Performing his due diligence, Anthony is paying attention to everything. Just as he has become more and more educated about what the Bulls, Lakers, Rockets, Clippers and others might have to offer as a future destination, he's also paying attention to what the Knicks have to offer.

Melo knows the Knicks had a chance at LaMarcus Aldridge and blew it. He knows they snubbed a trade that would've brought Rajon Rondo to New York or Kyle Lowry in a separate deal. All season, he sat around, played hard and averaged 27 points per game, while the Knicks stood idly by and did nothing -- primarily because Dolan wouldn't allow them to, telling the team in multiple meetings that the players weren't going anywhere.

And who can say matters have gotten better since he has hired Phil Jackson?

Jackson's first move was to bring Lamar Odom on board (we'll be kind and avoid elaboration on this one, folks!)

Knowing they have no draft picks till forever, and they have no talented assets aside for Anthony, and Danny Ainge is usually one to lowball trade offers for his best players, especially Rondo, I can't fathom that being actually true.
