just wants to moderately compete and get paid for nothing then he can go to LA & Chicago, he just won't ever win anything. He'll barely make it into the playoffs in LA and he'll be behind MIA/IND until he retires in Chicago. Melo to Miami wont happen.

So it's kinda self explanatory why Houston, Harden/Howard together is better than Kobe by himself at this point or a busted up Rose. And with the way Houston is set up, they could make a Melo signing happen or at the very least trade with the Knicks. Everybody on Houston's cap other than Howard, Harden, Asik, and Lin make less than $2 million. If it just came down to it Houston could move Asik for a straight cash dump and I don't think they'd have much problems moving Lin if they had to, then sign Melo and still have room to improve the bench. The stars seem aligned for one of Melo or Love to end up in Houston, that is if they aren't trying to go to LA.

Looking at Houston's salary book makes me realize how much of a steal Parsons is though, he's only going to make 967k next season.

I was about to post this....good looking breh

Morey has made it clear he wants a third superstar and that no one on that roster is safe besides Howard and Harden......

How are y'all so sure Chicago is the best place for him?
- Cheap Owner
- Thibs' offense
- Rose knee injuries + his style of play

Knicks have their issues mainly Dolan's dumbass but most of the team is off the books after next season and they will have a new coach. I think he's off but I'm too sure Chicago is such a smart bet.
