Report: Carmelo Anthony Officially Traded to New York Knicks

Looks like the Melodrama is finally coming to an end. The Denver Post has the story: “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.”

    NY can’t make any moves this season without giving up equal contract value, so no they don’t. Next summer, 2012, they are ripe for a big move though, basically will only have Melo, Stoudemire, and presumably Fields on their roster.

    Myles laughed at me. Shooting Js is pretty much all Brewer did at Florida..

  • http://thetroyblog.com Ted

    =( Or so i thought.

    Brewer also owns the Timberwolves record for most consecutive games with a 3 pointer. He’s not a great shooter by any stretch, but he isn’t “that bad”

    they will do good, to late in the season tho! Melo should have waited till free agency. THey will still be a east contender.

    Brewer from the field this year: 38.4% and from three: 26.3% (career 40 and 31). Good luck with that floor stretching.

    O, buike would be a great fit for NY if he ever regains his form post-injury. dude can stroke the 3, go to the hole with aggression, and is an above-average defender. BUT, it all depends on how he recovers

    here’s a sneak peak at his game. i know it’s 3 years ago and not much, but buike was pretty unknown outside of the bay:

    Florida was four years ago. As of now, he’s shooting 38.4% from the field, 26.3% from three and 70.8% from the line. His TS% is 47.2 and his eFG% is 41.4. All of these numbers are far below average. His shot has no balance, consistent form or range. He is “that bad”.

    It is not going to happen this year… if it took the heat a good 3 months to gel and start playing the basketball they were expected to play it would have to take the knicks even longer considering they gave up 4 of their starters..

  • FoCo

    As a Nuggets fan…people are delusional if they think Melo is going to make the Knicks a serious serious threat in the East. Dude may get you to the playoffs where he will hop into his 5-26 shooting ways all while leaving his defense on the bus.
    The only sad part about all this is the Nuggets doing Chauncey dirty once again.
