Mind you Kobe, had double the made free throw attempts (which he made) and Carmelo left with more then seven minutes left in the game. He would’ve easily broken that 81 point mark if Mike Woodson let him.
Anthony attacked in a variety of ways with deadly turnaround jumpers, vicious slams and a half-court shot to beat the buzzer at the half. Even Charlotte assistant coach and former Knick great, Patrick Ewing, had to throw one up to the dome after a Melo three. Now that’s respect.
For haters out there who under mind this performance by saying it wasn’t great because it was against the Bobcats, it’s not like KD and LeBron don’t play them either.
Last night was special for basketball fans everywhere as we only see games like that every few years. Nobody is hotter than Carmelo when he’s in the zone and last night, he left his mark on this city. When you’re getting props from Bernard King, then you know you’re doing something right.
