galinari was overrated. chandler and felton were gone next year regardless. muskgov or what ever his $*@%%#* name is was trash on a stick.

new york basically traded galinari and trash that wasnt gonna be here next year for arguably a top 5 player and chauncey billups who is still better than felton.

next year they can worry about filling out the roster. and they still have a chance to get williams or paul in the future.

are you guys just mad because its the knicks? or that the east is getting stronger?

in the meantimes carter and balkman are servicable reserves. sheldon williams is just trash.

oh and 2 2nd round picks?? really? you can get better players from the dleague than 2 second rounders...

to me this trade was a wash because none of the trash traded was gonna be on the roster next year except for galinari..

Preach my dude.

What you're saying is true, but, the Nuggets still got a lot.

Considering NY coulda drew the line in the sand and said *%*+ you, this is our 'final offer' take it or leave it.

They did, and 24 hours later, caved and included 2 2nd rders and Moz.

WC definitely won though

However, I don't think the New York overpaid either. They were going to lose Chandler this summer, Mozgov might be a backup center if things work out, Felton and Billups is a wash. So really it is Gallinari + picks for Melo, which is justifiable.

Exactly.
The bigger issue is that Melo put the team through unnecessary financial strain for the future, and this could have a huge impact on the FO if Donnie was overruled in his decisions.

NY gutted their roster for them and gave up all their possible trade assets minus Fields. Denver could have easily lost Melo for nothing this offseason but they made NY cave in even though they had leverage over the Nugs. That team has no depth, no D, no rebounding...how are they a threat to any real contender. Riddle me that.
