'Melo Drama






After a meeting was scheduled between Carmelo Anthony and New Jersey Nets Owner Mikhail Prokhorov on Monday, Prokhorov later cancelled the meeting and told his office to stop the pursuit of the trade with the Denver Nuggets for Carmelo Anthony.  The Nets organization only wanted to sign Carmelo if he would have signed a contract extension which seemed to be a no coming from Melo.  After feeling that Melo wouldn't sign the contract extension, the owner stopped the pursuit of Carmelo Anthony and Prokhorov stated that the deal was becoming too expensive.  Anthony stated that he still feels that he will still be traded by the trade deadline February 25th, but until then he's focused on playing basketball for the Denver Nuggets.  Melo is beginning to get irritated by all of the media attention and speculations with all the trade talks and has stated he will no longer answer any questions pertaining to anything other then the games at hand.
