Guest N/A Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 Even if the New Jersey Nets do not acquire Carmelo Anthony, they still might pull off a trade with the Denver Nuggets, one that would likely be a sore spot for their cross-river rivals in New York, according to high-ranking league officials. If the New York Knicks send Danilo Gallinari, Raymond Felton, Wilson Chandler and Timofey Mozgov to Denver for Anthony, the Nets are in discussions to then acquire either Gallinari, Felton or Chandler plus Mozgov for two first-round draft picks. That deal is obviously contingent upon the Knicks trading all those players to Denver for a package headlined by Anthony and Chauncey Billups.ESPN.com http://hoopshype.com/img/tag.pngDENVER NUGGETS, NEW JERSEY NETS, NEW YORK KNICKS, TRADE, CARMELO ANTHONY, RAYMOND FELTON, WILSON CHANDLER, TIMOFEY MOZGOV, DANILO GALLINARI | SHARE http://hoopshype.com/img/fb_32x32BN.pnghttp://hoopshype.com/img/tw_32x32BN.pnghttp://hoopshype.com/img/hh_32x32BN.png Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JYD Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 The Knicks still need to do what they can to make it work. Melo could be overrated in many eyes (not really mine), but he's a franchise player. When you pair a franchise player (Melo) with an all-star (Amare), you have a much better shot than you do today, and it will attract free agents.But who? Outside of CP3/D-Will far in the future, who else? I honestly don't think the Knicks are a better team with basically just Melo And Stat than they are with their current roster... At some point, you've got to say that they're giving up too much. GalloChandlerFelton1st rd pickCurry's exp contract If that's not enough, you need to draw the line there and say we'll take our chances with Melo's decision. If Melo really wants to be here, he won't sign an extension with any other team or the Nuggets and he'll come to us with a loaded roster in the off-season.

Guru Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 GalloChandler - Even if you get Melo via FA you would have to release him to make the cap workFelton - You're getting Billups back1st rd pickCurry's exp contract - You don't play him anyways So Gallo 1st and Mozgov for Melo? You guys are stupid if you don't do this trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
