NBA Free Agency

On most nights, Carmelo Anthony doesn’t sound like a man who’s going to leave the New York Knicks. After watching the franchise nab Phil Jackson, it seems even less likely.

Meet Mark Cuban, owner of the Dallas Mavericks and resident broken record. While Cuban is prone to repeating himself, it’s not all his doing.

New York Knicks fans will want to listen up. And those who value Carmelo Anthony may want to cry. Anthony, the Knicks’ free-agent-to-be, still takes advice from his former head coach at Syracuse, Jim Boeheim.
