Sources: Nets, Nuggets reach agreement; now it's up to Carmelo Anthony to say yes

[Jon]

Yeah, he also quit on the team during the playoffs and Melo never did that.

Sure he did.

 

[Jon]

If Paul forces his way out I am done with the NBA. Who wants to watch a league that your team never has a chance to win in, well certainly not me.

Walking away won't help, it'll just cost us our team. Getting vocal about wanting a franchise player clause in the next CBA would help.

 

[QuartertilFive]

Sure he did.

I was there for game 5 and yes he sure did.

I was talking about Melo. He was a playoff disaster in his early years.

Has the Nuggets not realized that they arent getting a better offer for Melo

Cost the team how? I've watched maybe 20 games this year, and I haven't baught a jersey since about '07. I love the Cavs, but until all this BS gets settled with the inmates then F the NBA. I will still frequent these boards, but if Paul demands out then F the rest of the NBA, in fact I won't even watch the finals or ASG any more.

I have watched the all-star game every year for the past 8 years. I am not watching it today.

The Nuggets want Mozgov really bad..............is he supposed to be the next great center or something

And here's a new twist to the Melo deal

Sources say NJ in talks w/Den to send 2 1st round picks to Den for Mozgov & either Gallinari, Chandler or Felton, if Melo traded to NYK

Obviously it'd take more than just you walking away to effect the team. The Cavs are getting fantastic support this year, but the tickets were pre-sold. Next season is the big question mark ...

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.

Actually bigjmac0815 beat me on this.

Are the Nets stupid?

 

[catfish]

No they just want to irritate the knicks

 

[The Voice]

Relax guys it probably will be the Lakers 1st and Houston's 1st.

Are the Nets stupid?

The Nets could net two ex-knicks that are playing acorss the river that would help their team out... It would not look good for NYK's if these guys end up on the the Nets for late round firsts... I love what the Nets are trying to do...
