08:20 AM ET 01.26 | Carmelo Anthony told The Denver Post Tuesday there were still four teams with which he'd consider signing an extension -- Denver, Chicago, New York and New Jersey. One of Anthony's agents, William Wesley, is still working the Bulls, sources said, and New York president Donnie Walsh wisely continues to show restraint in talks with Denver. And as one NBA executive close to the Denver and New Jersey front offices insisted on Tuesday: "I've seen better acting in soap operas than [Mikhail] Prokhorov's performance. The Nets will be back in this thing, but they'll be back in on their terms -- not Denver's."

Who cares... This story is old...

Aint **** change. He's had Denver's extension sitting on his desk for how long? As for Prokhov he'd be the biggest snake alive if Nets somehow get back to negotiating with Nuggets for Melo...

In the end he'll be a Bull. Denver wont lose him for nothing and the Bulls can give them the best package of young talent to go with multiple picks in both rounds.

becareful what you wish for, Melo and Rose would complement each other like mayo and peanutbutter.

Its def a risk but in my opinion its a risk worth taking. Who knows how this will play out anyway.

What about someone like Iguodala? (Spelling?) Not feeling those options but I do agree they need a shooter.with everyone healthy and a New SG they're the best team in the east
