Has Melo Found His NY Home?

[Pugz]

In Sunday's loss to the New York Knicks, Miami Heat center Zydrunas Ilgauskas(notes) played zero minutes. He didn't take a shot, pull in a rebound, or even take the warm-ups off. For his troubles, Big Z (who is making the NBA's minimum salary this season) earned himself a cool $16,490. And he may have found a nice way to augment that.

Because during halftime of that game Ilgauskas introduced new Knick forward Carmelo Anthony(notes) to the news that Big Z rents out a spacious New York City townhouse (that he purchased in 2006 for $6.95 million) for the totally do-able price of $37,500 a month. And Carmelo, after being uprooted from Denver after playing in that city for 7 1/2 years, is considering turning Big Z into the Big Landlord.

Ilgauskas' in-game pitch? "It's awesome, with five bedrooms."

I thought the article said that was a townhouse? That thing looks bigger than my house.

It's New York, buddy.

wow that place has no flow to it. Each room is like a completely different style and culture, lol.

But my real question is why the fuck does Big Z need 5 bedrooms?

Melo should just save the trouble and build a mansion out in the Hamptons. Its worth the drive...

It's not the best looking place. IDK if Melo should really go with this.
