Then-New Orleans Hornets point guard Chris Paul was in participation, and told the crowd of a possible Big Three in New York featuring him, Anthony (who d just been traded to the Knicks) and Amar e Stoudemire, who d signed with the Knicks in 2010. The Knicks have actually been connected to Paul for months, and according to Marc Berman of the New York Post, Anthony would likely want to follow Paul back to New York if such a trade is finished. The Knicks are now run by Leon Rose, former representative to both Anthony and Paul. Paul and Anthony finally fulfilling the decade-old wedding event toast would be an excellent story, but it would not always make sense for the Knicks as currently built.
Paul has 2 years left on a max agreement, and every possession he and Anthony use would not be readily available for the development of gamers like RJ Barrett and their No. 8 total choice in November. Paul and Anthony finally satisfying the decade-old wedding event toast would be a terrific story, however it would not necessarily make sense for the Knicks as currently built.
Carmelo Anthonys wedding included one of the most famous toasts in NBA history. Then-New Orleans Hornets point guard Chris Paul was in participation, and informed the crowd of a possible Big Three in New York including him, Anthony (who had actually just been traded to the Knicks) and Amar e Stoudemire, who d signed with the Knicks in 2010. Chris Paul was traded to the Los Angeles Clippers and followed that up with stints with the Rockets and Thunder.
The Knicks have actually been connected to Paul for months, and according to Marc Berman of the New York Post, Anthony would likely wish to follow Paul back to New York if such a trade is completed. The Knicks are now run by Leon Rose, previous agent to both Anthony and Paul. Reports have connected Anthony back to New York separately from Paul, but after their season ended, Anthony exposed that he would like to go back to the Portland Trail Blazers..
I got comfortable with the company, I got comfortable with the guys on the group, they got comfortable with me, and at this point in my career I do believe that thats the finest fit for me, the finest situation, especially having this experience now and kind of just getting my feet wet and simply coming in and being who I am and remaining real to myself. I actually hope that it can be Portland at the end of the day where we provide ourselves a possibility to keep this group together, get guys healthy, and get another run at it.”.
They spent a brief duration together with the Rockets, though Anthonys battles led to him being benched and then traded. The restoring Knicks wouldnt be as discerning about Anthonys play. Fixing fences with Anthony, who left on bad terms, would be a start.
