word up Blanco. His letter was realness.

home is home... my wife and i came back to akron after college for the same reason... clearly i am several stratospheres away from LBJ economically, but i still coulda made 2x more in silicon valley out the gate - and young 6-figure making fellas add up eventually.. good to see the area get a couple wins lately, even if they aren't in sports yet.

Word. That's why I stated Cleveland is home for Bron As NY is home for Melo. So it's likely, Melo will stay home as oppose leave. But say he does leave, it would most likely be the Bulls. But I don't see that happening when HIM being HOME can make 129 Mill as oppose to away from home, 95 Mill tops. Doesn't make sense and if it's a business, then the math doesn't add up and wouldn't be the ideal business move. Lets Calculate,

BE HOME & make 129 Mill. Hmmmmm

Or

AWAY FROM HOME & make only 95 Mill... Let's see... Away from Home, wife and all that matters and making less money as if I was HOME w/ everything that matters making more?

Yea...

The problem isn't 90+ million. If the bulls could offer the 4 year max of a little over 90 million melo would for sure leave. He wouldn't be leaving as much on the table. It's deceiving when comparing the numbers because New York can offer an extra year at the 4.5% increase. The issue is the per year average. Without a sign and trade of boozer the bulls can only offer a 16 mill per year average with the 4.5% increases. Whereas the Knicks can offer the 20-22 mill a year average max. So the difference is truly closer to 20 million.

Rumor is the bulls have an offer that is 16 million a year with the increases but a player option after 2 years. Which would allow melo to opt out at a time where a new tv deal will be struck the salary cap will jump and the bulls will have the money to offer him the 5 year max contract anyways.

It's more complicated than espn talking about leaving 60 million on the table. That is not accurate and deceiving the real situation.

Yea, Miami's got nobody now. You'll be iight, tho. I heard Miami is talking to Larry Bird, to assist Dwayne Wade and his wooden knees.

Strikta · 07-12-2014, 09:57 AM

Melo grew up in Baltimore.

07-12-2014, 10:06 AM

He considers, NY home tho. I think because of his wife? Perhaps. Not sure but on multiple interviews he's stated NY will always be home for him or some shit.

Strikta · 07-12-2014, 10:08 AM

He was born there, moved to Bmore as a kid.

His fam def plays a role in him calling NY home.

I like the idea of Carmelo going to the Bulls, but all money aside, I trust Phil Jackson. Maybe Carmelo should, too?

I think his ego is holdin him back from doing so, he's surrounded by dudes with multiple rings, and does not have one himself. That's probably playing a major part in his attitude/decision making.

Half Wit It · 07-12-2014, 02:12 PM

Personally I think Lebron is lame and young minded asf for going back, but on the other hand I guess it makes the Eastern Conference a little more bearable to watch.

Allen Knight · 07-12-2014, 02:15 PM

They just said on espn melo staying knicks, he's resigning

The dude can't win.

Kid leaves Cleveland in a not so fashionable manner and is the villain.

Kids goes back to Cleveland despite a fan base that burned his jerseys, called him all types of obscenitys and an owner who basically acted like a 5 year old and wrote a letter like an angry teenager. Despite all this.

He comes back to city because he knows it's the right thing to do.despite what you think of how he left. It's his home.

And Bron still gets hate?

Come on man jesus christ you people need to dig a grave get in it. Dig another 12 feet and just die.

Ignorant piece of shit.

Half Wit It · 07-12-2014, 03:13 PM

I don't HATE Lebron, fanboy. Imo he did some fuck shit. Plain and simple.

Let's be honest, bosh has been playing out of position from day one, he's sacrificed his game the most to make it happen, he's become a paremeter player which is not him, however now that will benefit him... He's going to be more of an impact, well basically he has to be, what I'm saying is, u will now see the real bosh
