Thank you. None of those teams in the West would have beaten Miami
Maybe Dallas, Clippers. Everyone else, nah

According to Sam Amico they never made an offer and may never make one.
Said these contract talks were comletely exaggerated
you guys believe everything
the fact that they're trying to give gordon hayward a big RFA deal to begin with, is the joke. whether they offered or not is irrelevant because nothing can be signed until after the 10th anyways. the fact that they're even in discussions is why we're laughing.
http://sports.yahoo.com/news/source...rdon-hayward-meeting-with-cavs-172304465.html
and here's woj saying it, instead of amico.
Thats funny because I didn't hear anyone specifically state the reason why they were ever laughing to begin with. And regardless if no free agent can sign, there's something called an 'intent to sign' agreement that's pretty significant.
...and basically were supposed to laugh at any team that attempts to make a big deal with a RFA? If that's the case, every off-season thread should just be a bunch of replies with laughing emoticons.

Don't say "let's"
Don't respond if you don't wanna talk about it. Simple as that. Go to bed and let us talk about what we want.

You cant talk future realistically. You don't even know who's on the Heat man.
I will call the Heat garbage when I see a roster that reflects it. In the meantime, you can't so chill with that nonsense

Until game 5 the margins between Miami and OKC was less than 6 points...
Spurs did Miami something vicious.
Like "knock up your girl and make you raise the kid" dirty.

Let's bring this back on track... according to that video.. would you rather have Kevin Hart for 5 million over 3 years with a team option for the 3rd year.. or Wade at 48 over 4 years with the final year being a player option?

I was reading an article earlier about why Carmelo should consider the Mavericks, and just curious what everyone thinks of the main points brought up.
A) Carmelo has never played with (And may never play with if he doesn't join the Mavericks) a player like Dirk Nowitzki, who is as unselfish is can be, willing to take a substantial paycut in order for him to come to town, and is willing to let him take over the franchise. Of the teams being considered, Dirk is the only NBA Champion of the Superstars persuading Melo. Dirk could still take over on nights when needed, but the franchise will be Carmelo's.
B) The Mavericks also have one of only four active coaches who have won an NBA Championship (Carlisle, Pop, Spo, and Doc). Not only that, but Carlisle is one of only two coaches to beat the Heat in the Finals, and also that Carlisle pushed the Spurs further than any of the other teams they faced this year. Lastly, a tandem of Carmelo and Carlisle would mean neither one of them is undermanned. Carlisle would have all the assets needed to put together a championship team, and that Carmelo would have the coach that could guide him to a championship. Not just that, but Carlisle has proven to turn players with bad reps into guys with good reps (Just look at OJ Mayo and Monta Ellis after some Carlisle coaching). Also, getting the most out of his bench players (Brandan Wright, Blair, DeShawn Stevenson, Peja, Brian Cardinal, etc).
C) Dallas' brass has shown their willingness to make changes to compete for a Championship, and making the right moves to stay in contention. Bringing up the fact that they've been in the Playoffs 13 of Cuban's 14 years; bringing up the fact that they've been to the Finals twice, winning once without a player anywhere near the caliber of Carmelo Anthony as the first/second option. Also they mention that the other two possible destinations for Melo have seen Chicago play 23 Playoff games since 2011, but Derrick Rose, their superstar, has only appeared in one, and that Houston has won one playoff series in sixteen years.
D) Lastly, the culture. Probably most important. Dallas isn't known as a city for it's bafoonery. They avoid it like the plague. The only issue they have ever encountered is their owner is outspoken. There's no back-stabbing, unloyal players, or shady staff/personnel. It's a professional team about winning basketball games that hasn't had a lick of any drama or controversy since Cuban and Dirk have been the faces of the franchise.
To me, it brightens my thought of Carmelo in Dallas. A core of Tyson, Carmelo, Dirk, and Monta is much better than what we had in 2011, plus with that core, it would be much easier to persuade talents to come to Dallas cheaply like a lot of very good role players have recently to teams like the Heat, Thunder, and Clippers.
The two biggest points to me is Carlisle and Dirk. Carmelo might never have the opportunity to work with a coach as good as Carlisle, and will most likely never play with another player as unselfish as Dirk is.
Houston is a great destination as well, but they don't have a HC that is proven, nor a player like Dirk who has already reached the mountain top.
