for a trade to NY? Alot of people have it against Lebron that he left Cleveland.
However, Amare left the team who drafted him and Phoenix did not get picks or players for him or even a trade exception. At least Lebron left Cleveland with a trade exception and 2 first round picks. Melo basically gave up on Denver and decided to go to NYK and asked for a trade to get the most money possible as opposed to waiting for a new CBA to be established.
Chris Paul last summer talked about him and Melo teaming up with Amare in NYK but no one insulted them the same way as Lebron did. Most of Lebron critics even went as far as to say Lebron, Bosh, and Wade all conspired from 08 to play with each other with no proof.
Whereas it could be more be proven that Amare and Melo did plan on playing in NYK from last summer when Amare joined with the Knicks and when Melo refused an extension to play in sign and trade to go to Jersey.
