I'm so happy Carmelo has run into trouble again. He's just a thug and an immature punk. He'll never be a superstar in the league.
Melo is not a thug, he threw a punch, firstly which wasn't needed and then ran away as Jeffries came after him.
from wathcing the replay, it seems that after the hard and dirty foul, Smith just got in Collins' face and body-shoved him a little, I wasn't sure if the fight would've escalated to the point it did, until Ronbinson came in and acted like a moron trying to slap everyone. He reminds me of a little chihuahua, all bark and no bite, just annoying. Yea, I'm really disappointed in Melo, seems like he was maturing now he just looks like an immature ass.

Told you guys from the beginning he was garbage. A disease. Showboating and now this... Its cool to be down for your crew, but you dont need to dance and throw gang signs to prove it.
Melo did the right thing by punshing that guy in the face, hes the one that initated the whole thing with that flagrant foul. As for Nate Robinson that lil punk is trying to act hard infront of the cameras what a posser.

I think not. Put yourself in someones shoes before your so quick to say what they should or shouldn't have done.

Let me see you in that situation. BTW, doesn't matter now. They replaced the NBA scoring leader with the second leading scorer. Denver'll be alright.
<div class="quote_poster">deception Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">and even worse he's a coward.</div> Yeah, he should've been a man, take on 4 Knicks, and get rushed while (if they didn't aquire Iverson) jeopordizing his teams season. Think about it for a second, if you punch someone, and the guy has 4 other friends coming after you are you going to 'be a man' (also being an idiot) and try to take on more than 1 person at the same time, or are you going to try to run? If you say the latter, then you are clearly blinded by hate.
