Ever since the Nuggets trip last week to New York, where Carmelo Anthony was asked about playing in Madison Square Garden, there has been a growing number of Nuggets fans wondering if the star forward would bolt Denver for New York.

Anthony clarified the situation a bit, saying he wasn’t insinuating he would look to play there when his contract expires after the 2011 season.

"Nah," he said. "I was just talking to the media. They asked me ‘How does it feel to play in The Garden?’ And I said ‘Anybody would love to play in Madison Square Garden.’ That’s all I said."
