i think we would take birdman's contract if we have to take anything back. it will be a compromise of sorts, because from what i understand his contract is also bad. but he fills a need for us
i honestly don't think donnie thinks about forming a big 3

they just want the knicks to throw in more. they don't save any money in a lakers deal. also bynum can barley stay on the court, you can't build around him.
i also kind of doubt the nuggets would hand him to the two time champs in their own conference. they don't wanna see him 4 times a year.

Well, you'll have to give up something to gain something. I think Brooks can be really good.

[h3]Lakers Shoot Down Bynum For Anthony Trade Report[/h3]
Feb 08, 2011 13:20 PM EST
A report from ESPN on Tuesday indicated that the Lakers and Nuggets were holding preliminary discussions about a trade involving Carmelo Anthony and Andrew Bynum.
"What's out there is inaccurate," said a Lakers representative familiar with the negotiations.
Denver is also in discussions with the Knicks, the team Anthony is reportedly set on playing for by the 11-12 season.
The next 3 weeks will be interesting/frustrating/annoying

Andrew Bynum is Jim Buss' draft pick. He led the charge to draft AB.
But Kobe Bryant is on his last legs. 'Melo is a name that can generate interest amongst the label shopper's town that is L.A.

Melo would be a great pickup for L.A, when Kobe retires in the next few years.
Keep the L.A reign goin on.. but O well

[h3]Rockets Reject New York's Trade Inquiry On Brooks[/h3]
Feb 08, 2011 04:43 AM EST
The Knicks have made an inquiry into Rockets point guard Aaron Brooks, who was recently suspended for one game.
Houston, who completed a major trade with the Knicks last February, have no interest in trading Brooks to New York.
[h3][/h3][h3]Warkentien Considers Himself 'Consigliere' To Walsh's 'Godfather'[/h3]
Feb 08, 2011 05:00 AM EST
Mark Warkentien talked excitedly about his opportunity with the Knicks, but avoided entering the controversy between Donnie Walsh and owner Jim Dolan.
"I have no idea, other than I dealt with Donnie," Warkentien said. "I wouldn't know how much he had to deal with Jim or not on it. That's a conversation above my pay grade."
Walsh's contract for the 11-12 season has yet to be picked up.
"You get to work for a guy you always wanted to work with in Donnie Walsh, and then it's Madison Square Garden," Warkentien said. "I'm 57, and is there anyone in our age group who doesn't want to be a part of the Garden? It's the mecca, and it's New York. It's like, 'Wow.'"
Warkentien has intimate knowledge of Denver's front office and is represented by the same agency as Carmelo Anthony.
"Donnie and I have been talking about working together in New York for a long time," he said. "It's not like this was a new conversation. Donnie flew me into New York right around Labor Day, I spent two days there, we talked at great length about it, and it's been gathering momentum since then. Thank goodness it got done.
"If Donnie's the godfather, and he is, I'm a mere consigliere. But I think Donnie and I have real synergy. I have my finger on the pulse of the west big time, and his roots are all eastern."
Like i said, it's not Knick fans who says this, for all the lurkers
[h3][/h3][h3]Dolan Calls Kroenke To Discuss Carmelo Trade[/h3]
Feb 08, 2011 05:57 AM EST
Knicks owner James Dolan is taking a more active role in the team's pursuit of Carmelo Anthony, calling Denver owner Stan Kroenke directly.
"And I would also think that at this point everyone is looking to take credit if Carmelo comes to New York," said one Knicks source.
Dolan's involvement also suggests that former Knicks president Isiah Thomas is likely advising him. Thomas told Dolan in August that he had received assurances from Anthony's camp that he only wanted to play for the Knicks.
Dolan has largely been a hands-off owner, but he did tell Donnie Walsh not to sign Allen Iverson in the summer of 2009.
Walsh's opinion on Dolan's involvement is unknown, but he could possibly be in favor of the owner trying to make a deal happen.
[h3][/h3][h3]Lakers, Nuggets Talking Carmelo Trade[/h3]
Feb 08, 2011 12:18 PM EST
The Nuggets and Lakers have had preliminary trade talks centered around a deal of Carmelo Anthony for Andrew Bynum, according to sources.
Denver has no interest in Ron Artest and has faint interest in Lamar Odom, according to sources.
A straight-up trade of Bynum for Anthony would work in terms of salary, but other pieces would likely be included.
Talks are in their infancy and Denver remains engaged with the Knicks and Wolves on a three-way deal.
The Lakers, speaking to the Los Angeles Times, refuted the report.
"What's out there is inaccurate," said a Lakers representative familiar with the negotiations.

Isn't there a rule that players on the same team can't be in the 3pt contest together? Of course the NBA would bend the rules for the Celtics.
