1. Carmelo Anthony
Anthony is reportedly waiting to sign with either the Los Angeles Lakers or the New York Knicks until James makes a decision, holding out hope the two can unite in either Miami or New York.
If James returns to the Heat, ‘Melo could potentially join up — depending on Bosh’s decision — but only at a reduced rate, which in all likelihood is not what Anthony wants to do.
I believe Anthony returns to New York once a chance to team up with ‘Bron becomes an unrealistic possibility. He’s more comfortable with the Knicks and should have confidence Phil Jackson will surround him with a quality roster.
