[Camelo Thread Part 8] - NJ Gets Threats From Denver!

[GONYK]

Guys, this is going to fall through

[CrazyKnicks]

Good to hear. Apparently Philly also wasn't thrilled with Batum.

I don't watch a lot of Portland games, but from the games I watched, the guy doesn't look like anything special. Looking at his numbers and nothing is really impressive. So what's with all the hype with this guy?

I guess we'll find out tonight, I will focus on Batum the whole game to see what makes him so "special" lol

[K_ick_God]

I honestly think she may be or someone just as close is too. I just don't think Chris Sheridan would put his reputation on the line like that without having a "close to home" source.

But Berger had the same report on the same day and probably the same source and he has now flipped his reporting.

[K_ick_God]

More I think about it, the fact that lala is talking to pro-Knicks people who say turn down the trade is really pretty telling, perhaps. If she knew Melo was about to go to the Nets, she'd be avoiding these people like the plague, wouldn't she?

Absolutely. I'm sure Melo's agents would tell her to STFU until he signs with the Nets.

Guys. Carmelo has been traded to the Nets like 3 times in order to get the Knicks to cough **** up. Walsh ain't buying it. It's that simple. These wrinkles added into the trade are bull to make it seem like it fell apart because of something other than Melo saying **** no.

We can only assume they had the same source (Though likely).

I'm not reading much into this but I find it interesting that celebrity Knick fans are pleading for Carmelo to be a Knick and LaLa is replying to them.


Again not reading much into it. Just find it very interesting.

No, it's interesting for sure. And I still suspect that she's Sheridan's source.

It's odd to see Sheriden this peeved also. He sounded pissed with what's being reported elsewhere.

Exactly.

It sounds like Carmelo Anthony was prepared to be dealt to New Jersey until, as sources close to him put it, "Joe Dumars messed it all up."


LOL now it's the Pistons fault?

Reading the celebrity tweet tea leaves again, KnicksGod? I know it makes for terrible message board fodder, but the reality is nobody knows how this is going to turn out. Not Leon Rose. Not Donnie Walsh. Not Carmelo or Lala. Let alone Ed Lover, Joe Budden, or Pharmcat.

That quote was pulled out of context. Melo made that comment in regards to how Billups, Rip, and Melo could've been teammates on Detroit in 2003.

I don't even know what that means lol.

But don't be surprised if Melo reiterates his Knicks-only stance. That's still his preferred destination and he talks to Amare almost daily.

Well ... Melo controls his destiny 100%.

I think you're right based off his follow up tweet.

i'm pretty sure when he said dumars messed it all up he was talking about being drafted by detroit.

his next quote was this

so what you're telling me shaggy is that you know nothin, go find scooby and the rest of the gang and ride the mystery van out of town

[Knickplaya]

The interesting part of this is look :::::

Another league source said Knicks officials were perturbed to hear that Anthony was being told they were "dragging their heels" in their efforts to acquire Anthony. (Which could lend some sort of an explanation to the origins behind the latter part of this quote from Anthony after practice Monday in Denver): "Who wouldn't want to play in New York?" Anthony said. "I told you that last year. I think that's how all this stuff started, by me making that comment. New York is playing well right now. I don't think they're looking at me, they don't want me to come in here and mess what they have up. That's what I've read."

To add to this, if the Nuggets are getting in Melo's head about this, or about that B.S. about Amare not wanting him there, do they think this is going to change Melo's mind and get him excited about going to Newark?

[TheBluest]

Is this the same Chris Sheridan with sources who said the Knicks would go south soon? lol @ the I believe this reporter when it suits me to
