Mavs Willing To Rent Melo?

[Pugz]

The Mavericks would be interested in making a trade for Carmelo Anthony without the assurance of an extension.

Mark Cuban didn't refer to Anthony by name, however.

"Yeah, in a heartbeat. Because then it's up to me to try to convince them to stay," Cuban said. "If everybody wants to give off a great player, we're always going to try to be opportunistic. But those calls typically aren't made. Those happen once every five years or so."

Anthony has been linked to the Knicks, Nets and Bulls, but the Mavericks and Rockets would be interested in trading for Anthony without an extension.

"I can't talk about other teams' players, but I'm always trying to be opportunistic," Cuban said. "If someone wanted to offer me a perennial All-Star for a second-round pick, I'm going to say yes."

omg really pugz? I swear this exact article has been posted before. Back in the heat of the Melo talks.

Denver just needs to either A: trade Anthony or B: don't, they need to stop all this nonsense.

That'd be stupid. He wouldn't resign with any team not on the East Coast.

I recall mentioning this as a possibility about a month ago during the Melo thread we have going, but I didnt post an article, at least I don't remember posting an article.

This has been speculated for months. It won't happen though. Nor do I really want it to happen.

Well, Mark Cuban's all about winning -- I wouldn't put anything past him.
