      New conspiracy theory I'm throwing out there.

      DWade signs with the Thunder, PG goes to LA in the offseason leaving a spot for LeBron to come to OKC to get together with Melo, Wade and Russ.

          Unfortunately it's incurable. Such a terrible disease.

              That's true. He was diagnosed when he was 16.

                  Yep. Mr. Team now.

                  I think Melo is better than fans give him credit for, but he's a me player and now that he's with friends, he will do whatever to win.


                  ...except come off the bench. But it was a dumb suggestion anyway.

                    Saw that quote on the 4, will be interesting to see how it plays out. It's by far the best fit for him at this point his career, no idea why he's been so against it. Not like there are bruising PFs in the league anymore or that the position is so much more physically demanding than the three.

                      I love media day. It's the time of year dudes turn up wearing accessories they're never gonna use again.
                      Why you have that mismatched sleeve though Kawhi?

                        Melo in OKC is still weird.

                        He’s about to be in for the biggest culture shock of his life going from NY to OKC.

                          Lol it's like me creating my guy on NBA live when I was younger. I'd just pointlessly give him abunch of stuff like headband, sleeve, taped fingers and so on, just because.

                            based on the pic I saw, Walter Tavares is 8'5" and will be absolutely unstoppable for the foreseeable future, who else can dunk free throws?

                              I don't even understand why it has to be labeled.

                              Just start him with a 3 and tell him to guard the 4.

                              When someone asks, you say, he's the starting 3 and we think he can guard their 4.
