Hell of an overpay.

Yup.
Especially considering the fact they could've just signed him in the offseason and kept all their pieces. He was never going to sign an extension with NJ or Denver, no matter what he said.

Renaldo Balkman Return Night will clearly overshadow Melo's MSG debut.


Lol TP.  When I went to the World Basketball Festival in MSG and he was playing in it everyone loved him out there lol.

I'm willing to bet that it will be nearly another 24 hours before the trade is officially official.

Denver will probably try to bring in another team to reroute some of the former Knicks, in exchange for players they really want.

Jersey? Dallas? Atlanta (boy, could they use Felton)?

Could end up being a four- or five-team deal.

You're right.

Dallas, Denver and New Jersey have discussed three-way that would land Harris with Mavs and Felton and Mozgov with Nets, source says.

Rumor has it that the Nuggets are now entertaining deals for Felton and/or Nene.  Link.

I think Danny should talk to denver about aquiring one of Denver's wings since they got Chandler and Gallinari I would love Afflalo in green

Broussard just said that Corey Brewer is also going to the Knicks.

Devin Harris back to the Mavs!?  Who would they give up and would he be put right away into the starting lineup over Kidd?

Is he saying this on ESPNews?

[dang]nn. Denver really cashed in big. But, don't underestimate the influence of Billups. That man is still one of the best point guards in the NBA and a hell of a leader.

Become Legendary.

Minnesota is going to come out of this looking stupid.

Great Trade for the Nuggets. Denver got everything they wanted.

Now give us Wilson  ;D

Hot [dang] that would be awesome, although extremely unlikely.

Aaron Afflalo and Danilo Gallinari are their future SG & SF. Giving that Wilson Chandler will be a FA this summer, Denver has no intention re-signing him.

This is where Celtics come in & lowball the Nuggets. If Nuggets bite great, and if they don't raise the offer Denver will have no option but to trade him. Rather then losing him free.

Isn't Gallo going to Jersey for picks?

What are your best guesses on where Felton and Nene end up?

Of course they are, I'm curious to see where they're going to play Randolph. He's not playing over Love, they're not going to demote Beasley. Is Randolph supposed to be a center? That could get ugly.

I don't think they're smart enough to play him as a 6th man...

I thought that Brewer was originally going to the Nuggets?

I think Nene stays, unless Denver feels they have no shot at resigning him.

I wonder if Atlanta will make a play for Felton. Denver will go forward with Lawson at the point, right?
