    game of chicken. they could say alright fine, knowing that if they get something together with the rockets 3 weeks from now he'll still waive it anyway because he wants out lol.

    you can make threats all you want but if you are threatening to do something unpleasant to yourself like that, they know its bogus

    If Ramona said that she's dumber than i thought, how can his value go up if he's expiring and still wants one or two teams?

    Highest value is meaningless concept when Melo has a no trade clause.

    that's bs. someone with a no trade clause will never have higher trade value. no matter how well he plays houston and cleveland will still have limited assets to give.

    who cares what his trade value is if he has a no trade clause...

    Melo's value is relative not absolute.

    He's going to 1 team, the Rockets.

    no matter how well he ups his "value" cleveland and houston still won't have crap for assets and he'll only waive his clause for them

    Seriously, how do you know that? All these insiders are saying the same thing then this happens. How do you expect people to just believe what you say?

    Melo will keep saying no to any deal. Knicks are so stupid. Just waiting own time with free agents.

    that may be true ...eventually, but i always felt that if the knicks were smart, they'd wait and trade him at the deadline. the only plausable argument against that was this idea of wanting to start fresh with a new young team, and no melodrama. But a GM with fresh eyes would come into this situation and see immediately that you will get more for Melo later than you will right now. Things could look very different in Feb. Melo's trade destinations could be different.

    Maybe the Knicks are finally getting smart.

    http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/...ut-carmelo-anthony-trade-talks-hold-want-back

    The New York Knicks are pausing trade talks centered on Carmelo Anthony and want to pursue a conversation with the eight-team NBA All-Star about possibly reincorporating him into the organization, league sources told ESPN.

    After talking with the Houston Rockets and Cleveland Cavaliers for nearly a month to help engineer deals for Anthony, the Knicks told both teams that they're stepping back from trade talks for a short time, league sources said. Anthony had become eager to waive his no trade clause to join either team.

    The departure of Phil Jackson as president -- and the impending arrival of Sacramento executive Scott Perry as general manager -- has pushed the franchise's top basketball executive Steve Mills to reconsider the Knicks' intentions on trading Anthony, league sources said.

    It is believed the timing of that communication with Houston and Cleveland coincided with the clandestine negotiations that were ongoing with Sacramento and Perry, the Kings VP of Basketball Operations.

    The Knicks want Anthony to meet with the new front office and coach Jeff Hornacek in the near future, but it's unlikely that Anthony will respond with eagerness about a plan to reincorporate himself into a franchise that has been pushing him -- publicly and privately -- to accept a trade out of New York, league sources said.

    Anthony has been fully focused on getting a deal done, especially with advanced talks that surrounded Houston. The Rockets were working on a four-team trade with the Knicks that had gained traction throughout the week, league sources said.

    The Rockets have been eager to partner Anthony with Chris Paul and James Harden.​
