Cavs out here looking like Alpha Flight.
LOL!
Melo is washed up, I had high hopes for him coming to the Rockets but he has the worse defensive rating on the team. If he can't knock down shots, hes a major liability. He shouldn't even be the 1st person coming off the bench.
Another thing, CP3 is on his last leg too. It was a big gamble giving him that contract & it look like dude fleeced the Rockets big time. I thought we could get one or maybe 2 good years out of him on that contract but it's not looking good.
Rockets have the oldest team in the league & its showing. Athletic teams with less talent are just out hustling them & blowing by them. I don't see how Daryl Morey can fix this mess. It feels like they're still emotionally drained from that GS series.
Y’all shit over with
I would shop harden for like all of Boston younger pieces or lakers
Melo is not the biggest issue on that team. Letting Ariza and mbah a moute walk is. They were the defensive gel on that team.
I think it shows what happens when you don't really take care of your body.
I thought Melo's game would age good because he never had any major injuries and he never depended on his speed.
and yeah I knew the length of CP3's contract wouldn't be good, because of his height and age. One thing is he was always a good defensive player and as he gets older his defense is going to slip. You can't have two bad defensive players in the back court.
Jimmer Fredette scores 40 in 4th, 75 overall in Chinese Basketball Association game
Former BYU star Jimmer Fredette scored 75 points in a Chinese Basketball Association competition Sunday, a new career high for the ex-NBA journeyman who is currently playing his third professional season in China.
After a slow start, Fredette found his groove and went on a scoring spree in the second half of the game, getting 40 points in the fourth quarter alone to set a new league record.
However, Fredette's performance wasn't enough to lead his Shanghai squad over host Beikong in a 137-136 loss. After Fredette scored on an acrobatic layup to put his team up by two with 7.2 seconds left in the game, Shanghai couldn't stop Beikong's Pierre Jackson from draining the game-winning 3.
"Absolutely sick about the loss tonight. But what a game it was! Proud of our guys for fighting back," Fredette wrote on Chinese social media after the game.
Since joining the CBA in 2016, Fredette has drawn many Chinese fans with his scoring ability and affable personality; Shanghai Sharks fans have given him the nickname "the Lonely God." In his inaugural season, Fredette scored 73 points in a double-overtime game, a record he held until Sunday.
This season, he's averaging 38.3 points per game and is leading the league with 3.9 steals per game.
After being named the Naismith college player of the year with BYU in 2011, Fredette was the 10th overall pick by the Milwaukee Bucks in that year's draft, but he never matched his college success in the NBA. The 27-year-old has played for the Sacramento Kings, Chicago Bulls, New Orleans Pelicans and New York Knicks.

The Celtics they have the pieces but they have a few flaws. The east is their's to lose.
The Raptors may win the east. Right now best team. Could make history for Canada if they make the finals.
The Bucks will be a top four team with a MVP type guy.
The Sixers will be better with Jimmy.

Melo might be getting waived. 
Damn, who would want him.
I don't think so
They don't have the chemistry they did last year with fitting in Hayward.
I think it's Toronto's

But I'll take the win. The 2 big men are the only Lakers that bring it every game. Compton's in the house.
Chandler won the lakers game. But Bron signed Tyson so Bron really won it.
Bron called James jones and told him to speed up releasing chandler
Shit is absolutely disgusting
So you are or aren't a Bron fan? You gotta make up Your mind Manny.
And since when are you hating on a young nigga making power moves? Bron a Boss.
How u help a division rival?
How is this not gonna be disciplined?
Cause it’s Lebron?
Can u imagine the pistons speeding up releasing Dennis Rodman cause john salley said so?
Gtfoh
With McGhee and Chandler the Lakers have 48 minutes of rim protection. The Lakers still need help and depth at PF.
You wit Bron or not Manny!!?
Listen here muthafucka, Like Johnny Cochran told Chris Darden, "Pick a side!!!"..
#DaProcess
So you're a Chicago fan again?
He was trying to get a lane violation.
Lebron/Ingram and Kuzma

Man Alaa Abdelnaby was about to take off the headset and walk on the court and punch dat nigga he was so pissed.
