Fulfilling the prophecy that all top professional athletes belong on the "big stage" of New York, and smaller markets can go piss off, the New York Knicks have traded their entire team for Carmelo Anthony.
A prediction: the Knicks will be terrible for the foreseeable future. They've got exactly three players right now, and virtually no draft picks for the next few years. And Isiah Thomas is ascendent in the front office. In 2012, they won't even be the best team in New York City.
