Another tidbit, the Denver mgmt is rather new and young, they want to prove themselves and obviously has to stand their ground and try to get the best for their team.
Last week: They showed their immaturity when they announced to the media something like "Hey Nets, stop leaking our trade proposals or else we'll trade Melo to the Knicks!" Which is comical because it is widely accepted amongst the NBA circle that the Knicks offer isn't even being considered by Denver. So this is essentially an empty threat.
What they're doing now is, Prokhorov is gonna be in the states this week to talk to Melo (if he hasn't already, he may have done it over the weekend). On my way over to work this morning (which was 2 hours ago, I work in HK), listening to the NBA Today podcast on ESPN, they're saying that (not reporting) from a team source that this deal is essentially done and should be ok'd Tues/Wed. So who knows. For a guy that follows the NBA daily, this shit is cannot be more annoying. ESPN just floods the NBA page with Melo stuff daily and I just don't care anymore, just end it already.
BTW Brook Lopez sucks, ruining my fantasy so badly that I can't even trade him.
