Carmelo Anthony To Knicks Trade Reactions From Nuggets, New York Fans

Carmelo Anthony has been traded to the New York Knicks according to multiple reports — how are Denver Nuggets fans holding up?

Denver Stiffs, SB Nation’s Nuggets community, threw up an open thread for the night once the trade was reported, complete with a photo of an embracing Anthony and Chauncey Billups, who will remain teammates in New York if the deal goes through.

Based on their reactions, they appeared more resigned to losing Melo than they did to losing Billups. Several hope the veteran guard can return to retire in Denver. There’s some clear anger directed at Anthony and the front office, along with a sentiment that New York gave up too much in the deal. Some Knicks fans even stop by to agree with that last part.

Over at Posting & Toasting, our Knicks community, many fans are even more upset than Denver’s were. How could this trade possibly make everybody sad at once?

Oh, and this trade would also affect the Minnesota Timberwolves. Canis Hoopus is just now expressing itself on the matter, but so far appears pleased.
