Everyone gets what they want

Knicks get Carmelo Anthony. Carmelo Anthony gets the Knicks. Patterson fills in the hole at PF for them.

Starting Lineup: Felton / Fields / Anthony / Patterson / Stodamire

Nuggets get younger and get solid pieces to rebuild with. 2 PG's, 2 SF & 2 PF plus expiring contracts. They also get some cap relief by parting with Billups that will speed up the rebuilding process. The expiring deals in the 1st year alone bring them under the cap. Not sure if the Nuggets would want Patterson or Randolph. I went with Randolph because he's a little taller. Battier, Williams & Budinger should fill some of the hole left by Carmelo. Brooks and Lowery will help with the scoring.

Starting Lineup: Brooks / Afflalo / Battier / Martin / Curry

Rockets get the center they need in Nene and some clutch shooting from Billups. Wilson Chandler fills in the hole left by Battier & Budinger. Lowery had to go to make the money work.

Starting Lineup: Billups / Martin / Chandler / Scola / Hilario

With the Nets deal falling through, this may be a good way to get everyone what they want.
