Carmelo Anthony could have become a member of the Knicks on Monday night.
New York president Donnie Walsh turned down an offer from Denver that one team official classified as "steep."
According to a team source, "there is a deal to be made" but the most recent machination wasn't to Walsh's liking.
The Nuggets offered Anthony and Chauncey Billups to the Knicks for Danilo Gallinari, Raymond Felton, Eddy Curry and at least one first-round pick.
The New York Daily News writes that the Nuggets are focusing on the Knicks and Bulls, with the Mavericks and Rockets as wild cards.
