Adande was pumping up the Nets players while Legler was wondering what Melo was thinking in not forcing his way to the Knicks. As positive as I have been, the fact is that Melo couldve shut these talks down a long time ago by explicitly telling the Denver brass he wouldn't sign an extension with the Nets and he hasnt. We'll see what happens.

from reading the wiretap, chris sheridan states carmelo told the nuggets he would only sign the extension if they trade him to the knicks and only the knicks.

No he hasn't. He never back pedaled, and in fact, he doubled down on it today.

Stephen A. Smith on Melo's preferred team:
Stephen A Smith
stephenasmith Stephen A Smith
@Lifendz Melo wants to come to NY, but NY can't get a deal done b/c they don't have want Denver wants most: Draft picks. NJ's front runner

On why Melo would go to NJ:
Stephen A Smith
stephenasmith Stephen A Smith
@Lifendz He doesn't want to. May have no choice.

@Lifendz If only one team had the means and the paper, do you call that a choice? Stop acting like you don't comprehend.

1) Whichever team owns Rip waives him on or before that date, and thus pays him $9 million to go away, or

2) Whichever team owns Rip does not waive him on or before that date, and thus pays him $12.5 million to stay.

That's it.

Oh snap.

The Nuggets are a train wreck and the fans--and it's DEFINITELY not sold out--are going to turn on this team VERY soon. If I was Melo, I would certainly threaten to walk to NYC as there is no way the Nuggets can deal with this all year. Not only do you lose him for nothing, but your team completely disintegrates throughout the year.

What if more than one team actually does have "the means?"
