NBA Rumors: Knicks head coach Mike Woodson likes hearing La La Anthony say Carmelo is staying
By Josh Hill
The New York Knicks are staring to really turn their season around and are making up for the embarrassing way their year began. But while the winning is finally happening, the drama surrounding the Carmelo Anthony situation persists and is a cloud hanging over everything.
Fans want to know if Melo is staying in New York next season or if he’s going to bolt, and we’re starting to hear more and more people speak out on the matter. Carmelo Anthony’s wife La La aid she thinks her husband is staying and that’s something Knicks coach Mike Woodson likes hearing.
"“I love it,” Woodson said Wednesday on his regular ESPN New York radio spot about La La’s Anthony’s declaration this week that she believes her husband is “definitely” staying a Knick. “I’m saying the same thing. I think he’s going to stay. I want him to stay. I think New York fans, they need him here."
Woodson has said before that the believes Carmelo Anthony will re-sign with the Knicks in the offseason, but that has hardly helped the rumors from spreading. The latest rumor has Melo leaning towards the Chicago Bulls, but Melo himself took the time to shoot that down earlier this week.
