Lol wow that is way too much for Carmelo Anthony. The Knicks are reportedly are also offering the max.

 

[slinslin]

They will be paying 63M$ to Carmelo, Kobe, Nash and Randle - lol.

 

[Ronin]

You know what I've changed my mind and I hope the Suns throw the bank at him. He's a great player and would help the Suns in their half court offense. Carmelo can score from anywhere and the suns need help in scoring.

If Carmelo Anthony and Kobe Bryant were playing ball at UCLA today, one thing's for sure, source tells Yahoo: Kevin Love wasn't with them.

I think that's a good sign for the Suns that Kevin Love isn't with them. I still want Camelo Anthony on the Suns.

So today we've had people track a plane, Dan Gilbert deny he was on said plane, and a pickup game that may or may not have happened. Fun.

A UCLA official confirms only that Kobe was there today, and that Carmelo worked out there last week. Nothing more.

First Take is reporting that Carmelo Anthony will likely make his intentions public today.

Stephen A Smith is saying that the Knicks are the front runners to land Carmelo Anthony, but he would not be shocked if Anthony goes to the Miami Heat. Especially if Chris Bosh returns to the Heat.

That is all

Why is it so hard for D Rose to take time out from his busy schedule to have dinner with Carmelo? At least share a bowl of honey nut cheerios or something.

D Rose is so lame sometimes I can't stand it.

That is scary because Smith was the one who said the big three would go to Miami 4 years ago a month before it happened. He seems to have some good connections. .

Rose wanted to make the pitch, but the Bulls were afraid be might hurt his elbow and need Tommy John and miss next season.

Carmelo is struggling with his decision. It appears to be down to Knicks, Lakers and, yes, the Bulls. http://nydn.us/1oeuhEm

Popular question raised by last five teams I've talked to: Is Melo holding out in hopes Bosh goes to Houston so he can join LeBron in Miami?

Updated Melo math: The Miami scenario is even more improbable than I described. http://cbsprt.co/VEzvlU

I'm not understanding this article....http://www.prosportsdaily.com/Headlines/ExternalArticle?articleId=312080

Melo may be hesitating to see if he can team with LeBron in Miami

New York Post "The Knicks expected Carmelo Anthony’s decision by Monday, but heard only crickets. A growing belief within the organization is Anthony is waiting to make sure there is no possible way of hooking up with LeBron James in Miami or Los Angeles. While Anthony monitors the South Beach drama, James is..."
