He gave them a list of possibilities and allowed them the freedom to pursue trades they thought would help the franchise. Denver has vastly overplayed its hand this entire time essentially trying to get New Jersey to bid against itself. No one was capable of giving them the tradeable assets ( Harris), draft picks, young players, expiring contracts New Jersey had but they held out trying to get them to dump Harrington. The Nuggets were the ones that were indecisive on a deal Detroit and New Jersey thought would be finalized a week or two ago. And as far as the onus being on Melo, how on earth do want him to meet with the Nets when the owner is out of the country and the Nuggets are constantly changing the parameters of a trade. Those are pretty big hurdles to a meeting with a potential team. You know, having a deal in place to send you to a team, and then having the owner there to discuss any issues and his vision for the franchise.
