    If he wants a ring going to the Bulls makes sense for one the west is stacked with too many good teams (Spurs, GS, Portland,etc) playing in the east there are 3 teams Mia, Pacers, and Chicago. He can't go to Miami cuz there is no way they can afford the big three plus melo even with pay cuts by the big three and wade and lebron have said they aint gonna take pay cuts so the owner can fatten up his wallet more.

    As for Houston Harden plays no defense he can score all day but stop anybody on def to save his life, d12 is d12, so let's say he goes to the Bulls with a healthy rose,noah, and melo as a 2nd scoring option imo they can challenge Miami and let's say Rose has another freak injury and is out for the season Melo becomes the scoring option that they needed this year when Rose went down and STILL won 48 games

    Sigh. How fuking long do i have to rant and rave about the Bulls. Thats NOT ENOUGH!!!

    So a OKC squad with Durant (better than Melo) and RW (healthier than Rose) cant get over the ? , but that team will!?!? Taj Gibson as your starting pf?...Jimmy Butler? smh Yall so stubborn.

    People have mentioned with the new cap, Miami could structire it so they "add Melo". Well ? forget Melo, if they can afford Melo, how bout they get someone like Pao gasol, luol deng, etc. Their not gonna stand pat, they're gonna get better, while Chicago even with Melo is just a pinch above a lateral move from where they were 2 years ago. So if yall still think the Bulls are the threat to Miami you're delusional.

    With a healthy rose the bulls were close to contending, they had one of the best D's in the league and were #1 in the east. the only thing they lacked was a consistent offenses which he could bring. Problem is to sign him they have to amnesty ? , trade gibson and maybe butler for cap space so there goes some of that depth. but if they can keep those pieces to say thats not enough is foolish. all depends on a healthy rose though of course.

    Chicago, The coaching staff don't SEE eye to eye with management, and Thibs most likely will be gone in a year or two. Going to chicago, makes no sense.

    Houston problem is defense. Attaining a defensive specialist or two, is more logical for the championship aspirations of the Houston Rockets.

    I believe Carmelo is over the super team collaborations. What happened in Miami was pure luck. Bosh was a star humble enough to adjust his game. And DWade injuries knocked him down a few pegs, and he became a 2nd option at best. Which allowed, for the cohesion we now see In The Heats Team.

    The Knicks are heading in the right direction. They have new management On board, whose brand is synonymous with success. Melo jumping ship will be the beginning of the end for him.
    In my opinion, Carmelo understands, if he brings a ring to NYC . It would be more significant then winning multiple else where. Carmelo understands his legacy.

    We have a decent Roster, with a solid system, that could definitely make noise in the Leauge.

    LeBron James just opted out of his deal, Melo had a good meeting with Phil, y'all still don't believe me that Melo and LeBron are signing to NY for a max contract and a ring? Stoudemire is a free agent, JR Smith, Felton will be traded or gone giving space to the 2 veterans, they just waiting it out then Love is joining the vets.

    I thought it was known he was going to opt out. The Heat need to rearrange their finances.

    Amare opted in, Bargnani opted in, Knicks don't have no cap space for Lebron and Melo

    Na, LeBron and Melo going to the same team wherever that is on a max cap contract so whatever team can offer them the max and space with a decent team is picking them up.

    I do not want to see Melo and LBJ on the same team. They are supposed to be rivals imo.

    Forgt the cliche 'they should be rivals' angle, i dont want to see them b/c it wouldnt work.

    Think how much Lebron deferred to Wade in year 1 and how it probably cost them a ring vs Dallas. Part of the reason they ended up winning is b/c Wade declined just enough to where there was no debate on who was best.

    W/ Melo in his prime, and seeing how him and Bron interact, i dont see Bron taking charge over Melo, both on-court and as teammates/leaders. He seems to respect Melo even more than he does Wade.

    LMAO @ the amount of speculation on these ? ' friendships.

    "Lebron respects him but doesn't respect him as much...."

    Don't none of you ? know these dudes personally, nor hang in the same circles to see how they act off the court.

    So when you use "Lebron's personal feelings" as the basis of your argument for him teaming up with whoever... you look ? stupid.

    Foh w/ that ? . They made 'speculation of friendship' a reality when the big 3 came together. When Dwight left LA b/c he didnt take to Kobe's blunt nature.

    If it SOUNDS stupid, its because it IS stupid for THEM to act like that, but the situation exists thus its fair game to discuss.

    B/c if we said 'Kobe wouldnt defer to Lebron' you wouldnt say ? , even tho its the same speculation. The only difference is 1 is easier to spot for a basic mind. But what i said just went over your head.

    Miami wouldnt work and its the easy way out, Houston wouldnt work (not enough basketballs and Howards a ? ), Chicago would be the best place for him to win a championship (healthy Rose plus picking up Love/Afflalo, watch out) but I would prefer that he do the right thing and stay with New York...

    From watching this video (recorded on June 3) I think Melo is staying in NY. Melo just wants to experience the recruiting process of free agency. I hope he goes to the Bulls but we'll see.

    The only thing that sounds stupid is you matter-of-factly acting like you know the nature of their friendship. At ANY level.
