The ‘Melo-drama’ is over and it has possibly resulted in the worst NBA trade ever.
Wilson Chandler, gone.
Danilo Gallinari, gone.
Raymond Felton, gone.
Timofey Mozgov, gone.
First-round pick in 2014 and $3 million cash, gone.
For who? Carmelo Anthony, Chauncey Billups, Shelden Williams, Anthony Carter and Renaldo Balkman…Who are these people?
While ticket prices for Knicks games are rising as we gripe or grin about the trade, I believe that the headache has only just begun. We’ve just traded all of our promising young talent, with the exception of Landry Fields, for yesterday’s superstars.
We’ll see how the Knicks compete for the rest of the season and then I’ll let you know how I feel about this trade. The fact of the matter is, Anthony would have come to New York when his contract in Denver was up because he wants to be closer to his hometown and his wifey, Lala. So was this over the top trade really necessary?
I think not!
