The New York Post reported Wednesday that Carmelo Anthony would prefer to be traded in advance of the deadline.

This comes on the heels of a report from CAA-aligned Chris Broussard that Mike D'Antoni has "lost the team," and we're expecting a full-on media blitz by Anthony's people to frame the Knicks' struggles as anything but his fault. As for the issue of taking on Anthony, there aren't a lot of teams that will be able to handle such a anic move before Thursday's deadline
