Already, Iguodala wants to re-up in Mile High City

this team is going to be very good, they should be able to challenge OKC and the Lakers in the playoff

They Have Great 'Room Service' There, Bro.

Are you smoking this early? I know Canda's got some good stuff but man....LOL (j/K)

I doubt they will be better than LAC, SAS or MEM

good player, but overpaid.if he's willing to take a 8-10 mil per year deal for 3-4.....lock him upbut if he's expecting a similar contract with similar $$$- let him walk

The problem with teams like Denver and other mid-markets: they have NO choice but to overpay a less-than-elite-player otherwise they won't come there.

LAL, OKC, SAS, LAC, DAL, NOH, DEN, MEM - most probably in that order.

Carmelo played his a** off when he was in Denver an accomplished a lot for them.

Yeah Melo played his a** off here so much that Nuggets fans were more upset that Billups left rather than Melo himself. When his time here was over he was nothing more than a pain in a** and a lockeroom cancer.

" Carmelo Anthony, of all players, had some great things to say to Andre Iguodala about how he might fit in Denver." What kind of off hand comment is that? Carmelo played his a** off when he was in Denver an accomplished a lot for them. I love how people villify the guy for playing out his contract to the best of his ability but simply wanting to go elsewhere when his obligation was fulfilled. And Denver acts like Melo was so bad for them. Even after he left and they tried and continue to try to bad mouth him, he has never once said anything negative about the Nuggets. I have a question. If he was so bad for the Nuggets, why did they want to keep him so bad, and then feel so wounded when they couldn't make it happen? HYPOCRISY!

Reading waaay too much into it.
Anthony left Denver, so the implication is that it's odd for someone who left a team under less then great conditions should be giving advice on how to fit in there.

Wonder what advice Kobe could give about Denver?

A.I. is going to flourish is Denver run next to my man Ty Law. Hope he can get a long term deal done so that the distractions that can follow uncertainty can destroy a team if left unchecked. Hope to see Denver make some noise next season especially taking into account the success that had last season, in spite of the numerous injuries.

Melo is my guy. I will hate him as well if he leaves NY under similar circumstances.

I get suspicious when players angle for contracts instead of waiting for the contracts to come to them. In this case you have Bynum and Iggy both crying for long term deals when they can stay putt and make more money later... makes me think they both have injuries or want to coast with guaranteed cash..... if I'm Nuggets and Philly I'd wait... especially Nuggets. They already have Chandler and Gallo at 3. There's no need to overpay to retain Iggy.

Denver has always been my team. Seeing him leave was difficult, but he allowed us to get something in return. We went to the playoffs every year with him - and nearly closed the Lakers out. I appreciate him as a player, and still watch NY highlights to see him play. I don't get the hate.
