Vague "According to a person who spoke with Wedding Attendee Amar'e Stoudemire"

Yup, even his bff Chris Paul denied the ride....even went as far as even denying interest.
...CP3 was traded to the Clippers, he didn't sign with them. Had he been a free agent and all things were even, I think he definitely would've been a Knick.
When was Melo a free agent? If Chris Paul wanted to be with melo he could have attempted to take the same route. He never attempted, but yet denied it all.
He never pushed the issue because he knew the Hornets(/Pelicans) couldn't indulge him. The Knicks surrendered every asset it had in the Melo deal save for Landry Fields, who quickly fizzled out soon thereafter. CP3's interest in NY was pretty evident though; he articulated as much at Melo's wedding.
Articulated? He said a toast, most folks are drunk when they say such things. Paul had zero interest in joining melo. We didnt even have the assets to get Melo, he wanted to be here and Denver had to take what they could.
Since when does a player look at a teams assets before demanding a trade?
All of them do.
As for CP3, a drunk speaks a sober heart.
da fuq?
And posters complain about my stanzas and bars
This read like a hieroglyphic on cuneiform clay tablets
I guess what he's saying, if you're liquored up
That's when the true matters of the heart bubble forth
"A drunk (mind) speaks a sober heart" is a pretty well known quote. Its not my fault that neither of you have encountered it.
It is well known, but only drunks believe in it.
Hang out with a drunk, unless you're a drunk yourself you wont be pleased with what comes from their "sober heart".

Themselves?

Did you post the source to his own words
If you haven't you have my blessing to do so
Dollars to Donuts your source will read
Similar or extremely vague compared to what I posted
Chris Paul seemed to acknowledge and affirm those comments in subsequent interviews...
Paul, as reported in The Post, gave a toast during Anthony's Manhattan wedding reception to one day forming a "our own big three" in New York with Stoudemire and Anthony. Yesterday, Paul was asked by The Post if he regrets the toast.
"I don't regret anything during the summer," he said. "Everything that happens makes you stronger. Now I'm just happy to be on a great team that's playing really well."

Yeah....because it makes all the sense in the world to discuss that at Carmelo's wedding; the idea of teaming up with "talent" that doesn't involve Carmelo Anthony himself...

Yahoo! Sports reports that Paul and Howard, both members of the 2008 Olympics gold medal-winning USA Basketball team, had discussed teaming up in the NBA since 2009. According to the report, they had eyed Mark Cuban's Dallas Mavericks as a possible destination for joining forces after Howard failed to recruit Paul to the Magic and Paul failed to recruit Howard to the Hornets.
"I tried to get him to come to New Orleans," Paul told Yahoo! Sports. "It was back and forth, here and there."
...
Sources close to both players said Howard and Paul settled on the Dallas Mavericks as an ideal destination, knowing owner Mark Cuban had the means to clear salary-cap space for them. The Mavericks explored trades for both players, but didn't have attractive enough assets to make a deal. And while Howard and Paul could have become unrestricted free agents in the summer of 2012 by opting out of their contracts, neither exhibited the patience to make such a plan feasible.
Paul was all in for joining the Mavericks as a free agent in 2012, but he wanted a commitment Howard also had interest, sources said. Howard, however, remained indecisive about his future in Orlando and wasn't ready to commit to Paul. Frustrated, Paul eventually grew tired of waiting on Howard, gave up on the Dallas plan and asked the Hornets for a trade.
...
"We always wanted to play together," Howard said of Paul. "It didn't happen that way."
Sorry their colluded plans involved
Teaming up with this special player
I'll defer to CP3s own words and not some reporter who never confirmed any of his comments with Paul.
How did you come to hear about "the toast"? Were you there?
but if words are what ya want, here ya go.....
Explain to me how this proves anything. Those are the same generic answers that any and every player uses when plotting their exit.
Those are his words. No, every player does not say "i will not be in new york any time soon."
Carmelo said the same shit as he was actively lobbying to be traded to New York. Like I said before, those answers are the politically correct thing to say. But as is the case with political correctness, what you say does not always convey your intent.

You might be right because I'm not drunk or drink for that matter and I think that this conversation has ventured into "fucking retarded" territory. Are you simply responding just to respond?

Dude you can keep rephrasing the same shit over and over again but it won't change the fact that Chris Paul intimated that he wanted to form a big 3 with Melo and Amare, both of whom became Knicks. And when confronted with that fact, he indirectly confirmed it to the media. I'm not sure what angle you're trying to work here but you're not going to convince me that I should discard a man's own words for that of some dude who is peddling 3rd-hand info.

IMO Dolan got impatient. I think the move was to wait on CP3 and save the cap space for him. They went with the Billups Amnesty instead of STAT and grabbing Tyson. Just waiting and being patient and ready to pounce when the time was right but Dolan couldn't do that.
In the end now we have to see what Phil can do with his shot at it. We're in a good position now. Just play this out and see what happens at the Trade deadline and this off season. In the meantime we get to evaluate the players we have and establish a new culture here.

Some may say so with the
Zach and Jamal trades
But really we bought time until 2010
Signed Amar'e[which we shouldn't have]
Once inked, Dolan thought he could
Bring many other stars here and once he
Caught a whiff of the smelly egg gas from Denver
He couldn't resist, and that's all she wrote
nixluva@ 10/5/2014 9:04 PM
All we can do is hope Dolan stays away and let's Phil do his job. I loved the deal to get rid of Tyson n Felton and draft Early and Thanasis. Plus we got Larkin and Acy. Phil's small moves and pick ups are pretty interesting. It just seems like a clear vision of what kind of players he wants to fit into this system.
Then we still have the Deadline, draft and off season to make further improvements. We just gotta wait and see how it all develops.

50/50
To not have signed anyone in 2010
Longterm maybe not so bad
Short Term, it would have been
One of the worse PR nightmares in some time
It would have proven everything prior was
All for naught and a hammer on New York
Being an attractive destination
Which is still debatable by and large

The Knicks were in a perfect position for a good GM to start over but not with Dolan being such a fool. I have some hope for the future with Phil in control and Dolan being hands off.

I always thought that when Stern forced Dolan to replace isiah, Dolan chose Walsh because he knew Walsh had a fondness for Isiah.
