If they are truly doing that they are both dumber than I thought they were.

; But yes, they are considerably dumber than anyone thought

What does Durant care? He's not playing this year lol. Sure, bring in Melo...I'll wave to him from behind the bench.

This would be great fun: good move, Nets... go for it.

Full disclosure: I'm now a Kyrie hater and rooting for the Nets to fail.

Anything that keeps him away from the Wells Fargo Center is good by me.

lol Melo is never playing in the league again... Team USA didn’t want him!

 

[broncosmitty]

Does he straight up refuse to come off the bench?


I haven't folllowed his offseason chatter. But he should be a Laker imo. 8th man.


Rip Hamilton agrees.

He’s a locker room cancer and a distraction. I wouldn’t want him as my towel boy because he would probably start shit with players about not folding the used towels after games.

Depends on team needs and what kind of deal you can get him on, imo.

He's old and not what he used to be as a player, but he can still score. If a team needs scoring off the bench and he's willing to accept that or a similar role, then it could work. If a team can get him on a deal like the Lakers got with Dwight, it would be worth a shot.

Theoretically, yeah.

In reality... it just seems highly, highly, highly unlikely that a leopard like 'Melo is gonna change his spots.

But anything is possible, I suppose... and hope springs eternal.

Personally, though, I'm surprised with the amount of people who still seem to be intrigued with the idea of Anthony being a net positive to any degree, no matter how small.

I think that's part of the problem...Melo thinks he's still a starter in this league and clearly he's not.
