The Carmelo Anthony trade saga is finally over.

The Nuggets traded Melo to the New York Knicks tonight, a league source said. Denver gets Wilson Chandler, Raymond Felton, Danilo Gallinari, Timofey Mozgov, the Knicks 2014 first-round draft pick, the Warriors' 2012 second-round pick, the Warriors' 2013 second-round pick and $3 million in cash.

Anthony will go to New York, along with Chauncey Billups, Shelden Williams, Anthony Carter and Renaldo Balkman.
Anthony was not at the Nuggets' practice as the team resumed workouts following the All-Star break.

Just read a tweet from Alan Hahn saying that Randolph was in the deal. The Denver Post's reporting may not be completely accurate as to the details of the deal.

besides Felton, I think we should be pretty happy. If Billups stays and plays pretty well many may be suprised.

We gave up too much.

We gave up our entire starting line-up and have no size.

Randolph, Curry's expiring, Mozgov, Gallinari, Felton, Chandler, First Round Pick

We gave up 7 players -- 4 of which are starters for us, one of which has potential for essentially one player that we actually wanted.

Denver played this well. The Nets played it even better. They costs us a great deal.

PLUS THE 2 SECOND ROUNDERS AND 3 MILLION IN CASH.....
NO WAY THIS IS WALSH.....NOT HIS STYLE....
ISIAH/DOLAN....

NOW WHAT DO WE HAVE ?
 
Well we gave up a lot. We lost depth, but its not like Dantoni goes deep into the bench anyway. We still lack size.

As long as Billups comes to play, I'm ok with this. As a short term stopgap at point, I like Billups better than Felton anyway.

Hard to Believe

I find this hard to believe. We have in fact gutted the "team." We now have Amar', Melo and an unhappy rental in Billups, plus a solid Fields. We are back into cap hell. When CP3 is available, Fields will be up for a good contract and we will likely be very hard pressed under a new cap. If we were going to give this much up, we should have had Melo all year,

Now watch Mozgov and Gallinari get shipped to the Nets for draft choices and thrive with them.

This is an Isiah move even though Melo is much more than Marbury or Curry.

Prokhorov has become enemy number one. I don't blame Ujiri for taking advantage of a retard with a parrot on his shoulder.


Someone do the commiserations please.

I dont see anything about Randolph. It's being reported as a straight up deal between Denver and NYC. Thats why they are getting 3 mill in cash I believe. To pay off Curry's contract.

ROFL real gm is making me sick right now reading all these stupid no nothings who actually think we got robbed on this deal. we are a much better team right now, and we have something that was most needed, CONSISTENCY.

Chandler, Gallo, Felton, and Mozgov were NEVER going to win us a championship. They were barely keeping us over .500. We have two of the best players in the game and we still have youth. Stop crying and enjoy our awesome team.

LETS GO KNICKS, AAAAAHHHHHH just spent the last 1/2 hour screaming!!!!

To all you that are hating on the deal right now, get over your shit and ****ing be happy for once that the Knicks just got ANOTHER SUPERSTAR, and Chauncey to rent -- And we're pickin up Barron, and we have role players, AND we're gonna get better!!!


ENJOY THIS MOMENT!!!!!!!!!!!
