ESPN tweet, source probably incoming:

Lakers will offer Carmelo Anthony a max four-year, $95 million contract.

Interesting, but I'm not sure he'll enjoy playing second fiddle to Kobe while he guns his way up the all-time scoring list. If he doesn't somehow end up staying in New York, I'd probably say Houston at this juncture.

I find this idea amusing, two of the biggest ball thugs teamming up together. Hey, while you are at it, trade for Josh Smith to complete the ideology.

If you bring Iverson out of retirement his, Kobe and Melo's career USG% adds up to 96% of possessions.

Fuck. Woke up with this thread at the top of my mail. Holy crap.

Seriously, the Lakers are trying to replicate the triangle offense now except there are two wanna-be MJ's present.

I just want this to happen for the sake of the most entertaining basketball ever to be played in history

i dont see how this is news. in other news people still need to breathe to live

It would appear to be narrowing down his choices, if nothing else.

Keep hearing, fwiw, that the Lakers have pushed strongly the idea that L.A. can be "Carmelo's team" once Kobe's contract expires in 2 years.
