The Houston Rockets have reportedly turned their full attention toward finding a way to acquire Carmelo Anthony, and it sounds as if the New York Knicks star is willing to do what he can to make that happen.
ESPN’s Ian Begley said Monday that Anthony is “confident” he will be traded to the Rockets in the near future.

The Rockets have already made a huge move this offseason when they traded for Chris Paul, and now they are trying to assemble a “Big Three” with Anthony. They also signed James Harden to a massive extension.
Houston is one of a select few teams that Anthony is reportedly willing to waive his no-trade clause for. Carmelo and Paul are close friends, though we’re all curious to see how Anthony would get along with Rockets coach Mike D’Antoni given the history between the two.
