I think if he was traded at beginning of season to the Nets, the Nuggets could have gotten a very good package with Favors, Terrence Williams, and 2 first round picks from the Nets. I also think the Nets would have been more willing to do a trade even if Melo originally did not sign an extension because very few people felt Knicks with Amare were that much better than the Nets who had Harris and Lopez.
With the way Nets and Knicks are playing the only trade options for the Nuggets are New York or teams who mind if he does not sign an extension like Dallas or Houston.
