They jump right on the bad things and ignore everything else.</div> Lot's of athletes are writing these childrens book...actors...etc...it's the new 'thing'. Considering how they are put out I think corporate people do most of the work and the celebrity gets the name on it. No need to get personal and bash me. That was not needed. Look, I found an ESPN article talking about Carmelo and the good he does, it even talks about his book. Turns out he does get some positive media, although he does in my opinion get trashed too much.http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/insider/col...estitial%3dtrue

He is seen in the last few scenes streaking up the court with Nate chasing him. Hit and run to the max!

Did you all see andre miller get tackled by nate? AT first I thought andre took him out, but watch it closely and he just throws him down. Nate is the man.

It was real smart of him to tackle miller like that right? that totally helped his team.

Melo is a piece of crap, as are the others involved. If you can't keep your cool, get your stupid immature ass off the court. We don't pay 50 bucks a f*cking ticket to watch idiots like melo sit around in a suit and smoke pot.</div>Carmelo is the piece of crap? Nate Robinson is the one who started the entire thing by pushing JR Smith and then taking swings at Smith and Anthony at the same time. I don't agree with what Carmelo did but he's not the one who started it.I love how the media makes Carmelo out to be the bad guy in every situation. You always hear about the bad stuff he does and the good stuff gets slid under the rug like it never happened. How many people know he wrote a children's book last year? Not many because the media didn't find it important enough.
lol I know, this whole thing is disgusting but I thought it was funny to see nate just completely DROP (not andre miller) JR smith
I dont know if anyone noticed. But Melo threw Fryes ass on the ground and Frye didnt do sh*t. Now Frye is a smart player if you look at his actions in the whole brawl. Most Players woulda knocked melo out.
How can any of you guys think this is cool or funny? This hurts the game and makes it look like everything the media wants it to look like: a thug league.

Most players in the league as a whole are extremely young, unprofessional and arrogant. If you think its MAKING IT LOOK LIKE its a thug league, I guess its deserved because the league in general as a whole is "thuggish", if you will.

Everyone in America is pussies nowadays, they have to have a f*cking posse, they wimp out on 1v1s. This was a bad foul but just take your 2 flagrant shots and man up.Well, Melo making a children's book(probably encouraging them to smoke pot) isn't as big as T.O. making one haha.
