    NBA Trade rule #1: the team that trades many for 1 (and that is essentially this deal) loses. Knixies win. This trade, at least. Jersey does, as well. Now, how will the Rox fare as a by-product?

    Chandler, Gallanari, and Felton are hardly nobodies... Even Mozgov in an interesting prospect.

    It's more like the Nuggets got 4 good role players for 2 star players.

    Steve Kyler: Nuggets may send pieces to Nets and Houston in separate deal.. Nets like Danillo and Chandler... Nuggets could get additional picks. 3 minutes ago

    Give Bobcats late/ protected first round, NJ throws us 2 picks and a young prospect. New Jersey has a competitive starting 5, we get young talent capspace, Bobcats have cap space and a pick for a player they almost gave away. Just an extreme trade if Morey decides to go into rebuild.

    I just knew Melo would end up with the Knicks. No way would he be in Jersey and not make the playoffs this season. Now is on to the fun.

    Tell that to the Knicks after what happened with Marbury. And for whatever reason, some of them are concerned about doing that whole mess again.

    for a good reason though. BTW, the role players can be easily replaced for Knicks.

    Sadly, God is not a Rockets fan. If he were, this would happen.
