LaLa And Melo Aren’t Feeling Manhattan Living


Carmelo may have just blown life back into the New York Knicks, but he and wifey have not intentions on paying property taxes to the City of New York… or the State of New York for that matter.

According to TMZ, the Vazquez-Anthonys are mansion shopping in Jersey.

Sources close to the NY Knicks star and his wife tell TMZ they have no interest in plunking down “$30,000 a month for an apartment” in Manhattan … no matter how shmancy it is.

Melo just got a $65 million contract extension, so money isn’t the issue — instead it’s all about a backyard and space for the couple’s 3-year-old son to play. We’re told that’s why they’re seriously shopping the wide open spaces of Jersey — and passing on a luxury pad near the one Alex Rodriguez just bought for $6 million.

Other NYC ‘burbs are still in the running, but If Melo keeps dropping 26 per game … he can live anywhere he wants (except Boston) — and Knicks fans will love him.
