"Just filed to ESPN.com: Nuggets in "serious" discussions on four-way trade w/New Jersey, Utah and Charlotte that would make Melo a Net"

but Anthony has already signed off on the deal, according to an NBA source, and it could happen as early as Saturday. Anthony's approval was pivotal in the deal because the Nets wouldn't have agreed to it for a one-year rental.

Proposed deal, according to sources, would bring Derrick Favors, Andrei Kirilenko and multiple first-rounders to DEN for Melo. Link on way
Other contracts would surely be added to make such a deal work but current proposal also would send Devin Harris to CHA and Diaw to UTAH
Talking about a four team deal ...... Nets make this trade knowing that Carmelo is not going to sign with them next year, then they are some damn fools.
Nuggets would get back rookie Favors and AK47
Utah is going to give up AK-47 for Boris Diaw?
What?
And The West gets even weaker
AK makes 17 mil, Diaw makes 9 mil. Diaw would fit in our offense nicely. A passing big man that sets excellent picks and can shoot from the outside. I don't mind this deal at all.
Oh god, everyone's reminding me Jordan Farmar plays for the Nets. Oh god. about 12 minutes ago
From what I read Nets wouldn't make this deal unless Melo is coming with a extension, so I'm thinking not extension Melo won't be coming to the Nets.
Nets won't touch this deal unless Melo signs an extension. They're not that dumb.
If they lose Harris, i think many people will be surprised by Farmar. He didn't fit the Lakers triangle, but i do think he will fit well in NJ. He is a good player IMO
Have you ever watched Doris play?
Yeah, I can't imagine giving up both Harris and Favors for a one season rental.
Idk why Melo would want this. He'd just move from having no help in Denver to having no help in Jersey.
Pussy owns him. Lala wants to be back in New York.
Murphy/Lopez/Williams > Nene/Martin/Smith IMO.
Plus, this owner will spend and add pieces going forward.
Jordan Farmar's master plan in effect.
You're forgetting about Billups, but for some reason I completely forgot Lopez who is instantly by far the best young sidekick Melo has ever had, so I agree.
Well we knew the Nets were going to be active. They want to turn things around quickly and they struck out in FA. Grabbing Melo would be about as good as they could have hoped for via FA anyways and they don't have to give up all that much as Harris is average and Favors is unknown. Even if Favors meets expectations he still won't be a better talent than Melo, so there are not a lot of risks there and in fact, by trading potential for proven, they have mitigated risks and improved their chances at winning.
I did not forget about Billups I was just looking at the front lines. Billups is decent, but the Nets are in a position to obtain a pg via trade or FA next season.
Farmar is going to be the Nets starting PG if this goes down. Scary thought.
And Murphy isn't a bad PF for the time being. I also forgot they have Anthony Morrow now who I've always been a huge fan of.
Coming from the guy with Kyle Lowry in his avatar.
Nets still have some glaring holes. They lack depth at the pf/c position. Petro & Humphries will not cut it. Plus, in order to trade, Murphy is their biggest trade chip as an expiring contract, but that would hurt their depth even more.
They have too many SF's and this makes the Outlaw signing look bad. Then they drafted Damion James.
They PG position is weak, but I don't think Farmar is a huge drop off from Harris although many will disagree.
The starters and depth (w the exception of pg, pf & c) look good though.
Him or T-Will could be
