NEW YORK (WABC) -- It has been a rough couple of days for New York Knicks fans as one of their beloved players was traded.

Carmelo Anthony is no longer a Knick after being traded to the Oklahoma City Thunder for center Enes Kanter, forward Doug McDermott and the Chicago Bulls' 2018 second-round draft pick.

On Twitter, he made the trade official by posting a farewell letter to all of his devout Knicks fans.

Shortly after posting a heartfelt goodbye, there was an outpouring of nostalgia and sadness from fans:

Needless to say, many fans are sad to see Carmelo go, but it seems like the majority are wishing him the best of luck in Oklahoma City.
