    Default Carmelo Anthony explains why he pushed for trade to Knicks

    from article:

    One such rumor involving Anthony was that his wife LaLa was a big reason why he wanted to become a Knick so badly. Anthony denied that in an interview with Yahoo! Sports' Adrian Wojnarowski, explaining that one of his biggest reasons for wanting out was the direction the Nuggets were headed in.

    "People didn't really know the business side of the situation we were in," Anthony said. "Everybody's contract was up. They had plans of going younger. People from the outside looking in didn't really get it."

    Following the 2010-11 season, Kenyon Martin, J.R. Smith, Marcus Camby and possibly Chauncey Billups were going to be free agents that were likely to go elsewhere. With Denver planning to go younger, Anthony decided that he did not want to be a part of a rebuilding process. So he pushed for a trade to New York to avoid a rebuild and to also take advantage of the major marketing opportunities in the city.

    So, egos.
    Maybe that's one of the reasons why Pop and Buford have had such success going the international route. Less of that stuff to deal with. I have to say during my 7 years of living away and meeting people from all over the world, Americans are by far the most arrogant, and think the world revolves around them.

    I can see how egos get in the way.

    It looks like Memphis has a few players I like. They drafted Jarnell Stokes. They already have Courtney Lee and Tashaun Prince.
