Carmelo: ‘Chips Will Be On The Table’ In Exit Interview With Jackson

The Knicks star told reporters Monday that “the chips will be on the table” in his season-ending interview with the team president.

The Melo era in New York could be drawing to a close. Jackson tried to trade the 10-time All-Star guard this season, but couldn’t find a deal that worked for all parties, with Anthony’s no-trade clause proving to a road block.

The Knicks are expected to revisit trade talks this summer. Jackson seems eager to move forward with a new plan, one that leans heavily on younger players and the triangle offense. The 32-year-old Anthony, who has said he wants to win a championship before he retires, doesn’t seem to match the Knicks’ time frame any longer.
