I believe that guy is a fake. Yesterday he said the Knicks were meeting with Melo and on the verge of dealing for him

don't know if it's fake or what... cause he also has a twitter account here too: http://twitter.com/nuggetsnews

found from: http://www.denverpost.com/nuggets

The source says that the Suns "came in too low" with their offer and stressed that the Knicks are the new frontrunner to land Stoudemire's services. While no offer has been made, the two sides have begun negotiations.

funny, if this is true, then Jordan Hill did turn out to be Amare.

Jordan Hill, 2011 swap Top 1 protected, 2012 top 5 protected, Jared Effries or Crawford and Randolph

Crawford and Randolph = Lebron
Jordan Hill, 2011 swap Top 1 protected(*), 2012 top 5 protected, Jared Effries = Amare

(*) and I have a hunch that if we land Amare and Lebron, houston will probably opt to keep their pick in 2011.

First

Trying to confirm but source says Amare to NY is "almost" done and they are "working out numbers"...half of the pick and roll set?

Then

Another source says knicks are "frontrunners" for amare. Get some sleep people. Not happening tonight. No timetable set.

and

Amare Stoudemire now appears to be a long shot to return to Phoenix after he opted out of the last year of his contract and negotiations on a new deal with Suns owner Robert Sarver broke off late Tuesday night, a source said.

Stoudemire is now in the mix of free-agent power forwards being pursued by the Miami Heat, Chicago Bulls, New Jersey Nets and New York Knicks.

The Houston Rockets, Dallas Mavericks and Toronto Raptors also are looking at potential sign-and-trade scenarios that could land Stoudemire.

Heat president Pat Riley met with Stoudemire last night and pitched Stoudemire on joining LeBron James and Dwyane Wade with the Heat, a source said.

All three would have to sign similar five-year deals starting at roughly $15 million, less than they could make on sign-and-trade deals.

Riley presented his power-of-three presentation to Stoudemire, in which he outlined how every championship team is built on a three-man nucleus.

Riley, the source said, is trying to convince the players that the absence of a state tax in Florida would make up the salary difference.

The Knicks have set up a more in-depth meeting with Stoudemire in New York this weekend.

Old ******* trying to steal our thunder. Fuck you and Miami and the entire state of Florida. I hope we kick your ass again like we did in the 90's you old fool!

Knicks haven't yet made an offer to Amar'e, sources say. Sides will talk over weekend. LBJ and Wade still recruiting forwards for themselves.

Tommy Dee just needed to confirm his worthlessness to the public and he did so with this.
