And would have run into the same roadblock the Suns did with Amar'e. A wide open free agency with teams shedding assets for a year or so to put themselves in the position to bid for your ass and quite likely to overpay you. There was zero incentive for anyone to sign an extension.

Melo was up against his next contract being under the new CBA and Denver called New York's bluff.
