Knicks might have deal for melo

[Blazinaway]

"NYK confident latest offer is respectable and could get done for Melo soon. DEN preferred Gallinari over Fields after being asked to choose.

Supposedly Melo met with Knock ownership

It's Felton/Chandler/Gallo/Curry/1st and for Melo/Billups.filler

sounds like robbery/a typical NY rumor... we'll see

If Anthony has basically set his mind on playing for the Knicks, then the deal is plausible. The only other option is for Denver to not trade him and let him go sign with the Knicks in the off-season. This deal, poor as it seems for a star, is better than literally nothing.

Melo may sign with Denver if they don't trade him, he doesn't want to leave the extension on the table. I think Denver would do the deal if Randolph and Fields were also thrown in but that is basically the entire NY team except for Amare.

doubt it. I think he will take less money to walk to NY and team up with amare im sure he could give a fuck about a mil or two a year for a chance at a ring

With endorsements he would get from being in NY he would probably make more money even if his new CBA contract was half of what he could get with signing with denver.

[EL PRESIDENTE]

I dislike Stat and I freaking hate 'Melo. I didn't think much about the Knicks before, but they'd quickly become one of my most hated teams if Anthony went there.

sorta cool though, makes it a team that's just so easy to root against, and with what NYC is givin up they IMO have a good chance to never win a title, love to see them struggle and bicker and have that magnifiied in da big apple! lol

I don't really dislike any players in the NBA...I just don't evaluate them as people, since I have, and want, no personal relationships with them. So, from that perspective, a Knicks team with Stoudemire and Anthony would be fun to watch. Not anything resembling a contender, as they have no real defensive presence as a team and won't have much talent to surround Anthony and Stoudemire...but they should be a fun duo on the offensive end.

Yeah I have similar sentiments. Although I wouldn't mind seeing him in NY or NJ, just because he would be a bigger threat in LA.

Will likely be finished tonight which means nets go to plan b. Portland.

 

[MIXUM]

Deal likely done tonight according to spears.

 

[B-Roy]

The deal is done according to the Denverpost.

 

[craigehlo]

Deal is done according to Yahoo! Minny might be the 3rd party taking on Eddy Curry.

 

[MIXUM]

Like I said...

 

[THE HCP]

All this shit is making me dizzy!

Denver Post:

The Carmelo Anthony trade saga is finally over.

The Nuggets traded Melo to the New York Knicks tonight, a league source said. Denver gets Wilson Chandler, Raymond Felton, Danilo Gallinari, Timofey Mozgov, the Knicks 2014 first-round draft pick, the Warriors' 2012 second-round pick, the Warriors' 2013 second-round pick and $3 million in cash.

Anthony will go to New York, along with Chauncey Billups, Shelden Williams, Anthony Carter and Renaldo Balkman.

Anthony was not at the Nuggets' practice as the team resumed workouts following the All-Star break.

 

[THE HCP]

Damn! I think the Knicks raped the Nuggets!

Damn! I think the Knicks raped the Nuggets!

The Kicks are relevant again. Melo, Amare & Billups can get you far in the East. If not to the finals, to deep into the 2nd round.

I'm glad we're done playing the Knicks for the year.
