    Idk about yall but i feel like we have forces behind the scenes tryna stop Melo coming 2 Houston. I've never in my life as a NBA fan seen something like this playout this way. Carmelo was told it was a done deal, now we dont know whats going on. Plus we see videos of Melo working out w/ Kyrie weeks back, now Kyrie's the center piece of talks between a possible trade between Cleveland & NY. All Melo has to do be persuaded to change his mind

    There's no conspiracy, man. The Knicks decided they didn't want to trade him for useless pieces for now and are playing the waiting game hoping he'll expand his list.

    There is too much "not-happening " happening around here.

    Until a 3rd team decides it wants Ryno, the trade isn't happening unless Morey throws in something juicier.

    Its the Knicks FO throwing a temper tantrum trying to get as much as they possibly can out of it. I think they're just playing the waiting game to see if Houston changes their deal OR Melo somehow changes his mind. As long as Melo remains focused on Houston its absolutely inevitable. I'm almost at the point where I believe they'll buy him out simply because they'd rather pay his contract than pay Anderson for 3 years or pay anyone else like Meyers Leonard. Just hold hope that Melo will stay pat.

    I agree though, I've never seen something like this. I assume their jackass owner Dolan has a pride issue and feels like trading Melo for Anderson would be insulting to the NYK...even though they constantly insult themselves.


    Dolan is the type of owner that on the day of the draft is at some concert playing guitar instead of consulting with his staff at the draft.

    I don't see why them not wanting to get nothing for him is throwing a temper tantrum I mean if someone on our team was trying to be traded why wouldn't we wait it out for a better offer?

    Just because they weren't getting Ryno doesn't mean they were getting anything they thought was worthwhile.
