    I do, unfortunately....cost the Raptors in a crucial playoff game when he took too long to get to the scorer's table as a sub.

    He has four rings already. He doesn’t need to go chasing.

    And we have no idea whether any of those teams even want him. (The Celtics are the one I’m most familiar with, and he would only fuck up Rozier’s development there.) Might as well pad the old bank account.

    Instead of guaranteeing the women 30% of revenue, they should get 50% of the profit. 30% of something is _________ than 50% of nothing.

    But he never won the Flint, Michigan Mega Bowl

    As much as I would like to think Melo could take the pay cut and be the 4th option on a team and only score 12-15 a night and then slide to the bench when Cousins comes back and then be part of a strong second unit on their way to an easy title, deep down I know that probably wouldn’t happen.

    They probably don’t want him. He’s just not very good. His best asset might be mentoring young guys, and $10 mil is a lot for that.

    Ohhh, I don’t think he’d score 12-15. Wouldn’t play enough to. Plus his defensive effort has gone really low, and that would be an issue.

    I’d think they would play Melo as a 4 on D with Durant guarding the 5, or done defense where he is down low more.

    I think your typo describes Melo's game more accurately.

    True. I would hope he sees what West and Iggy have donevin GS.
