Chris Sheridan is reporting that Melo told the Nuggets that he will not sign an extension unless he is traded to the Knicks.

Huh? So if Denver wants to trade him to the Knicks then he will sign an extension with Denver?

I think we win 50 this year. Without him.

Getting Melo gets us into the Conference Finals for epic battles.

 

[pr0phecy718]

think of it as almost being a sign & trade to the knicks

Would Cleveland deal us Hickson for Randolph ?

NEW YORK -- Carmelo Anthony has told the Denver Nuggets he will not sign the nearly $65 million contract extension he has been offered unless he is traded to the New York Knicks, a source told ESPN.com on Sunday.

The source, using the most definitive language possible, confirmed what has been widely speculated around the NBA over the past two months as Anthony has been at the center of trade talks involving numerous teams.

“

Everybody's yelling out the windows: 'Melo we need you in New York.' Of course that feels good when you know someone out there wants you to come and represent their team and represent their city. That's what I took from that.

Cavs wouldnt even give Hickson for Stat

and Proph, you seem to know who everybody is & and they live.

I say don't trade for him. This way we don't give up any chips and then sign him next year, or whenever the lockout ends. We'll be in much better shape then. Fields has really been impressing me lately. He'd be definitely part of a package. I'm just happy that I can watch Knicks games now and actually enjoy the entire game because it's actually watchable.

i just read an article a couple days ago where he said he's still considering denver's extension and he wasn't ruling it out. and that came from his mouth and not sources speculating

 

[ray mulla]

lets get this done already
MELO + STAT =

Team NYK seems split down the middle 50/50 if we should deal for Melo or wait till the offseason. I don't know what we should do

 

[king x riece]

For people like me who want keep Chandler and acquire Melo we wouldn't have enough space to sign both of them. With Bird Rights, we can indeed go over the cap to re-sign a player, but we need to be under the cap to sign Melo. We can't sign Melo first and then Chandler, because Wilson has a cap hold, which would prevent us from having enough space to sign Melo in the first place. We can renounce our rights to Wilson, and then free up the cap hold and have enough room for Anthony, but then we'd lose Wilson's Bird Rights.

I don't think anyone is really split on the issue.

Ideally he waits it out in Denver and signs in the summer.

But, that's a big risk and leap of faith to take. so you probably need to take an aggressive approach to not let him go elsewhere.

I'm pretty confident Donnie will be on top of things and make the correct move.

Wait until the last day of the trade deadline and low ball the Nuggets.
