I don't see why the knicks would bite when they have one of the best chances to sign him in the off season. On the other hand, Denver has just over 2 weeks.

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.

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.

2 sources in Melo's camp have indicated he would sign an extension if traded to the Lakers. Secondly the Lakers can deny it to the paper or to the public all along but a trade is getting made that will shake that roster up before the deadline. They just denied all that Artest talk meanwhile the Bobcats were ready to trade Stephen Jackson or Wallace for him until it was found out that Artest has no interest playing in Charlotte. And all of you people who are like Bynum sucks are you just ignorant or do you not watch basketball? He's only 23 years old and has just about more potential than anybody in the NBA. Bynum is a great young asset to build a team around.
