The Knicks are doing everything they can to appease Melo right now, so they might want to pay attention to these comments.
Shumpert who is struggling under the weight of trade rumors may be able to calm down now. According to Ian Begley of ESPN New York, Anthony believes “Shumpert is an important piece of the Knicks future.”

“I think he is; I believe so,” Anthony said.
In other words, he doesn’t want to see Shumpert traded.
“We have a lot of expectations for Iman, especially the way he played tonight,” Anthony said.
I bet he doesn’t want Shumpert traded.
If the Knicks trade Iman Shumpert, then who’s going to guard the Paul George, LeBron James, and Kobe Bryant’s of the world.
Not Carmelo.
See his logic now?
