TORONTO: LeBron James on Saturday dismissed as false a New York Daily News report that the Boston Celtics and Cavaliers discussed a trade centered around Kevin Love that might also bring the Knicks’ Carmelo Anthony to Cleveland.
The Daily News reported there were preliminary discussions with the Knicks about expanding the deal to include Anthony, who has a no-trade clause. The Daily News said the Knicks would receive draft picks and players, and that Timofey Mozgov was believed to be one who would be included. Mozgov played for the Knicks in 2010-11 before being traded to the Denver Nuggets in a deal that moved Anthony to New York.
