Is Tim Hardaway Jr. lobbying for a Carmelo Anthony return?
Hardaway said he has yet to hear from his buddy since he officially rejoined the Knicks on Saturday, but he sounded as if he would like Anthony back in the fold, even if management is intent on looking to deal him.
“It’s an odd feeling,’’ Hardaway said Monday on whether he will reunite with Anthony. “Melo has to do what’s best for his family and for him. Yes, we definitely want him back, no question. Us having that veteran leader on the floor — a go-to guy, get you a bucket at any given moment — it’s great to have that.
