A moment of silence for the end of the Football season. …
Now, bring on the NBA!
On top of many more NBA games left to watch and the much anticipated All Star weekend ahead, rumors of trades are consuming ESPN’s switchboards.
The main running headline is that of Caramelo Anthony and the teams that want him. Both the Knicks and Mavericks claim they want Melo. But my suspicion is that their only interested in renting him for the rest of the season. Both teams could use Melo’s skill and passion for the game out on the court. Both teams, however, would have to give up some pretty decent players in order to entice the Nuggets into such a trade.
Rumor has it that the Lakers want Melo too. All they would need to do is trade their center Bynum. But that’s gonna be up to the Lakers GM and The Black Mamba, Kobe Bryant, the main influence on the team. “Might as well believe in UFO’s” appears to be Bryant’s opinion on the matter, but we’ll see. The pattern throughout the seasons has been that the Lakers would trade and such. A fellow fan like me can only hope that those rumors become a reality this time! Can you imagine?!! The Lakers would be unstoppable with Melo in their midst. Ponder over that my friends. If the Lakers were to actually pick up Melo, they’d have the two leading scorers in the NBA. I say we Lakers fans get together and pray our pant-knees off for this trade! No offense to Bynum, but we need Melo. Come on Bynum, take one for the team!
Many people that I talk to criticize Pro Basketball because a lot of players have no dedication to their teams and care more about the money. But seriously, money is what runs things my friends. Few are those that would turn down a pay raise. Plus, a guy like me thrives on the drama of anticipation, possibility, and what ifs. You can never be too sure what kind of AMAZING is going to happen. I say bring it on.
BRING ON THE AMAZING.
