Melo traded for Schroeder.....hmmmmm

To be honest,i didnt watch much of Schroeder last season,so i cant really analyse this trade....Guys in the house,you can help out...
They got someone valuable for a trash like Melo. He doesn't change anything for OKC except being a great backup for Russ and a playmaker off the bench. He doesn't space the floor but he's decent.

There's nothing to analyse

OKC had to offload $100 million in luxury tax for a supposed franchise player that was underwhelming. Win win situation

Adding Schroeder as the leader of the 2nd unit isn't the headline of the trade

Melo should just get over to Southwest Texas, he did be much appreciated there plus his best chance for a ring.
If he wants to be Dwade's teammate then thats his loss..

Also guys i have my top 5 list of current ballers that i think deserve a ring (thanks GS for seriously hugging these rings!!!) b4 they phase out, they have to be 25yrs up mines:

Harden, Westbrook, CP3, Lillard & Unibrow (Davis)... Wanna put Cousins but i think we all know whats going to happen lol right¿

Who are your top 5?

So many super talents lost on teams not trying at all to improve.

The bar GS has set is so high, if I was a GM i did either lose lottery picks n squad size to get superstars or close to super star mode or just tank and build through the draft but that's a risk that is 50/50..

Also i was arguing this with my friend the other day... Centers are really losing their value, the way NBA is trending, Power Forwards would soon be playing there cos of their mobility and shooting range (stretch 4) and last last starting centers would be mainly for team below the top 8/10..

My question is If U had the chance to sign Capela/Gobert or Griffin/Green Which player would U pick considering ur only center is a mediocre one?

@A40,

Can M. Cuban and your Mavs just stop already? How on earth would you offer Y. Ferrell 2/$5.2 million? Dude was like one of your best players last year. I am happy he has backed out from the deal. I think he will get better somewhere else.

Just watch how melo z gunno turn up in Houston.OKC have a liability in which is Westbrook. Thatz y he ain't Neva gonna get a ring,he be selfish and rash doesnt make those around him better.With PG and melo he ain't even got past d first round loosing to a rookie. undecided

Why do i have a feeling Melo will do well in Houston??hmmmm....

If that happens,then i will conclude strongly that Westbrook is indeed the problem....

Melo chi too strong.
Him own no dey sleep at all.
Am already trying and seriously failing to stop myself from thinking the exact same thing.
Experience as shown us otherwise but sometimes we can help ourselves. He may still even squeeze some cash out of this league come new contract time.

Just like I predicted a month ago, the Cavs are going to build around Kevin Love. Kevin Love has signed a 4 year contract extension with the Cavs.

FANTASY PREMIER LEAGUE FOR THE 2018/2019 SEASON.
THE LEAGUE STARTS FROM GW1 TO GW38 WITH MONEY UP FOR GRABS EVERY GAME WEEK. ALL FPL MANAGERS ARE TO PAY A SUM OF ONE THOUSAND NAIRA (#1000) TO PARTICIPATE IN THE LEAGUE. THE AMOUT TO BE GAINED EVERY GAME WEEK WOULD BE DECIDED BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF PLAYERS IN THE LEAGUE.

Honestly if I was an NBA player, I wouldn't want to get traded to OKC cos of WB

WB is a Ring Material, no doubt but he is too stats selfish...

Am sorry but its the honest truth, I was even surprised PG13 decided to re-sign with OKC considering he is a Calif Native
