- Next summer doesn't look as Melo Nets Blog | ESPN New York Even if the Denver Nuggets are able to re-sign Carmelo Anthony to a contract extension, the Nets will be in strong contention next summer to make a pitch for the 2011 free agent. That's because the Nets will have roughly $20 million in cap space (New York Post). In the meantime, the Nets already have a guarantee from one new member who will join them at the Prudential Center next summer -- the New York Liberty. The WNBA franchise will play all of its home games across the river while its current arena, Madison Square Garden, undergoes a multimillion-dollar renovation (The Star-Ledger). Jared ...
- Walsh nixed trade for Fernandez Knicks Blog | ESPN New York An international combo of Rudy Fernandez and Danilo Gallinari would have been intriguing to watch in Mike D'Antoni's run-and-gun system, but Knicks president Donnie Walsh boxed out that notion.

- Melo off the market? Nets Blog | ESPN New York Beyond Carmelo Anthony's mansion being up for sale (ESPN.com), there's really no other indication the Nuggets All-Star will be traded. In fact, Anthony himself said at his summer basketball camp, "I've been hearing that for five years. I'm a Denver Nugget. I'm here, I'm with the Nuggets. I don't become a free agent until next year, if I decide not to take that extension." Even ESPN's Marc Stein is now reporting that Anthony "isn't even on the market." We'll see how Anthony's mood changes as it gets closer to the start of training camp at the end of the month. And with that window still open, N...
