Carmelo Anthony has revealed why he chose the Knicks over the Bulls

Over his years in the NBA, Carmelo Anthony certainly had his best seasons with the Knicks. In 2014, however, Carmelo could have left New York to score with the Chicago Bulls, but then he changed his mind. Instead of joining the Bulls, Carmelo Anthony decided to re-sign with the Knicks.

On the occasion of his retirement, Carmelo Anthony returned to talk about his decision in Forbes: “I was going to Chicago. Derrick Rose, Joakim Noah were there. And then I started getting whispers behind the scenes. And that was all that started to emerge in the middle of my decision-making process. I wasn’t going to let anything overshadow that.”
