        Still not as crazy as the LeBron free agency frenzy. That right there reached levels the NBA has never seen before in it free agency period. I'm surprised a European team has offered a trade for Melo. LOL!

              I don't either. I could only see it working out if Melo signs with the Nets, which he won't. It's just stupid. NJ probably may not even make the Playoffs if this deal goes down. They have a TON of ground to make up.

                At first I thought these guys were joking... But I think they are serious.... This has been know for about a month now guys. Melo has said he would sign an extension if he was traded to the Knicks. or maybe it was more like he would prefer to be traded the Knicks. That was said a few days (or month) after the trade mill started spinning.

                  They get rid of a HORRIBLE contract for Hamilton (40 million left), and they get a real solid big man in Murphy with an expiring contract. I've heard they are getting picks too?

                  I wouldn't mind if the Pistons just took on Petro's deal. It won't be a deal breaker though. He's a big body, and 3.5 million isn't too much because they aren't many guys his size.

                  Is there any word on other Pistons in the deal? They have Villanueva, Maxiell, Wallace, Monroe, Wilcox, and Jonas Jerebko coming back from injury.

                  If you add in Murphy and Petro, that is 8 players for 2 positions.

                  It's a better deal for the Pistons now that the Nets are no longer asking for the Pistons to include a first-round pick, which I thought was a joke. At worst, Johan Petro could replace Chris Wilcox next season as I doubt Wilcox will be brought back after this season plays out.

                    I think this is a stalemate.

                    No team will trade for Melo if they can't get a confirmation to a extend and trade.
                    Melo wants to go the Knicks.
                    Denver either doesn't like the parts of the Knicks offers or they don't want to give into the Melo demands.
                    Also,... Melo "underneath it all" wants to sign a contract this year under the current CBA agreement.
                    But he will only sign if traded to the Knicks or He wants to be traded to the Knicks.

                    IMO Melo is not going to the Nets. He is going to make Denver sweat it out. Eventually Denver might give into his trade demands to the Knicks.

                      It's been a stalemate since the day Melo turned down Denver's extension. Really nothing has changed since then, just different rumors have come out.

                        All along or at least by now, NY never wanted to trade for Melo. They know he's going to sign with them outright anyway, so why trade away assets.

                        Melo will stay with Denver for the remainder of the season, then will sign with NY in the summer.

                        NY themselves didn't even know they were going to be this "good". So they definitely don't want to tinker too much.

                          The Nuggets FO are dumb. I really do hope they get nothing for Melo now. Greed or just sheer incompetence is going to cost them.

                          The longer they wait the more it makes sense for Melo to just play out the contract and go where ever he wants via free agency next year.

                            How are they dumb if Melo wont sign w/ the team he's traded to?

                              Huh?

                              How does this in anyway show Denver's greed or incompetence?

                              They offered Melo an extension as soon as they could, and Melo didn't sign it.

                              What else did you want them to do?

                              They've surrounded this guy with a ton of talent and offered him a boatload of money.

                                From reports earlier Melo was open to signing with more teams. Plus some teams may have signed him for a year if they didnt have to give up too much. Now half way through the year no team will trade for Melo unless he is willing to sign. Denver FO let this drag out and now they are hoping Melo signs with the Nets or bust.
