<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Anthony made the offer of tickets at a party he hosted Sunday night, Mayo said. "I was talking to him like, 'Man, you're out pretty late. You've got a game tomorrow against Kobe [Bryant],' " Mayo said. "He said, 'Nah it will be all right.' And then he asked, 'You want to come to the game?' And I was like, 'Sure.' "</div> I found this quote in the LA Times today regarding the tickets Melo gave to OJ Mayo for the Laker game. Apparently Melo hosted a party on Sunday night and was out late, which Mayo called him out on. I know a lot of athletes party and enjoy the night life, but do you think Melo should tone it down and focus strictly on his career?
I know how much I could do at 23 after partying hard, so I have no problem with Melo doing it. Especially since he can get more sleep than I ever got.
If Melo's not breaking any team rules, then he should be able to do as he pleases. It's the team's fault if they don't have certain restrictions.

They are grown men for the most part and should be held accountable for their actions. I'm just wondering if Nugget fans are accepting of his lifestyle or would they rather him tone down the partying and focus on becoming one of their All-Time greats.
