Notebook: Nets Prepare for Melo-Drama, Avery Sounds Off, Warriors Eye Kerr

Filed under: , , ,

Derrick FavorsSACRAMENTO, Calif. -- We're not talking fake nose and mustache incognito here, but Billy King just might keep his head down and walk in the shadows on Saturday night at the Pepsi Center.

The first-year New Jersey general manager is on the road with his young and struggling team, and Saturday night's game in Denver will be the first time his Nets face the Nuggets since the Melo-Drama that coincided with the start of training camp in early October. The reported four-team deal that would have sent Carmelo Anthony to Newark might be dead in its original form, but that doesn't mean the reporter queries coming King's way aren't alive and well.

And with his plan in place to avoid the spotlight amid what will be a one-track-minded media contingent in the Mile High City, King practiced his best deflection tactics before tip-off Friday night at Arco Arena.

"No Melo questions," he said when approached courtside.

Well, then how about that rookie forward who was offered as part of the deal?
