Yeah, when did Yi Fried Rice (oh dear lord, that was so unfunny and racist, got caught up) become this cant miss baller/stud? And when did it become a given that Lebron was absolutely Brooklyn bound? The fact that people seem like a move of such magnitude is a given, makes me think that its going to collapse under its own weight.

(Ignoring your tactless comment.) Neither is a given and I don't think anyone assumes it is. Thinking that LeBron is more likely to come to Brooklyn after this move is probably a valid thought process, though.

You willing to mortgage the future of your franchise on a maybe?

What future did they have with RJ? They weren't winning anyway.
Wishing everyone well. I enjoyed posting here for a while, but as I matured I realized this forum isn't for me. We all evolve. Thanks for the memories everyone.

The move is geared towards creating cap space more than anything else. RJ could have been had for much more if one is looking for actual talent. I dunno, the list of big time players moving through free agency is about as thick as the Obama voting line in the Appalachians.

Again, what does one do if Bron re-ups? Give Yi thirty touches a night?

i don't see why Harris, Yi & whoever they sign w/that cap space (doesn't necessarily have to be Lebron though that's who they're obviously targetting) can't coexist & be effective.

Even if it turns out to be Melo, color me underwhelmed at such a trio. 2nd round team. Its good, but I'm not turning green yet, like MS.

wouldn't be much better w/RJ in the mix over Yi & a bigname FA... in fact i think it would be a lot worse.

Jees you think you could get more for RJ than yi and some cap space. I consider RJ an all star in his prime.

Nets got wayyyy too cute on this one. Vince for Yi and Simmons, or something to that effect, I get. But RJ? This is adding a maybe on top of a maybe (Maybe Yi pans out, maybe we get Lebron) while giving up a definite --- RJ is a baller.
