Carmelo Anthony could force trade to New York Knicks

^ I see where you're coming from, but at least Melo is giving them a chance to actually acquire some pieces for him. And besides LeBron making a bunch of money for the organization last year, what else did he do for them? They got eliminated in the second round.. And I don't remember there being anything in Melo's contract that said he could only go to the Knicks, there's probably plenty of large market teams that would give up prospects for Melo. I don't agree with what either guy is doing, but LeBron's seemed way more classless to me (which is saying something)

A writer from the Denver Post said that this in no way is as big as the LeBron deal. Now within the Nuggets org, this is like Armageddon, but for the fans, Denver is a football town that got lucky that the Detroit Pistons were dumb enough not to pick up 'Melo, and Denver is a city that has won titles in other sports so they are not going to be as mad. In Cleveland, they are a whatever team has the best chance of winning a title because none of my teams have even a snow balls chance in hell, except for the Cavs who are lead by our hometown hero. Then the hometown hero stabbed us in the back, and is now talking shit about never liking Cleveland. There's a huge difference.

I'd say it's the same. Melo bailing out now cancels out the hour long decision show LeBron had & he's going to play with Amare, which is more help.
& let's be real, I wouldn't be surprised to see CP3 heading to NY next season either. Basically the EXACT same thing LeBron did; but since it's LeBron & there are "LeBron>>>" talks, you guys run & make it seem different.
Let's have an unbiased viewing of the situation at hand; it wasn't like Lebron said "I'm without a doubt coming back to Cleveland", he took his time played it out & made you all sit & watch & it made you sick, but in the end just the fact that it aggrivated you so much to see & hear about him everywhere you turned that made you hate it when he ran to his best scenario & given the chemistry is there will beat the Lakers in the Finals lol.
If a week after he lost to Boston he said, "I think I'm going to play in Miami with Wade" & wasn't on TV, you'd still hate on the decision. But if he came out & said, "I'm going to New Jersey with Jay-Z" you'd respect the decision because as a Lakers fan or any fan of a competitive team, you know him playing in NJ can't hurt you.
Bottom line, you're all just mad that he's in the world's greatest scenario to win a title besides play with Kobe in LA; when in reality Melo is doing the same thing, just situating himself in his best possible scenario.
BOX5 the best poster on this site yell:
man if i was in nuggets management i'd laugh at this equal for being a bitch like alot of the 03 draft class,then ship his ass off to the clippers for some of they good young talent and draft pics without giving his ass the extension, i mean really how you gonna ask for an extention and a trade hahahaha,tell a equal he a star now and he goes extra diva, may not be no labron shit but fucc wanting and extension and a trade would even make labron say damn even i ain't do no bitch shit like that yell

WTF are you talking about. No, LeBron waiting until the last minute, and the Cavs getting nothing is far worst than giving a team a year long notice so that they can take their time and handle the situation correctly. I mean, seriously, are you truly trying to argue this point when you know damn well what LeBron did was cripple his team and gave them no other options. Within a few days the Cavs lost their star player, their starting center and their back up center all because of LeBron decision. Carmelo is still thinking things over, and Denver is preparing for the worst, and they know that if they play their cards right they can get something back. Cleveland was not given that chance as LeBron didn't talk to anybody and he played it to fit his ego, Carmelo is trying to get LaLa back into the NYC. I can't believe you are even trying to argue this.
