Carmelo Anthony will be a Knick because James Dolan knows he's worth the money in exposure.
If that portly little bastard actually got off his ass and met with Carmelo personally, you know that he's peddling anything to get what he wants.
This is the combined efforts of 3 millionaire brats that will have a bad effect on next season. Potentially even this one.
Regardless of whether or not this is a comparatively ideal(?) trade, I'm sick of our franchise's future being dictated by the whims of a 26 year old pouter.
Charles Barkley just said during the Rookie V Sophomore halftime,
"Why would the Knicks give up ALL THESE GOOD PLAYERS, when Melo will be a FA come the off-season anyway?"
Between the salaries of Melo and his gelatinous wife, there'd be enough money to rid Africa of famine for a decade. Still, it's us bending over to appease a greedy scamp.
Gallo, Chandler, Felton, a 1st rounder and Curry's contract when he could have just waited for 5 months, left on Lebron terms - a decision supported by Anthony - and helped this team - OUR TEAM - be an instant contender with a deep bench and flexibility on the cap heading in to a restructured 10 year Collective Bargaining Agreement
5 ****ing months!
I don't want to hear the whole "we can just fill spots with role players and vets" - that's a cop out on Gallo, Ray and Wil for the sake of someone not even on our team. How must they feel!? That type of idiocy deserves vilification. Those advocating such things need to take a crash course in the pitiable effects of instant gratification.
And what of the deal doesn't go through? We're offering our ****ing captain for this brat!
That'll **** morale right in it's sensitive little anus.
If anything, Melo has ****ed us by helping Denver pit us against other teams.
I can't believe we're going to trade for the prick.
If he comes in and plays well, great. But he's ****ed this entire situation for us.
Next year could have been SO much better. ECF.
Congratulations goes to:
The Denver Nuggets.
Carmelo Anthony

You all got what you wanted at our expense.
