Bad news for Webie Darling:

Denver countered with an offer of Allen Iverson or a package built around
Marcus Camby, but the Pistons are only interested in Anthony.

Two weeks ago, news leaked out of Denver that the Nuggets were interested in
acquiring Billups. Denver vice president of basketball Mark Warkentien
called Pistons president Joe Dumars to apologize for the leak and a
conversation ensued.
Warkentien confirmed that the Nuggets were interested in Billups and asked
who the Pistons might be interested in. Dumars said Anthony. As the
conversation progressed, Dumars added Prince to the discussion because,
obviously, Prince plays the same position as Anthony.
Warkentien said the Nuggets weren't looking to trade Anthony at that time,
and asked if Dumars would be interested in Marcus Camby or Allen Iverson.
Dumars said no. If the Nuggets wanted Billups, then they were going to have
to give up Anthony.
Got tissue?
