    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The footage was shot in September while Anthony was visiting the West Baltimore neighborhood where he was raised.


    "The video happened right after the Olympics when I was home, so it's not like I'm doing something bad right now," he said.


    "I've been trying to, excuse my language, bust my (rear) trying to make everybody happy, trying to do things right around here. It's bad timing right now. Everything happens back-to- back-to-back-to-back."


    The DVD, which sells for $10, is "a hot item on the street," said Edward Marcinko, a spokesman with the Drug Enforcement Administration in Baltimore. Mar- cinko said his agency is not using it to identify possible drug dealers.


    As for the Baltimore Police Department, public information officer Nicole Monroe said the footage has been reviewed by police and "nobody in the DVD did anything arrestable. Freedom of speech."


    Anthony would love nothing more than to erase and re-record the two-month span from mid-August to mid-October.</div>

    I really don't believe Melo is a bad guy, I really just think the media and others are just finding him a easy target to pick on. And I'll tell ya what, having James and Wade playing at such a high level right now isn't making it much easier for him to deal with.

    I agree. The high and in all honesty un-attainable expectations are helping him dig a hole. And as much as he's got going 'against' him, he did dig this hole all by himself- gotta remember that.

    He'll move past it.

    Are you two sure aobut that? I'm not saying 'Melo is a bad guy, but come on. What kind of smart decision is that? He know's he will be under the public eye and scrutinized for every move he makes. Stupid move by Melo IMO, and that's all there is to it.
