I'd offer Denver what Michael Corelone offered the Senator from Nevada. But Dolan is Fredo.

No chance.

But it could indicate that Melo is still not interested and he's protecting himself and his team from further embarrassment.

In other words, if the Nets are out, it's because of Melo but not because of any stand that Prohkorov is going to stick to. He'll definitely do a deal if Melo will take the deal.

but why make a statement ? maybe he heard from melo's people that he's still not interested. so he does this to save face again.

I think just to play hard to get and also to protect his team in case Melo continues to be disinterested. He's probably protecting his own ego and credibility too.

He's waiting for Melo to say "I need you!" He's also waiting for Denver to say the same. If that happens, then he'll do a deal.

It's a clear tactic.

A few hours ago he had that article stating Nets were in advanced talks with Denver on a new deal. Then this article below...Now I cant find the article on Yahoo....After the guy claimed Walsh in a wheelchair was the reason we lost out on LeBron I've lost all respect for the man as both a credible writer and as an individual

http://sports.espn.go.com/new-york/nba/ ... id=6133683

he just put up the article 14 mintues ago.

The tone of his article has the feeling of

"I was told to release this news in order to drive up the Knicks asking price, I hate Donnie Walsh that handicapped pr*ck"

The Denver Nuggets and New Jersey Nets are once again in advanced talks on the framework of a blockbuster trade for Carmelo Anthony. And once again, Anthony must be sold on agreeing to a three-year, $65 million contract extension to push these long, winding negotiations to completion.

The Nets and Nuggets are discussing a deal that would send Anthony, Chauncey Billups(notes), Melvin Ely(notes), Renaldo Balkman(notes) and Shelden Williams(notes) to the Nets for Derrick Favors(notes), Devin Harris(notes), Troy Murphy(notes), Ben Uzoh(notes) and four first-round draft picks, a league source with knowledge of the talks told Yahoo! Sports on Thursday night.

Now, the pressure could be back on the New York Knicks to sweeten their offer and get Anthony before the Feb. 24 trade deadline. Knicks president Donnie Walsh has seemed willing to let Anthony go into free agency, when New York can try to sign him in the summer. The Knicks and Nuggets have negotiated steadily in recent weeks, but Denver has been frustrated with New York’s reluctance to part with key young players in a deal.

For the Nets, the next step would be for owner Mikhail Prokhorov to meet Anthony in Los Angeles during All-Star weekend and sell the Nuggets star on a future with the Nets. It’s still unclear whether such a meeting would happen. Prokhorov has continued to publicly say he’s no longer interested in trying to acquire Anthony.

“Mikhail has not changed his mind,” Prokhorov’s assistant, Ellen Pinchuk, told the Associated Press Thursday.

Sources said Anthony’s agents didn’t even know until Tuesday or Wednesday that the Nuggets and Nets had restarted talks. The teams resumed negotiations over a week ago when Denver called back the Nets in the aftermath of Prokhorov’s abrupt ending of talks on Jan. 19.

This is still a steep price for the Nets to pay for Anthony, and far more than the Knicks seem willing to give up. Among the draft picks the Nets are expected to give the Nuggets are their own 2011 first-round selection, the 2011 first-round pick they acquired from the Los Angeles Lakers, a future conditional first-rounder from the Golden State Warriors and another future first-rounder.

What do you think..

1. Denvers FO is a joke and an embarrasment.
2. Those " magical picks" are fools gold (which explains why Denvers FO loves it so much....see what i did there?)
3. That package is NOT far better than what they asked from the Knicks...unless your an idiot (which again explains why Denvers FO apparently loves it so much).
4. Wojina must have been pleasuring Mannix with the other hand while typing his nonsense.
5. If i were a Nugget fan i would be embarrased by my GM.

That uriji clown was hired for one reason and one reason only. Resolve the situation and get more than nothing. Im sure walsh knows that. MAYBE,...there is a idea here. To make the knicks look bad. To make carmelo stay. "Look at what the nets offer and look at what your beloved knicks offer"

In my honest opinion, no homer, no homo, no this, no that. This cat is been playing games. And its going to blast back. Amateur junk. I really doubt Walsh is fooled. I hope melo is not either.

I agree with you 100%.

I also think Melo is playing games, and that in the end is what will cost us more than we want.

Unless Melo made it clear he wouldn't sign with NJ, to think NJ is packing up and will stick to their word would be stupid.. Unless they've been told he wouldn't sign there and therefore have no reason to bother, they will not not listen to offers. I don't care what Prok or his assistant say.. I'm sure they'll try and keep it as secretive as possible so they don't set themselves up to get embarrassed again though.

This is the Golden Age. You will all one day look back on these weeks of anxiety and frustration with such fondness that you will miss the endless posting and fretting over meaningless scuttlebutt. Stop and smell the roses and treasure this moment. It will never be as good as this.

Anthony also would have to know that coming to New Jersey probably would end his playoff hopes. The Nets have a 17-40 mark entering the break and are 8½ games out of a playoff berth with 25 left.
