Carmelo Anthony reiterated during Wednesday's press conference at Madison Square Garden that he's glad the whole trade ordeal is over with.

After declaring that "New York basketball is back," Anthony admitted that it may take time for the Knicks to win an NBA title.

"Will we win a championship this year? Who knows, that takes time," he said while sitting next to Chauncey Billups.

The Knicks traded a good percentage of their depth to acquire Anthony and Billups, which leaves several holes in their roster they will need to address.
